Nice piece. Met Joe back in his country days and saw him open for the Clash at the Dallas Palladium. Wish I could post a photo on here. I have a good one of Joe backstage that night. Will e-mail it to you. Check your inbox.
I met Lloyd Maines through Terri Hendrix, while I was booking music for venues in Bell County, and got to visit with him on several occasions over the years. I sensed right away that he was a gentleman in every sense of the word, and his life story -- giving up the road for his family, opting for music with Terri rather than hotter, glitzier gigs he was offered -- left me in awe. Lubbock and Texas should be proud of their native son and all he has accomplished.
