    I made this compilation to make it easier for people to find all of these stories. These are all clips from interviews I've done over the last year or so. Feel free to send a link to your favorite Waylon fan.
    I made a similar video a couple of years ago and people seemed to really enjoy it. Here it is in case you missed it. ua-cam.com/video/hux7VZe4EHc/v-deo.html

    Waylon Jennings is the greatest singer that ever lived. But I might be biased😊

      Waylon talked about all that in his autobiography. There's even an audio version of him reading the entire thing on youtube.

    Jerry Lee Lewis played my junior high school in Lebanon, indiana. Hit me up for the story, Otis. My first Waylon show was at the Indy Coliseum in Nov. 1967. Among the headliners were Tammy, Merle, Waylon (all three who were just really beginning to take off), Tompall and the Glaser Bros., Jim Ed Brown (post Browns), Hank Snow, and Don Gibson. Those WIRE shows were the best!

      If you didn't drive him to or from, we don't really care. You just told the whole story. He came you saw the end. Congratulations on seeing it. But the story we want is a bit more information than you bought a ticket and he played these songs.

      @@smsnc20, how about the fact I lived across the street from the school and Jerry Lee tried picking up my sister after the show? Jerry Lee's appearance was announced just hours before the show.

      Pay no mind to these miserable lumps responding to you. They don't feel right unless they can rain on somebody's parade.

    Had Thanksgiving dinner at Waylons secretary's house in 1977. Waylon, Ray Price, David Alan Coe and Terry Jennings. Terry back his new Trans AM into someone's car that day.
    He came in and said " who's car i just hit? That's my dad Waylon, we'll get your car fixed. We don't need to call the police.

    Billy Joe shaver had big respect for Waylon’s traveling with tnt😂. Me too. Why people would try to screw over Jennings and David Allen coe of all people is bizzare. Absolutely love these interviews, usually download and listen off grid but beach one is a gem and very important.💚🙏🏻

      Stuff like that happens because the business of promoting shows and running venues tends to attract a lot of real sleazy types who aren't quite clever enough to be used car salesmen.

      AND WHAT OF THE PROMOTER THAT ASKED WAYLON TO PLAY THE NIGHT BUDDY HOLLY DIED,THEN SHOWED WAYLON THE CONTRACT THAT STATED THE BUDDY HOLLY WAS SUPPOSED TO APPEAR.,THE SCUMBAG USED THE
      CONTRACT TO NOT PAY WAYLON (& CO.)
      I THINK THIS STORY WAS TOLD HERE
      SAYING THAT WAYLON WAS SPEAKING TO TEENS ABOUT THE MUSIC BUSINESS,WAYLON USED THE STORY TO ILLUSTRATE THE MUSIC BUSINESS.
      PATHETIC PPL. ARE EVERYWHERE.
      BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE
      IN THE WORLD!!

    Smuggler's Blues: "You got to carry weapons, 'cause you always carry cash." That applies when people are paying you in cash, too.
    The thing to remember about promoters and venue owners is, that business tends to attract a lot of real sleazy types who aren't quite clever enough to be used car salesmen. So some weird shit is gonna happen now and then.
