I’ve done and seen some cool stuff in my time.\u00a0 Caught a sailfish off the coast of Costa Rica.\u00a0 Sat in the endzone seats as Barry Sanders caught the 1988 season opening kickoff and subsequently returned it over a 100 yards for a touchdown.\u00a0 I was on the 12th row, on the floor, for a 1991 AC\/DC concert.\u00a0 Been in the John Deere factory and drove new equipment off the delivery trucks.<\/p>\n
Friday evening we went to Luckenbach, TX.\u00a0 I’ve been there before.\u00a0 It has such a cool atmosphere.\u00a0 The ladies bought some t-shirts.\u00a0 I talked to people about my new hat.\u00a0 We then meandered over to the concert hall.\u00a0 It was unlocked.\u00a0 We walked in, looked around and discussed the heritage of the building.\u00a0 They had the stage and doorways to backstage roped off.\u00a0 I was just standing there in my new hat when the backdoor opened.\u00a0 A lady was carrying some musical gear.\u00a0 I asked if she needed help.<\/p>\n
She said, “I’ll gladly take any help carrying all of this stuff.<\/p>\n
I asked, “Is it fine for me to come past this rope.”<\/p>\n
“Come on!”\u00a0 \u00a0 She did not have to repeat herself.<\/p>\n
I grabbed a bag full of mics & cables with one hand and an amp with the other.\u00a0 And on stage I went.\u00a0 I made a couple of quick trips.\u00a0 Then, hollered at the Dragon Lady to take a pic of me on stage in Luckenbach, Tx.\u00a0 Standing there reminded me of Churchill Downs and Fenway Park.\u00a0 You can feel the history.<\/p>\n
I exited the other side of the stage, into the room known as Hondo’s Hilton.\u00a0 This was cool.\u00a0 There was a wall decorated with lots of pics of Waylon Jennings from all phases of his career.<\/p>\n
The group was called Shannie.\u00a0 There were 2 guitar players and a lady that did a lot of the singing.\u00a0 They were mostly a vocal group.\u00a0 Very talented.\u00a0 It is amazing how many people are extremely talented but, for whatever the reason, just can’t hit the big time.<\/p>\n
Kind of like show animals.\u00a0 There are a lot of good ones but only a couple truly become great.\u00a0 Nonetheless, we stayed and listened to the show.\u00a0 I wore my new hat.\u00a0 This was a really cool evening with good music and cool friends.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My question though, does this make me a roadie?<\/p>\n
