Junior Brown at Willie's Place

Junior Brown played the Willie's Place theater Friday, April 17, 2009 at Willie Nelson's truck stop/restaurant/biofuel-station/theater along I-35 in Carl's Corners, TX. I have wanted to see Junior Brown play a live show ever since Curt introduced me to his music way back on Jane Street. He played his "steel-guit", and had two backing musicians, a drummer and a upright-bassist.

This was my first Junior Brown show, and I was stoked to see Junior Brown play "Broke Down South of Dallas" at Carl's Corner's about an hour south of Dallas:


He played a new song about "Green Chilies":


And this new one is called "You Do the Math":


If you get a chance to see Junior Brown play live, GO!!! We were buying tickets when an older couple asked if they should bother staying to see the show. "Junior Brown is about as Texas as country music gets. It's worth it!" That couple stayed, danced and loved the show. We missed the free show that Willie did yesterday at his own Theater to celebrate his 76th birthday (can you imagine that!!!), but we'll try to check his next local show this summer.
