Waylon Jennings was doing a show at the Capitol Music Hall in Wheeling in 1994 which I believe is the last show he performed there. I had seen Waymore in concert a ton of times, but I really had wanted to try and get an autograph this time. Waylon wasn't known for sitting around hours after the show and signing autographs. I bought a picture book at the concessions booth before the show, and I snuck out early to try and catch Waylon on his way to the bus. I had worked at the Capitol so I had access to area's that the public did not. I was standing there in the rain, trying to keep my picture book from getting wet when Jesse Colter came to the door of the bus and she said "Are you standing in the rain to try and get Waylon to sign your book? I've been watching you through the window and feeling awful bad"! And I said "yes, I've tried many times to catch him after a show unsuccessfully"... Jesse took my book and said "I will get Waylon to sign it", and she went back inside for a brief moment, came back with a towel and handed it to me... she said "go be dry, its torture watching you standing there wet in this cold, come back in 30 minutes". I went into the lobby, dried off, and people at this time were leaving the show. I stared at my watch and counted 30 minutes exactly, went back out and the bus was gone! I thought, not only did I miss Waylon but now I lost my picture book I paid 20 bucks for! I was bummed! I walked out of the hidden parking area beside the Capitol onto the main street when I heard a car horn. I looked over and there was Waylon's gold 84 Cadillac Seville with Waylon in the drivers seat and Jesse in the passenger side. Waylon put the window down, and said "come here Hoss"... He hands me the book signed on the front, Jesse signed it inside the book, and Waylon Jennings said to me- "Thanks son, I wouldn't have stood out here in this rain freezing my ass off for anyone"! And they drove away!!

My autograph story is a bit different. I was stationed in Germany in 83 in the army and was a big fan of Waylon. My 1SGTs wife worked in the travel office and got tickets to see him in Nuremberg. It was the only time I ever saw him. Many years later, I ordered an autographed tour book from Waylon’s office. I actually got someone else’s and called and reordered it. Fast forward a while and I had a Facebook friend who went to Waylon’s memorial service at the Rhyman. He got a couple of extra programs and sent me one. I immediately had it laminated to protect it. Fast forward some time later and I ran into my old 1SGT’s friend online. He gave me his address. I wrote him a surprise letter and told them how special it was to me that they took me to see Waylon in concert. I included the program from the memorial service with the letter. RIP Waylon.

@@TheIrishprk I have that autographed picture book framed and hanging in my "man cave" still all of these years later. I'm so happy to have it, I got to meet quite a few legends and get autographs from working at the Capitol Music Hall, but had tried many times for Waylon at multiple shows with no luck. For him to have sat there in his car and waited until they saw me come out was a truly kind act... And left me with a great memory. Oh, and by the way, I still have Waylon Jennings blue towel that Jesse Colter herself handed me to dry off with. It's just a towel, but the fact that it was "Waylon's Towel" made me hang onto it!

I remember one time about 1984 at lanierland music Park in Calhoun Georgia. The concert was over and everybody was leaving and I jumped up on the stage and went through the backstage door. Open the door and walk down the hallway and the first door I come too Waylon was sitting right there in a chair talking. It was I believe a security guard and then his bodyguard. I walked by and then backed up and looked in the door and he looked right at me and said come on in and have a seat hoss. We talked for about an hour just us. He treated me like he had known me all his life. we talked about family and kids and music. One of the greatest conversations I ever had with the outlaw Waylon Jennings.

Thank you Mr. Gibbs for this video. I can say that the Navajo Nation grew up on Waylon Jennings as far as I can remember. The Waylon beat is where I learned to play the bass. One story I'd like to share...back in the 80s a Navajo country band called The Navajo Sundowners played and recorded many Waylon songs that I myself grew up on. A story I've heard growing up, lead singer of the Navajo Sundowners had a drink to ask for permission to play and record his music while in a PHX club. Not sure if it was true but several volumes were recorded by The Navajo Sundowners at Canyon studios in the 80s. Waylon sure has influenced my bass playing and I'm grateful to find these stories brought together in one video.

Merle's manager was Fuzzy Owens. Billy Joe Shavers once said that he was a dirty sob. I think Waylon looked at Hag as a good friend back then, and feels like they took advantage of him the same day that he experienced a big tragedy.

Hi Otis, what a fine video this is; all these fabulous guys with stories. Geez, Kenny V, and Chris Scruggs, ( no wonder they play with Marty) and damn, just all of ',em. What a treasure you put together about the great Waylon. I've been a CCRN for 33 yrs, retired since '07 due to illness. Also a patient since a young girl and still now. I can tell you that from the 60's thru the 70's those drugs were considered medicine, and then ppl got a lot smarter, but all did not heed. I was lucky I did and still do well on just one, by my doc, all monitored by the government. It can be done, but not easy. I think you asked. Anyway, Waylon songs in no.particular order, " Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way", "Luckenbach Texas", ".I'm A Ramblin' Man", and "Rainy Day Woman". Thx again for all your wonderful work. Peace and love
