Gravestone for Donnie Lee Kretzschmar.

In Heavenly Concert honors the memory of Showco alumni who have passed on. This page is a living tribute to the sound engineers, crew members, and FOS (friends of Showco) whose passion and dedication shaped the legacy of live music. Each name listed here represents a story, a tour, and a life lived in the spirit of music and camaraderie.

I invite fellow alumni, friends, and family to share photographs, memories, or links to official obituaries as I preserve and celebrate their contributions together.

This list is growing. I'm re-entering each alumnus by hand from the original site, so bear with me as I bring everyone back home.
