Billy Joe Shaver & Band w/ Eleven Hundred Springs Opening Sons of Hermann Hall Dallas, Texas April 28, 2001

This was a truly special night for me.  Not only did I get to see the living legend, Billy Joe Shaver, but I also had the pleasure of meeting a new branch of the OKOM family tree, several of Billy Joe Shaver's biggest fans from different parts of Texas and even Kansas!  It was a very memorable evening with some very wonderful people and the unbelievable Billy Joe Shaver. God bless Billy Joe Shaver...and Eddy Shaver and their fans.   Most of these pictures didn't turn out very well as I used the wrong flash mode on my new camera and caught the motion, thus causing the blurring effect.  But I wanted to share them anyway.  I thought some of them look kind of cool.  At least some turned out good.

This page is dedicated to the loving memory of Eddy Shaver, who passed away December 31, 2000.  Eddy will always be around.  As his and Billy Joe's song goes, here are some of the verses to "Live Forever".   I'm gonna live forever, I'm gonna cross that river I'm gonna catch tomorrow now. You're gonna wanna hold me, just like I always told you, You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.   Nobody here will ever find me But I will always be around, Just like the songs I leave behind me I'm gonna live forever now.   When this old world has gone asunder and all the stars fall from the sky Remember someone really loves you We'll live forever, you and I.   I'm gonna live forever, I'm gonna cross that river I'm gonna catch tomorrow now.                                                                 Billy Joe and Eddy Shaver
