Proud to have written one of the songs in this concert... Any Old Time. Been a while since I heard George sing it live! Thanks so much.

[@drummerjay802]

that's awesome man....I like that song alot

[@DeeJay-bn3hu]

I like that one, too! Thanks! AWESOME video!!

That is awesome! Well it a pleasure to have you on here commenting. Not my channel, but I sure do love the songs you wrote! “Galveston” is my favorite! And many more you have written! I wish I knew how to submit my work. I guess you have to know some one to get some where in the music business. Thanks for all you contributed!

I attended a George Strait concert every year, for 10 yrs in a row....from Fresno, to San Jose, to the huge shows he did at the sorry-ass Oakland Raiders stadium....King George, there'll never be another like him....

That's an impressive run! What were the years?

[@thelifeofnikkimarie9445]

I saw him when i was a kid in Fresno. Terri Clark opened for him. Such an amazing concert

[@lisahatton5718]

It's like a time machine.. I was only ten years old then, but I remember my mom and daddy cranking out to George on the radio.. What a childhood...

[@daveweed2765]

Lusa Hatton. I remember seeing him in Gilley's Live. 17 with a fake ID in Pasadena. I can't really remember it though but even George got drunk. But hey Western Music without so much " country" involved like now. The influence of what Bob Wills laid down with Western Swing it don't matter who's in Austin, right. Just do a two step, take a sip of beer and tip your hat to a lady. I bet George does that.

[@iriskenny1747]

This man only gets better and more gorgeous as the years go by! I LOVE my George!!!

[@antoniolocke7140]

What a fine performance. George always knew how to entertain his fans. I admire this man's showmanship to a significant degree. Entertainer with class.

[@mimime5326]

I was there! Three of my friends and I drove from Houston to Dallas to see George on New Years Eve. Our hair was big and our jeans were starched and way too tight…what a big time we had! My friend threw her white teddy bear onto the stage and barely missed George. It sat on the stage for the rest of the concert. You can see it in the video! It’s amazing to see how people could climb on the stage and hug him at the end - times were different back then for sure. And it was always exciting to think that you just might catch his hat when he threw it out into the audience. I’m going to see George Strait at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on Sunday night - have been watching old videos and realize that I’ve probably seen him about 20+ times. It has been worth every dollar!

[@tammydeopere5529]

We're seeing him on Saturday. I've only seen him about 6x, but I did get to shake his hand once. 🤩

[@williamstone2626]

Guarantee that hat was mangled by the time someone finally got a good hold on it.

[@gloriawilliams3777]

I love George’s old stuff, back when he was young and exciting and giving all he had into his showmanship. I loved all his little funny jesters, and that Smile never gets old. Will love this type of music forever. The Ace in the Hole Band is the best band I have ever heard. God help us keep the old style of country music this new style is killing the spirit. Thank you Norma for sharing him with the world, I know it was not an easy task. God Bless George and Norma and their family with a long fruitful and healthy life.

[@redcards27]

I actually still have the VHS tape of this concert, I bought it back in 1989. I introduced my first wife to George and his greatness while watching it on one of our early dates back in 1990 when I was living in San Diego. Holy Crow !!! , where in the heck does time go ? The last 30+ years went by in a flash.....

[@twlvhrs]

George Strait has definitely earned his place in the music community , and I thank him for keeping Texas music alive and well :-)

[@carolynbeemer8727]

My comment is I hope and pray to God this was a break because it's too cold and my poor horses are out in this cold because I didn't have a barn to put them in and my neighbors they're not like it used to be back when I was younger we could help out our neighbors we did God nobody wants to help people today

I ran light for these guys after his second album came out. I knew every song because i learned them on guitar. After the show these guys were like wow. You nailed the lighting man. How did you do that? I said i know the songs. I know who is going to play the fills and I know who is going to play the leads. Unfortunately they were not that big yet so they couldn't hire me full time.

George's Band..."The Ace In The Hole Band" was the greatest Touring Band in Country Music. No Doubt.

[@dannymills7090]

Sorry, I love George Strait, but Waylon and his Waymore Blues Band were on a whole other level.

[@mlwsf]

My vote would go to the Strangers backing Merle Haggard.

[@macoyreiber4482]

All of these are great, but the Texas Playboys can top them all. Behind them, I would have to agree with the Ace In the Hole band.

[@reeceblinman7469]

Johnny Cash’s band The Tennessee Three and Merle Haggard’s the strangers was one of the best backing bands of the 1960’s

I saw George Strait live in St.Louis before The Cowboy Rides Away Tour and I had a great time and I did a tribute to George Strait and I did The Cowboy Rides Away and I felt the same way when I saw George Strait in St.Louis in 2012, when he closed the old astrodome in Houston Texas, and when he ended his final tour in Dallas Texas at AT&T Stadium and it was also the name of the tour also

I recorded his Austin City Limits whenever he was on even Hee Haw I even wear the same cowboy hat he does. Hey can't help it he's the "King"!!

Wait, how is this back in 87 when "if you aint lovin, you aint livin" came out in 88?

[@GrantH]

I think this was probably filmed in 1987 but released on tape in 1988

[@sterlingboy9982]

GrantH oh ok

[@brokenBNpieces]

He had already been performing some of the songs off of "If You Ain't Loving, You Ain't Living" live as the album was due to come out, but the release was put on hold after the accidental death of his daughter therefore it was actually not released until Feb. 1988.
