Old Goat’s High School Pic

by Frank Paynter on April 9, 2005

This is by way of another tribute to RB… he of EGR where Capricorn conquers.  I found this picture in an old cigar box way down in the Jesus Bunker.  (Actually, I found it over by EuroYank, where the kraut hits the dog, or vice versa.  And I found EuroYank by following a link out of a Loose Poodle comment thread.  Anyway, doesn’t this just make you smile?

Haggard/Dylan

by Frank Paynter on April 9, 2005

Okie from Muskogee opens for godless hippie commie rat poet bastid…

Coulda been the headline.  I asked Emily from Shorewood to tell me about the concert.  Here’s what she said,

Totally killer.

Bob played harmonica and keyboard all night. Dressed very dapper and
cowboy-ish. The band totally rocked and "All Along the Watchtower" was
kinda funky/reggae. Sort of dire-straight ish and super tight.

Could hear and see really well from where we were.

Here is the set list:

Merle Haggard was one of the opening bands and he was great too. We
were a little late and missed the first band, Amos Lee, and part of
Haggard.
