About Me

I'm drinkin' me some George Jones, and a little bit of Coe...
Haggard's easin' my misery, and Waylon's keepin' me from home...
Hank's givin' me those high times, Cash is gonna sing it low...
And I'm here gettin' wasted with all my country heroes.

Visiting an old friend.

I don’t think I was ever a real huge "head." I dabbled quite a bit, but was never really one of those guys that always had a huge stash. Actually, come to think of it, I did have something on ha...
