A small crowd that I was in waited well over an hour once to see Jerry Lee
Lewis stumble onstage in a minor venue, late and drunk. Unbelievably, he
could still hammer that piano and hit his notes. Then, he stumbled off into
the dark. No encore!
The biggest venue I was ever in was the Reno Coliseum. It's small by coliseum
standards and with a roof. We watched Willie Nelson and the Outlaws. Willie
played his famous, worn out acoustic guitar.
I wanted to find a picture of the guitar on the Net and got this instead.
That´s it!
