If you mean Dwight Yoakam, he is very much alive.

All those who died before covid probably died of “Acute Indigestion.”

So says many of our family death certificates.

WARNING! If you suddenly start having chest pains and the DR says it is acute indigestion demand an EKG!

When I had chest pains they said it was probably acute indigestion. When it continued, an EKG was given and they found a blocked artery! I am here probably because I was on warfarin at the time. Now got a stent.

For all those saying they never heard of Charlie Robison, he was loved here in Texas.

He was not a big commercial country artist, but was well known in the Lone Star state among country and blues fans.
He also sometimes played classic rock covers at his shows.

I recommend checking out his music on YouTube.

I loved Charlie's music.

Not sure how I could survive without all the a-hole comments nowadays on F.R.

We still got Bruce and Kelly.

But Charlie pretty much started it all.

Did a magnificent cover of Kinky Friedman’s ‘Wild Man From Borneo’. That song makes me cry sometimes when thinking about an ex of mine. She used to call me that. She has since passed.
