On Saturday March 13th, The Desert Dogs will make their pilgrimage to Waco Texas for the 5th Annual St. Patties Day Party, at Nelsons' Banquet Hall,(nelsonsbanquethall.com ) located at 414 Franklin Ave 254-714-1114.
This party has grown to capacity over the years with folks coming from Oklahoma , Colorado, New Mexico the Texas Panhandle and beyond. If you would like to attend please call ahead and let Nelson and his wife Anne know. There is no cover. Nelson throws this bash every year just because he's a hell of a nice guy and he likes to party!
Nelson and I went to high school together and have stayed close friends thought our lives. I lived in Waco with Nelson back in our younger and wilder days, and have many fond memories of Waco and Nelson. I used to play at a now defunct resteraunt there called Water Works, and got to meet and play music with some of the Texas Legends,BW Stevenson, Rusty Wier, Vince Bell, Craig Calvert and Steven Fromholz.
Life on this Earth has been made so much sweeter 'cause of my life long friend Nelson Rue. Come and party with the Dogs, Old ones, Lucky ones and Desert ones. Be sure and book your hotel rooms in advance cause you can't stay at Nelsons'.
