We went to see Jerry Jeff at Gruene Hall Saturday night. It was one of his first shows after his back surgery and it seemed to be having a great time!
He was playing great and telling stories.
One of this stories was about his Grandfather hooking up his team of horses, Jinks and Jane, to the wagon and going to the local college in NY and taking the college for a hayride with sleigh bells hooked to the harnnesses. He said they were singing carols and having a wonderful. Something he has always remembered.
Another story he told was during the first Willie Picnic. There were a bunch of them at Willie's house singing and in walked a clown and midget. They were both clowns with the Barnum Bailey circus and one of the clowns, Billy Jim Baker, taught JJ Contrary to Ordinary. On the back on that CD is a pic of JJ as a clown. They became good friends and JJ got to perform with the circus as a clown in the clown car. The midget's name as ThunderFart
He also did Redneck Mother Christmas edition M is for Mistletoe
O is for Oraments
T is for Tinsel
H is for Holly
E is for Egg Nog, Elk (ya'll remember Rudolph the rednosed reinELK) or Elves R is for REDNECK
I have some videos and pics that I will try to get downloaded asap.

Which stands to reason-I'd have a hell of a time trying to go to his concert after I die.
Uh March in Texas? Will be a grand time!!!! We saw him last year at New World? In Austin - he definately was in pain there - a good show but you knew there was omre to see. Django was great.
Come come back to Texas!!!
And raccoons brought wine and the mice they brought cheese...

Believe me, I'd LOVE to.
But my inner voice is telling me the next time I head for Texas (a.k.a.-REAL America), it will be with a one way ticket.
So you'd better give me a little time to get some affairs in order.

When JJW's in NYC/BBKing's then O is for Oneonta his hometown and likely the upstate college in his story. SP, any chance you can remember the setlist? Seeing JJW in March.
I know Jimmy Buffett, Jimmy Buffett is a friend of mine. Son, you're no Jimmy Buffett!
