WAYLON AND A HINT OF THINGS AHEAD!
Upon further reflection, I thought it might be fun to mention that my Guest coming up on "THE INTERVIEW" was close friends with this gentleman, the legendary Waylon Jennings. He also had quite a bit to do with this song.

On a musical note, Elvis Presley and Waylon Jennings were probably the most influential male singers in my life. The first songs I ever heard from Waylon were "The Days of Sand and Shovels" and his rendition of "MacArthur Park". A friend of mine who was a gifted drummer attended a concert by Waylon Jennings. I heard about it for weeks on end. He told me that everywhere he looked, the "WAYLON" logo was emblazoned on tractor trailers, on shirts, and as is plainly seen in this short video, definitely on stage. There was never any question who you were seeing at this concert even without the bold, electric sign. His powerful baritone vocals carried a sincerity that I believe many fans recognized and related to.-
This has been a very busy week. Has your week been hectic? I ask that because I saw a full Moon while driving along the freeway last night. See you soon!Michael

It's been a SLOW week but really glad it's the weekend! Have a good one Michael!
It's been a crazy week--but I leave Tuesday for a week on the NC Coast... I took a kayak out on a lake Tuesday night--after sunset--and enjoyed watching the full moon rise.
Waylon Jennings? Cool I am looking forward to the interview Michael.
I hope the busy week is going great!
