Help Fill Gary's Memory Book - Post Your Gary Story and Win the Floater Rising Tribute Album

Gary has a mind like a trap door. Like swiss cheese. Frankly, his memory is shot.

With the re-emergence of 9 nearly lost Gary Floater songs on the new tribute record Floater Rising (only rediscovered thanks to Flip Dickerson's crack team of first graders who could read Gary's misspelled manuscripts), Gary realizes there are other significant gaps - canyons really - in his memory.

Gary does remember the scrapbooking craze well - he even wrote a song about it - "I Drew Myself In (To A Picture of You)."

He also remembers that Conway Twitty rejected the song and refused to record it.

So he has asked you to help him fill his digital scrapbook.

In a rare show of gratitude, Gary has promised to send a digital download copy of the new tribute record to 10 of the folks who post some his favorite recovered memories.

At first glance, it might seem impossible that he was all these places and made love to/ sang with/ pissed off all these people, but before his license was revoked, he drove his car pretty fast.

So if you could post a 2 or 3 sentences to jog his memory about those old times, that would be great.

If you want, you can start with "I heard that Gary once... " or "Gary, I remember when you..." 

Post your Gary memory here or in the comments section below! 

Winners of the tribute album will be notified by email or in a message on Facebook on April 1- Floater Rising release day!
