What does your bladeforums username mean?

Mine is from my stint with David Allan Coe as lead guitarist…the song “Longhaired Redneck”, coupled with the fact he called me Boomer (from being an Okie).

Yes, I still have hip length hair so nothing has really changed as I approach my 60th birthday next month. Once a hippie, always a hippie.
Cool…saw him play twice back in the day (he fell off chair one time on stage, who knows why??) …good times, cool you played with him 🤙🏻
 
David,
:) Lampropeltis Mexciana Alterna- LMALTERNA . Until it was changed it was the taxonomic name for the Grey Banded Kingsnake. When I chose my name, the Alterna were still classed as a variant of the Variable Kingsnake(Lampropeltis mexicana).

I was a keeper and breeder of SW US king and milk snakes. Pretty much guaranteed to always get that screen name wherever I go- especially since they changed the classification. Best pet breed was either Arizona Mountain King or California Mountain King. FAR better newbie pets that boids. That should trigger some people! LOL!

Hillbilly,
It is a well known fact we all have one leg shorter than the other from sidehillin'. I bet you are walking in circles on that flatland! My Moms folks are from Grayson County, I bet you know where that is.

I know where that is,but not super familiar with the area. I'm originally from a bit further west. Dickenson county for the first 14 years of life,then Russell county until 2008. My Grandmother lives in Wytheville 🤠👍

Well that's an interesting story. Bet it was fun.
 
You can’t even imagine. Hell, I can’t even imagine and I was there.

I’m glad it was only for 12 dates.
I'm dying here. What's your favorite David Allen Coe song? Did you perform it with him?
Actually I want to hear about your top five but that would be pretty bold.

Why are you dying? Why would that be bold? It’s David Allan Coe btw.

David has so many good tunes it’s hard to pick just one. I played 12 dates with him in Texas. “You Never Even Called Me By My Name” was a favorite of mine. “The Ride”, “Longhaired Redneck”, “Willie, Waylon, & Me”, and one off of his XXX album. “If That Ain’t Country” was also a classic.

I played them all…or whatever was on the set list for the night.

The Ride…definitely a classic imo. I was lucky enough to see him live twice, but all in FL, so you weren’t playing then I guess.
