A Dream Weekend!

WOW! We've hit the 300 views mark here on the 'ol blog!

Thanks friends!

This weekend is a big one for me. Anyone who knows me knows how I feel about Robert Earl Keen. Any time I get to go see him live it's such a treat and I always enjoy it. I never go to shows alone but I've gone to see REK at the Wormy Dog in OKC on a Wednesday night alone before. I love him that much!!! Anyway, my Aunt Carla got me four VIP tickets for his show at the WinStar Casino in Thackerville, OK for this Friday night. My dear friend Rene' and her husband Dale are also coming! This is Dale's first REK experience and I hope he digs it!

Then I find out that the lengendary Billy Joe Shaver is playing right here in Chickasha on Saturday night! I almost fell over when I heard that! I may just die of musical happiness on Sunday!

Found this old REK video on YouTube. It's from an old show called "The Texas Connection" hosted by Jerry Jeff Walker. He still had the "junior" attached to his name back then! I would guess it was the early 90's. Bryan Duckworth was playing fiddle in the band and that makes this little gem even more enjoyable. I've always liked the tune "Jesse With The Long Hair Hanging Down." Good stuff!
