I've seen Willie and Bob before separately. Willie was great, Bob's getting old.

2. I worked a Dylan show about 2 years ago
From what I heard and saw, he was pretty good. I was within 2 feet from him and he looked better than I thought he would.

6. Well I know that, but he wasn't real enthusiastic.
I was thinking here I am watching a musical legend and he sucks. I was extremely disappointed, but maybe it was an off night. Willie on the other hand was awesome. I really enjoyed Whiskey River.

9. My buddy bought them for us
Online. I was talking about it, and he said "Let's get some tickets..my treat". So I didn't pass that one up. I'm looking forward to seeing them both.

8. They perform at Willie's Fourth of July Picnic here in Texas
I've been to a few of those in the past and they're pretty fun. If you can stand the heat that is.

12. August is usually the worst here
If you didn't melt then you might survive July. They do have misters and such at the event to try and lessen the heat, they help.

13. When I was there, I was told that it was pretty mild for an August
I was still hot as hell, but it was in the 80s. I love just about everything about the south, but the heat. No thanks..lol. Of course winters up north are starting to suck worse each year.

14. The 80's is unusually mild
You must have brought the cool weather with you. It's normal for the high temp's in August to average in the upper 90's where I am (Near Austin). When I first moved here I thought I would die, now I get cold when it's in the 60's. :)
