À propos de ce produit

Product Information

In 1973, a forty-year-old country musician named Willie Nelson, inspired by a failed music festival the year before, decided he was going to hold his own party. He would stage it in the same remote and rocky field where the previous festival had withered. And he'd do it in July: not the hottest part of the Central Texas summer, but "damn sure close enough," according to music journalist Dave Dalton Thomas. As unlikely as it seemed in 1973, Willie kept the event going, minus a year off here and there, for half a century. Thomas has attended nearly every Willie Nelson Fourth of July Picnic since 1995, finding joy in an event some music reporters have compared to "death marches and prison labor." For the last 20 years, Thomas has researched the history of the Picnic, chronicling the brutal heat and the quirky and sometimes illegal antics of fans, musicians, and others. Thomas has watched the Picnic evolve over the decades, as Willie and his audience have evolved. He has interviewed participants, including artists, organizers, promoters, and even a few colorful hangers-on. While reviewing ten of the Picnics in detail-each chosen for its significance in the overarching development of the event-Thomas also includes basic facts about each gathering, from the beginning to the present, with the addition of pertinent information about the "off years," when the Picnic was on temporary hiatus for one reason or another. In his introduction, Thomas quotes country musician Johnny Bush as he recalls trying to talk Nelson out of the notion of holding the first Picnic. "Willie, there ain't no way in hell a bunch of cowboys are going to come out in the hundred-degree heat to watch us pick our guitars." As Thomas records them, Bush's next words were "he proved me wrong."

Reviews
"Dave has done an incredible job in documenting the many years of Willie's picnics! Even though I appeared at most of them, the details of the inner workings of so many moving parts was enlightening to me. This book will serve to tell future generations what really went on in those bygone days."--Ray Benson, "David Dalton Thomas has obsessively researched and written a book that is everything it's subject isn't: focused, organized, entirely factual, and with no need for sunscreen. Given the charmingly scattered nature of Willie's kinda annual Picnic, it's great to have its history of good times all in one place."-- Michael Corcoran, author of Austin Music Is a Scene Not a Sound, "Dave Dalton Thomas turns a seemingly narrow slice of Willie World into a highly specific telling of the wider Willie story: the uncompromising rise to stardom, the often-shady crew that made the ascent with him, the zenned-out willingness to fly by the seat of his pants, the 1980s' emergence of Farm Aid as the picnics evolved, and the thirty-plus years spent as a living legend with zero interest in slowing down. But the real lesson is that the picnics were born as an excuse to hang out with friends...which may be the most Willie thing I've ever heard. Essential reading for fans of Willie and students of life."--John Spong, senior editor at Texas Monthly and host of the podcast One by Willie
