TW in your face on the Opry last night

Post by Tony Prior »

What was this? Did someone make a mistake in the production room ? TW right there on the C6th neck..smokin'...

The very end of the show TW kicked off a swing tune (Instrumental)with Steve Wariner and company and when it came to TW's ride the camera was right there as TW smoked on the C6th neck..not once , but twice for the full ride..

It would be worth watching the rerun this morning just for this alone..

What were those Opry producers thinking..? Anyway..whoever was responsible for that that camera work..thanks..

oh yeh..Steve, if you're reading, you smoked pretty darn good yourself...

Yee doggies! Some of the best steel pickin' you'll ever see on TV. A hot gittar, fiddle and steel Western-swing instrumental, with the camera focusing in on each for one or more whole rides. TW was the greatest.

I just tuned in in time to get that whole last song. I guess I can assume the rest of it wasn't like that. I guess by blind luck the cameramen and directors have to get something right sometime. Glad I was lucky enough to catch it. As someone said somewhere else on the Forum - even a blind hog will occassionally find an acorn. Image

"Burnin The Roadhouse Down". Its funny cause
Tommy just burned off those rides like he was eating breakfast. What a pleasure to hear Tommy burn up the C6th on T.V.
