New Years Day

To me New Years has always been the death of Hank Williams and Alan Jackson's Midnight in Montgomery. Sadly I cannot find the original video on Youtube. As I child I was always sacred 's of Hank Williams. I think it was because he was always a ghost to me. On top of that the video for Tear in Beer with Hank Jr came out when I was still pretty young and that video is sorta creepy. To my Facebook friends I posted David Allen Coe's Ghost of Hank William, the live version. They are now accepting of my love of Hank III and posting of random old Country videos. I think they realized that once again I've gone country, and might not be coming back.

 As I write this I'm wearing a A Hank III shirt. I love Shelton, he make me happy. Part Country and part heavy metal, he does what he wants and his stubbornness makes me smile. My favorite story to tell people is the time he was mad at security so he played for 3 hours straight. Wouldn't leave the stage even when his band did so. That was his fuck you, don't treat my fans badly or else you're working for me nonstop till I say when.

I love Spotify. And one of the play lists I added entitled: Pistol Annies/Wreckers/ Lady A! had Hank's Cadillac by Ashley Monroe on it. Though it's 8 years old, it's new to me and very fitting that I found it on New Years day.

On a personal note my boyfriend rolled an ATV last night and spent the wee hours of New Years day in the Trauma bay at my work. He's home now. A little banged up, but alive. And we all know that's all that matters.
