I spent a
couple years in the early 90s paying my dues singing in
a Texas Country-Western Cover Band. These shots were taken at
a Lockhart, TX Honky-Tonk, about 45 minutes south of
Austin |
My favorite
thing about this photo is the tinsel background they had
at this San Antonio club. You just know you're playin'
a high-class joint when there's tinsel hanging off the
back of the stage. I kept waiting for go-go girls to
pop out, but they never did. |
We played Luling Watermelon Thump
Festival in front of 10,000 people in 1993. I caught
some flack for the "Cowboy Boots/Hat With Tie-Die Shirt
and Long Shorts" look... but hey when it's 95 degrees at
night, you gotta stay cool somehow. The shot at right
is of a girl being tossed into the air in front of me,
during a jitterbug (Hank Jr.'s "Born to Boogie" if I'm
not mistaken). We had that place a jumpin'.
