I got the chance to meet my hero. I was doing payroll at gift shop in a hyatt in Albuquerque. He walked in and said "Good morning" I immediately knew who he was, I put my paperwork and told him that he was my hero He smiled and told I was to young to have him as a hero, and I told him my story and we talked for 40 minutes. He wife came to get him he been there so long, as he walked out he asked what my favorite of his songs and I told him "Rainy day women" but the song that fit me has always been "I've always been crazy" its still my song. I called my Mom to tell her who I saw, and she asked if I got his autograph. I hadn't, it never even was a thought. To hear his voice so close and getting to have a conversation was just to damn cool.

Dion "remembers" that since he was one of the headliners on that tour (he was) that HE was supposed to be on the plane but gave up his seat.

No one could or yet can top Waylon, he didn’t care about the spot light or bling , all he ever wanted was to play his music and let his audience hear it. Thus came the name outlaw because he basically told Chet Adkins to kiss his rear

[@pageribe9412]

Waylon had great respect for Chet. Read Waylon's book.

[@eugeneasher3788]

No it wouldn't Chet, it was RCA that Waylon told to kiss his ass, he wouldn't be controlled by no recording company. Remember when they gave him the 25,000 dollar signing bonus, Waylon wanted to take that money and start his own recording company and someone asked him what name he would give his recording company and his reply to them was, WGJ recording company, which stands for, (Waylon Goddamn Jennings) That's just the way he was, he never let the big recording companies push him into doing something he didn't want to, Waylon was the real deal nothing fake, he was all about his fan's not the big time recording companies, if his fan's we're happy then he was happy. I heard Waylon say something once many years ago that I still believe in to this day, He said through life everyone has to have a center post to hold onto when times are bad, without that center post we will fall, his center post was Jessie and later in his life he definitely come to know that.🎸

Jessie and Waylon did not "live happily ever after" - they had some really rough times until he finally kicked the cocaine.

[@3rdFloorblog]

Tragic ending.

[@edgarallanpoe8917]

The narration about his drug bust while in the recording studio is inaccurate. Waylon noticed the warrant the DEA presented him had him listed as the owner of the studio, which is incorrect, therefore making the warrant invalid. While the agents had to wait for a new warrant, Waylon's drummer Ritchie Albright gathered all the drugs in the studio and flushed them down the toilet. The DEA agents knew they had nothing on him, but preceded to arrest Waylon anyway outta spite for a failed bust.. All charges were later dropped during a preliminary hearing. I mean seriously, I know this is made solely for views, but honestly, whoever did the research on this video is terrible. All they had to do was listen to Waylon's song 'Outlaw Sh*t' for a more accurate bit of research material.. Smh....
