The Abbotts and several high profile friends are hoping to clear the lists for Texas teachers.

It's not up for debate, Pat Green is the Texas Country GOAT. He was the undisputed king of Texas Country before there was even a crown to wear. The man made his own crown. Green blazed a trail to Nashville through Texas, and back again...

Earlier this week Josh Abbott and his wife Taylor welcomed their new son.

Last week Randall King and his family and friends said goodbye to his sister.

Individually they each front successful touring bands. Collectively, Josh Abbott, William Clark Green, John Baumann, and Cleto Cordero are The Panhandlers.

"I wrote it for my fiancée," says Cordero. "I was trying to imagine this kind of a rugged character who's beautiful but so hard to figure out. It's a west Texas love song, I guess."

Josh Abbott, William Clark Green, John Baumann, and Cleto Cordero are The Panhandlers. But they're also individuals with their own bands and careers to run.

"The Panhandlers," we now know with certainty that it is not a western movie.

Just in case you disabled your Instagram earlier this week for whatever reason and missed the news last night...

Throw a '90s themed country party and we're in.

Performances from Randy Rogers, Turnpike Troubadours, Josh Abbott, Jack Ingram, Wade Bowen, Reckless Kelly, BJ Barham (American Aquarium), Corb Lund, Hayes Carll, Kyle Park, Casey Donahew, Dalton Domino, Koe Wetzel, and more.

... and wound up singing "She's Like Texas" dress like Geoffrey the Giraffe.
