Anyone heard from Cory Morrow lately?... I like that guy.



Kim said she saw him at work the other day, he is still playing. He has some legal fees to pay off i'm sure.:D

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

How can you all make these lists and forget Texas heroes ZZTop. That's right, they were actually proclaimed Heroes of Texas.

Lawrocket isn't even Texan and he's impressed me with his knowledge of Texas musicians.

I can't believe my hometown boy Buddy Holly just got mentioned....

And surprising that no one mentioned the other Lubbock family, Natalie Maines.
Wait, no, everyone hates her, ignore that she's from Texas. But her dad/uncles, The Maines Brothers, were a really good old band and I lived in one of their family's houses growing up.

Well, for you really old farts, how about Buddy Holly and Janis Joplin????



My mom was good friends with Janis Joplin in junior high and I used to visit Janis mom in the summer with my grandmother in Port Arthur.:)

Texas music kicks ass!

This year I'm driving my truck instead of my bike, so I'm bringing my gee-tar and my tab book. Apperently others are doing the same, it should be a badass Texas music jam session!B|

I just thought of another great - Joe Ely. I was cleaning through stuff and packing and I found my Joe Ely CD. Tossed that on and chilled with a beer.

And I've got four CD's of the Reverend Horton Heat. They were awesome!

Me too.:o:D



My love of Texas music started in august, 1995. I was doing some time at Ft. Hood and took a weekend to go to Austin. EYe opening, to say the least.

I also have a couple of exes from Texas. One of them turned me on to the old school stylings of Joe Ely and Charlie RObison, cats like that.

Whew. I was starting to get worried that noone else had heard of one of my top three favorite Texas musicians.

That would be Joe Ely . . . nothing against the Reverend!
