We chose the name because, as Willie says, "the nightlife, aint no good life, but it's our life".

I still perform at the age of 55 and probably will perform for many years to come. I love entertaining, not for the rush, but the enjoyment of making folks happy and helping them to forget about their problems for a few hours.

It opens the music business up and allows writers and singers who have little chance at exposure, to be heard by a much larger audience.

If the right opportunity came up, yes.

Currently I am a single since my partner Jim Brown passed away in September of 2006. Before Texas Nightlife, I was lead singer for New Beginnings for many years. This band also included my ex-wife as well as other long time friends. My history before that was varied to include 60's-70's garage bands so I've been around the block a bit.

I would say George Strait and Vern Gosdin are the 2 biggest influences as well as Sammy Kershaw. I also had the luck of having an uncle who was personal friends with Johnny Cash while growing up as a kid.

Alamosa, Colorado, the prettiest place I ever played.

Standard PA, 12 string guitar, and we use primarily midi backup files for live performances.

I am the co-host of a live music room on weekends, at PalTalk in the Country music section called, TexasNightlife. we are open every weekend, Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm central time. Everyone is welcome.
