When he is singing home of the blues, the young man he is shaking hands with, is Chris Izaks’ doppelgänger.

О вы тоже слушаете Джонни Кэша?

[@gmmaal7161]

Strangely, he doesn't sing anything from his first Columbia album.

[@troymcclure4971]

@@gmmaal7161 This has to be 1958. No way he would ignore the Columbia material.

Man those guys are just so f'ing weird. They definitely read MadMax magazine. A great performance!

For some context on the gunshots you heard. Marshall would carry a pistol with blanks with him. When John was done with his Elvis impression, he would hand the comb back to Marshall who would throw it on the ground like it had a bug on it, and "shoot" it with the pistol. In his book, he talked about how the first time they played Folsom Prison that he accidentally forgot he had it and brought it into the prison. A guard or the warden confiscated it.

What was talking about when he said how do you turn this thing down

[@thesoundchekguy]

If the pictures are from the show, then the microphone was plugged into the amplifier behind him.

[@jesiahHernandez]

Oh

[@jesiahHernandez]

Is that what he was talking about tho

[@thesoundchekguy]

@@jesiahHernandez Not sure. Back in those days, places didn't have any good sound systems so a lot of the times microphones were plugged into guitar and accordian amplifiers to project the sound.

[@jesiahHernandez]

@@thesoundchekguy oh so back in the day they didn't have sound systems or speakers
