Actually the list is in order of performance, so Mickey is performing next
to last. There is generally no real order to performances at Kerrville,
but in my experience, unless the closer is the Spankers or the Austin
Lounge Lizards, the closing role is not that great a spot because people
are already drifting back to campfires where the real action is anyway.
