I took my cousin to see Hank Jr in 1982 here in memphis at the Coliseum because she loved his music and had never been to a live concert. We got the full entertainment package:a guy getting arrested for scalping tickets,a guy getting arrested for fighting the police when they told him to take his whiskey out of his boot, and "Lord Almighty,Doug,what is that smell and why is this guy handing me a lit cigarette to pass on?" I think the best part was Rockin' Randall Hank ending the show with Kaw Liga and shooting his 30-30 into the audience(hopefully) loaded with blanks.

Instead of taking the free ride doing nothing but covers he made his own legacy. And when he does cover he gives it new breath. But what do I know?

When I was 12 or 13 I use to go and deliver papers with my sisters bf dustin. We would cruise around Palatka and San Mateo, down back dirt roads, from 12am to 6am, and that is the first time that I fell in love with Hank Williams Jr. With the highest tweeters you've ever heard in a 90's model hard body Nissan with brass eagels on it. Still can feel this song deep in my soul. He told me a ghost story about San Mateo Dirt Rd. next to a cemetary about a motorcyclist that died on that road and sometines you can see his light and you know whats crazy we actually seen it one night ran straight through us while this song played in the background. One memory I won't ever forget and I have been hooked on Hank ever since!!! Good ole days in 2000 2001 times were so much more slower and better than. Keep the Hank tradition alive.

Win, win. I saw David Allan Coe twice. 1 time at a small venue which was amazing. Then I saw him at a larger venue and he stopped playing, and if you know Coe, you know why. Once the "issue" was fixed he played again and truly put on a show.
