What began as a hilarious gift from a friend, has snowballed into an exciting new musical project that's gaining unbelievable momentum.  When Jim Hamilton presented Terry with a T-shirt he had created exclaiming, "Drunk Chicks Think I'm Hot" and the lyrics he had penned for an accompanying song, it made Terry laugh so hard he knew Jim was onto something big.  Terry added a few lines of his own, set it to music and laid down a rough demo that he played for Jim who was so enthusiastic about the collaboration that he and Terry formed a partnership right there - JT Productions, Inc.  Before they knew it, the song was in production, the CD's were scheduled for roll out, the hilarious new lyrics were added to the T-shirt design and the positive feedback was incredible.  In support of the single, "Drunk Chicks Think I'm Hot," Terry and Jim recently shot a video on location at Borrowed Bucks in Sioux Falls, SD.  The video is slated for airing on FOX TV's "Hot Country Videos" sometime in June and will be available for distribution soon.  "Drunk Chicks Think I'm Hot" has got country radio DJ's buzzing already and should be hitting the airwaves shortly.  Check out a sound clip here and get all the latest on this growing project at drunkchicksthinkimhot.com

Terry looks forward to participating in the 2005 event scheduled for September 10-11th returning to the Crooks Gun Club in Sioux Falls, SD.
