Waymore's Outlaws

My dear friend, Jerry Bridges, played and sang with Waylon Jennings for 23 years, and he was his band manager and producer on several projects. Waylon passed away in February of 2002, but his band continues to play, now going by "Waymore's Outlaws," and with a new lead singer named Tommy Townsend. Tommy was mentored by Waylon as a young teenager and sang with the band off and on over the years.

 

 

They were playing at Puckett's in Leiper's Fork on July 5th, so we got a group together and went to see them. It was me, Christine & Katie Parris, Susie Kartchner and Cassie Peach.

Clockwise: Me & Susan Bridges & Christine, Puckett's Sign,
Tommy's "leather" guitar, and blurry me with Jerry!

I think it's so cool that when Jerry's wife, Susan, was diagnosed with breast cancer a couple of years ago, Jerry had a breast cancer ribbon painted on his guitar. She completed chemo/radiation in January and has been a warrior through it all! She's now a survivor, and doing very well!

 

We were total groupies -- we sat right on the front row, sang along, danced in our seats, and had a great time! And we were probably the only ones there who did it without drinking! LOL



Christine, Me, Susie, Cassie & Katie -- and some random 'photo bomber' in the background.
