Wayne Hancock & Bob Wayne on Tour / New EPK
A month or so ago when I attended a JB Beverley show here in Austin, it occurred to me how much Wayne “The Train” Hancock has emerged as a leader and true elder of the music in the last year. That night he made his way on stage with The Wayward Drifters, and later collaborated with them on a song back at his house. Earlier in 2010, he cut two duets with the up and coming Lucky Tubb for his release Hillbilly Fever. And now on the upcoming Bob Wayne release from Century Media, “The Train” has lent his name once again to an emerging star.
Outlaw Carnie features a collaboration from the two Wayne’s called “Everything’s Legal in Alabama,” and you can see Bob talking about this track, and all the others on the JUST released EPK!
Bob Wayne and Wayne “The Train” are going to be heading out on tour together, check below for confirmed dates, but more dates will be added soon. It will start in April in Colorado and end in Tulsa on May 7th. Bob has another tour starting in March, and both Bob Wayne and “The Train” have some other dates just added, so make sure you go to Road Bound Booking to keep up to date on these and the other artists in their stable, which now includes JB Beverley and Hellbound Glory!

- April 23 – Oriental Theater – Denver, CO

I’ve only seen him once, and it was with .357 in Arcola. That was quite the haul, but well worth it. He put on a great show, and .357 was his Outlaw Carnies that night!

I don’t see Bob Wayne on Muddy Roots, but that would further cement my labor day weekend plans.

There will be another Muddy Roots article I will post soon with the updated list. Bob is on it, along with some other big names.

I think they do like it, and it makes them feel uncomfortable. :-)) I actually think they are ignorant as to the difference between ‘radio country’ and Real Country. They may be too lazy to even want to know the difference. Oh well! I am excited as a farmer with a goat that shits gold for Bob… ha take that you Haters..lol

That picture of the band is an old one, just in case that is what you are referencing.

Alright, changed!
I was just parroting info from Mrs. Hancock, but you can be the one to tell her she goofed. At least it wasn’t as bad as the last time, when she told me to name of Wayne’s bass player and it was the name of someone who had recently died 🙁
I was talking to one of the head dude’s at Pickathon last night, and he told me Whitey Morgan will be playing there this year. Very cool, I might see y’all there!

Just saw Bob december 30 in Eindhoven, great show as you can expect from the man. There’s some nice clips on Youtube. Got my copy of Outlaw Carnie today, and I love it. Even knowing almost all the songs, it’s a great selection.
Would love to see him with Wayne Hancock. Maybe someday here in Holland…..
