February was a slow month...

I didn't go out as much as usual but I did managed to catch a few bands:

Friday, February 9th - Friend A came over and we went to the Armadillo Palace to see Jarrod Birmingham and Friend J met up with us there. There was a decent size crowd there that night and most seemed to enjoy the band. We had a good time...

Thurday February 22nd - Sister K and I volunteered to work at the BBQ cookoff at the Reliant. I've never served so much food in my life. Thank the gawds the beer was free and I drank plenty...we actually saw Dan Pastorini out there. We saw Gary P. Nunn do a set, a few songs by Darryl Dodd and Jerry Jeff Walker was playing but we couldn't see him for the fence. lol Some of those cook off people take it and their bands toooo seriously...

Saturday February 24th - Went to see Wayne "the train" Hancock at Fitzgerald's. Saw some old friends and had a great time.

Wednesday February 28th - since my kids backed out at the last minute, I wound up taking the neighborhood boys to see Los Lonely Boys @ the rodeo. I was pissed at first but then realized that some of the kids I took with me probably wouldn't have got to go to the rodeo at all if I hadn't taken them.

BeeGees Burn Down Johnny Cash's House

OK...OK! That's not what I think happened. That's what I heard on the radio this AM and it make me laugh. Click on the title above to read the entire article.

HENDERSONVILLE, Tennessee (AP) -- Johnny Cash's longtime lakeside home, a showcase where he wrote much of his famous music and entertained U.S. presidents, music royalty and visiting fans, was destroyed by fire on Tuesday.
Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash, lived in the 13,880-square-foot (1,289-square-meter) home from the late 1960s until their deaths in 2003.
"So many prominent things and prominent people in American history took place in that house -- everyone from Billy Graham to Bob Dylan went into that house," said singer Marty Stuart, who lives next door and was married to Cash's daughter, Cindy, in the 1980s.
