Several times in the late 70s early 80s. Then a 25 year gap for me until he did it again at Charlotte last year.

Gentilly ... 42 years is a long time to wait .... a Northeast Texas woman can hope.

Great Woods 2008. And what was cool was that the band started to come back on stage and he waved them off, which means it may well have been a spontaneous addition, which means it was without teleprompter!

Take me for what I am, a star newly emerging.

Re: Have You Seen Jimmy Perform "God's Own Drunk" in Person?
Yep, I saw this one. I remember being so pumped to here it, but everyone I was with was relatively new to the game, so i'm not sure it registered with most of them.

"I need to start growing up," I thought to myself the other day, as I sat in my pillow fort.

2008 in Charlotte. I don't think a lot of people realized what a treat we were getting.

Re: Have You Seen Jimmy Perform "God's Own Drunk" in Person?
Totally. He'd just done WDWGDAS, the band started to come back and he waved them off. I was close enough that I swear I saw one band member ask him, "Are you sure?" and Jimmy grinned and waved him off again. It was AWESOME!popcornjack wrote:He called an audible!!!SchoolGirlHeart wrote:Great Woods 2008.

Re: Have You Seen Jimmy Perform "God's Own Drunk" in Person?
Vegas '07. I was happy to see and hear it live. Never really enjoyed the recorded version. (It's a story, and stories should be told live.) On our way out, some woman behind me said, "What was that dumb song about the bear? Never heard that one before. Maybe it's new.".........I held my tongue and my husband squeezed my hand.
