Thanks Jeff! (And Redhead)

I'll definitely be tuning into Etta James 8) and others.

"The Heartless Bastards"? Wish I'd thought of that :lol:

:lol: Asleep at the Wheel used to play several area nightclubs here. I really shouldn't tell this story, but I can't pass this up.

Back in the 70's, you know, when we were young, wild and very crazy, Asleep at the Wheel used to frequent a club in Kilgore called "The Sands". We were probably 18 or 19 at the time, and hung out at "The Sands Club" all the time anyway. One night when "Asleep" was playing there, during a $3.00 all you can drink night, on which we took FULL advantage, we decided to steal this cool looking Asleep at the Wheel sign outside the club. Kilgore is about 20 miles from here, the sign was painted on a full sheet of 4' by 8' plywood, and we were in a Volkswagon. Let your imagination do the rest. Right down Interstate 20, we looked like an airplane, wings and all, leaning forward, all crouched over, this thing hanging out of the window on either side. We made it somehow, through the night, and through the next several years. Miracles really do happen........don't have a clue what happened to the "Asleep" sign. And you know, I'd kill my sons if they ever attempted half the stuff.

BTW, great "Swing" band! Friday at 12:30 on AMD on your ACL calendar Jeff.
