Tom Wopat will not be at 2007 Dukefest

He has a contract obligation to Chicago musical.

Cooter's Place website has posted about this.

Well, it's great that Tom's show is doing so well and I understand him being obligated by contract. But, it really is disappointing that Luke won't be there. He looked like he had a ball last year! I think he was surprised that the crowd was so glad he was there, but I don't know why he was surprised. He is still my favorite Duke boy but I must say that Bo / John has really gotten better with age!!!

We'll sure miss ya this yearTom! Hope to see ya again in 2008!

Tom's website does have a message board and email available.

Completely untrue. Tom is touring with the "CHICAGO" musical and had contractual obligations with that, which prevented him from attending DukesFest. Boiled down to a schedule conflict.

Tom did have a DUI charge last year, but it did not cause him to miss any scheduled performances.

Hey Brian, besides Tom, do you know who else will or will not be coming? I'm sure John will be there but what do you know about the others? I'm gone.
