Some good answers from the Hag, but that interviewer came off like a clueless mark. Then again that's the target market for that mag I'm sure so what
do I know?
The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, ?You know, I want to set those people over there on
fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin

You gotta love the Simpsons references thrown in there. "I'm a singin' hobo, not a stabby hobo".
Great interview.

Saw Merele,twice...The last time that I saw him was about 12 years ago in Kc,Mo. ...He played around the corner from one of the clubs that I
babysat...I took the night off,and got comped along with a female friend of mine to the concert..'Long story,longer - my friends that went to the show
stood right up front,literally 2 or 3 feet away from Merle...By the middle of the set,he was visually affected bymy friend's yelling for "Fightin'
Side Of Me"..."OKAY! OKAY!! HERE YA GO,ALRIGHT??"...He played it....I love Merle...And a ton of old country...I just don't find myself listening to a
lot of it,ever...I don't know why...But,NO,You can't buy my old records....I still love them...I just never play them...Thank you for listening.
Will learn to Tap Dance,eventually...Will have you broads Hula,definitely...Trust me,you'll see.

Saw Merle a few weeks ago and also had the pleasure of meeting him before the show. Good guy, it was a really cool experience.
BKT.
