The live music series is free; however, all who attend are asked to make a food or monetary donation to the San Antonio Food Bank. The 2009 music series raised more than 35,775 pounds of food for the Food Bank.

“We are so excited to celebrate our tenth anniversary of this free music series started by Randy Goss as a great way to support Texas musicians, and bring much needed help to the San Antonio Food Bank," says Skeeter Miller, owner/president (dishwasher, cook, host, etc….), County Line. “And yes, no one can replace the Rib King—he was bigger than life—but one thing we can do is keep this great music series going that he loved so much...and that's what we are going to do!”

“As we continue to serve more families in need, we count on The County Line and its Live Music Series to help us meet that demand,” says Eric Cooper, executive director, San Antonio Food Bank. “We have more than doubled the number of people we are helping with emergency food assistance since 2006, and we couldn’t do that without the support of the community and The County Line.”
