Joe Ely & Terry Allen - Song Swap

Event Phone: (214) 272-8346
Admission Price: $28.00
In the rock'n'roll era, the vast spaces of west Texas have been filled with great music. Joe Ely stands in a tradition born out on these gritty plains. It includes Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, Waylon Jennings, Tanya Tucker, Guy Clark, Delbert McClin- ton, Don Walser, Terry Allen, Lloyd Maines, his daughter Natalie Maines, and Joe's enduring musical partners, Butch Hancock and Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

It is a land where you can see for miles and miles and miles. Only those who don't know it find it barren. For it's full of stories if you know where to seek them. And it has customs and amusements all its own. Even the forever dipping oil wells have their role. "In high school, we used to get somebody to buy us a six pack and go out there to the fields and ride the front part of those oil pumps all night long," Joe remembers.

Now, Ely lives in Austin and spends much of his life on the road. But when he's accumulated enough song ideas, Lubbock is where Joe heads. "Somehow, just driv- ing for hours down those country roads is still the best place for me finish my songs."
There are no events happening in the near future.
