Anyway, they had to help him out on stage and sat him in a chair where he stayed the whole time. He could barely walk. He still put on a great show and played most of his hits and a couple of his x rated songs.
Props to him for doing that in such poor health. Love him or hate him you have to respect the fact he was authentic and didn’t give a frick

say that as a huge George Jones fan too. Jones's version is good, but not as good as Coe's. Stapleton's version is absolute garbage
I judge people’s country music fanhood by asking them who originally wrote Tennessee Whiskey and who has the best version.
You’re in the God tier if you know it was originally a GJ song, because most don’t.

It's not like he has 1,000 songs all saying the n word. He has two non-mainstream albums, nothing sacred and underground. Those two have the controversial songs on them. But he also has 40 studio albums.

For all of DAC’s antics, self-sabotage, and outlaw reputation; He was one of the finest songwriters of love songs and heartbreak that’s ever lived.
They’re not my cup of tea, but he’s rarely credited for being a great songwriter of that genre.

Supposedly a patched member of Outlaws MC. I've never seen verification, but he did hang around with them and Waylon had an Outlaws bodyguard for a while.

It wasn’t originally a Jones song. Dean Dillon wrote it, Coe recorded it first, then Jones.

“wasn’t originally a Jones song. Dean Dillon wrote it, Coe recorded it first, then Jones.”
All true. And it’s still a George Jones song. Once George sang it, it’d been sung.

Typically I would agree with this statement except that I actually prefer Coe’s version of TW.
Tennessee Whiskey is a David Allan Coe song.

“I need a little time off for bad behavior
The devil in me done been asleep too long
I need a little time off for bad behavior
It looks like I've been too good for too long
I'm up at dawn at the crack of dawn
I've been working like a regular dog
To keep my woman and the lights and the water and the phone turned on
I've been saying yes sir all day at work
I've been saying yes ma'am at home
I've been storing up the frick you's
Keepin' em under my tounge”

That’s one of my favorite DAC songs, along with “Living on the Run” and “The Ride”
Living on the Run is underrated.

Was at the show at Robert E. Lees in Hammond the night Waylon died.
You mean the one where he had Waylon written across his forehead backwards. Like he did it himself in the mirror? Nah, I wasn’t there either.
I believe it was Valentines Day IIRC.

Saw DAC 25 years ago at the New Daisy in Memphis. Ties with Chris Ledoux for best concert I have seen.

How in the hell did someone that lived like he did (at least in his younger years) live to be this old?
