Think it's going to clue me in on the Armadillo and your history. After seeing that show Saturday night, I know I need to have that understanding. And even though I don't know all of the details yet, thank you for everything I'm about to learn. Saving the Armadillo saved Austin music, that much I do know.<br />Take care,<br />DebbieDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532582549976560888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8683686613161907026.post-28544694633748083902010-08-10T23:01:32.242-05:002010-08-10T23:01:32.242-05:00Nice review, Debbie.

Denny was also the guitarist for the band back in 1979 when I produced a fabulous live album of them that never got released. That will come to market sometime in early spring next year.hank alrichhttp://www.hankalrich.comnoreply@blogger.com
