We ate at Threadgill's in Austin Saturday night and this painting is hanging there. It was done by a local artist and is portraits of many of the people that performed at the Armadillo World Headquarters.
We could name a few of the people---how many can you figure out?
I know this isn't the best pic (I wish I could make it alittle larger), but here is a hint

Great shot, Molly. I have been trying to name the artist since I saw your photo. Thanks for sharing.

Isn't the guy with long hair that surfpirate called riff raff, Jimmie Dale Gilmore?

We thought it was one of the Winters---Johnny or Edgar
I ask our waitress about the pic and she said it was done by a local Austin artist and they were people that had played at the AWHQ, but that's all she knew.

Is this Willis Alan Ramsey right up front?
