The Sons of the Pioneers burst onto the Western music scene in 1934—and made a star of Roy Rogers. More than 75 years later, the legendary ensemble remains the world’s premiere cowboy singing group.

Chuckwagon Jamboree Oct 2010 - Branson
MO Cowboy — Tue, 2010-07-27 09:37
Each year, the members of the Chuckwagon Association of the West get together for a "Jamboree". It's a chance to say thanks to our loyal guests and a chance to swap bean recipes with the other chuckwagon groups.
This year, for the first time ever, the Jamboree will be held in Branson, Missouri, at Branson's Circle B Theatre! Each night will feature a different cowboy menu, with a different slate of performers, and different special guests!
Some folks have asked how this may be different from prior Jamborees.
1. We seat a maximum of about 370 guests, so you will get a closer, more intimate experience than some past Jamborees.
2. Because of our smaller number of seats, we are making 4 Jamboree show nights available, and offering different meals and special acts, to encourage folks to come to all 4 shows.
3. We are pleased to offer reasonably-priced tickets that are a bargain compared to other Branson shows, with a full meal included each night -- and a huge discount on the fourth night's tickets! About 3 hours of entertainment are scheduled for each night.
4. Doors open at 4:15 PM with free popcorn and cowboy movies.
This year's lineup is as follows:
October 24 Sunday
1. Riders of the Circle B (Branson)
2. Circle B Cowboys (Black Hills)
3. Dusty Rogers (speaking on Roy Rogers Riders Club rules)
4. Bar –D Wranglers
October 25 Monday
1. Flying W Wranglers
2. Circle B Cowboys (Black Hills)
3. John Wain (John Wayne impersonation)
