YOu'll never find him AOO. I told him to watch out for two IRS dudes dressed as Army guys!

Willie didn't put on a bad show...the cool thing was I got tickets at the last minute and was only 8 rows back from center stage....

That was a cool show. Thanks Drifter

AOO and Kodiak,

Thanks for the posts on the show. I had tickets and couldn't make it. Had to work from 6A to 8P, so the tickets (2) went unused.

Does his sis still play piano in the band? When I saw Willie last (in '86, I think) at the Kansas State Fair, she did. She played her piano so hard that the single rose (in a vase) that she placed on the instrument at the show's start kept moving on it's own and had to be re-placed at the center after every 2 or 3 songs. Willie's great, I'll bet he had a good mix of country and rock in the show.

Despite his historical significance (writer of many of Patsy Cline's songs), my bet is that Waylon will prevail in matters of real consequence, being part of Buddy Holly's band, etc). Waylon walked the country/rock line better than anyone before or since. But Willie has my respect for all he's done. Glad you boys enjoyed the show... wish I coulda been there.

The show was awesome! I feel fortunate to see the legend while he's still around.

You Rock, Willie!!

Yes, His sister was on the piano. It was a pretty good show I think. He played all of his hits combined with some stuff from his new cd. He also sang "Me and Bobby McGhee". The crowd was pretty lively and reacted well to his music. I wish they would have concerts here more often of this caliber or higher. Dodge HAD to make money off the show...every eatery in town was packed before the show.

Everybody had the "munchies", huh??

Willie's just one of those natural ability entertainers. Being an old picker myself I love to set back and watch an entertainer work a crowd. I always wanted to know how it was done, but I've learned you either have or you don't.

I was kind of disappointed he didn't do Good olé boys.

I had a great time

I'm an "old picker" too, Detector. Of course, picking your ass, your nose, and your ears counts doesn't it?? Heck, some days I am even ambidextrous, as I can pick my nose and scratch my balls at the same time!

When are we gonna have a "Detector and the Delaware Destroyers" concert?? Tee's backyard would work good for a "fundraiser"!
