I honestly wouldn't want to deal with the hardcore blowback from all y'all ravenous fans.

Luckily, Kelly Dearmore from the Dallas Observer wasn't quite as worried about that as me.

He's been the inspiration for many Texas artists from Pat Green to more recently Rich O'Toole. His music has explained life and chances are was probably your class's graduating song.

But as far as Robert Earl Keen is concerned, the next time around, the band should think of a better excuse.
