Well, that's what I get for not watching the whole video, Dadgummit! Thanks for setting it straight Paul. |

What venue was this? Even the audience is a class act. Most of the men are dressed in suits/ties, the women in classy attire...

Tim,
I saw Oslo on the YouTube title so it should be Oslo, Norway. Love the Hughey sound! Carl |

Back when you could actually talk to the person next to you.
I would always go see the Conway/Loretta shows if I could. John is my all time favorite steel player. And Bob, what can you say. He is beyond great.

| As Tim Russell posted about the dress. (Band & audience.) Sad that a lot of the bands look as if they just came in from a construction job and forgot to wash up for the Gig. I guess I'm from a different time warp ! ! ! ! |

Me too. I am from the "everyone dress alike" era too. Since we are putting on a show, we should look like entertainers. I still try to dress really nice, no matter what the rest of the band wears.

| Love to watch this band. It feels like they could fall off the tracks at any moment, yet they all play so effortlessly and with joy. Crazy rhythm section. |

| Great video. 4 of Conway's group are gone. Conway Twitty himself, Joe Lewis his bass player/harmony singer, Tommy (Pork Chop) Markham drummer and Papa John Huey Steel Guitar are all gone now. I saw them in Fairmont WV about 1969 or 70. Time stands still for no one. |
