Now don't tell me...I've nothing to do...

Actually it's:

...playing solitaire til dawn...

But I'm the official historian on Shirley Jean Burrell...eh...or something like that. Moms had a Statler Brother's Greatest Hits Eight Track tape when I was just a lad...LOL

yes. I agree Canton. If there were justice in the world, and we insisted on having a Winter Storm Warning Super Bowl--- Cleveland should get it, not New York.

threadjack trivia: I see yall are stumped. here's a clue. It was a live recording at a rather large rodeo.

Well, let's see.....was it a rodeo in....hmmmm...maybe in Hum..... no can't be. Was it in Hou.....nah. Can't think of a place that has a large rodeo.

nono... dont tell me.... let me guess.... could it be????

Actually, Yat, most people dont know this, but a lot of major cities have rodeos, even San Francisco. (jokes withheld) The biggest event in the sport is in Calgary. Of course we are more familiar with the PRCA Finals, which is Rodeo's "super bowl" in Vegas.

You got it, though. Charlie Pride recorded his cover of Hank's "Kaw Liga" at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo in ? 1969? Could be '68. You can hear the crowd in the recording. I was there, as a little kid, and vividly remember the Astrodome that night.
