What was more important than the Woody Guthrie festival? Why did I make it to Tulsa, but not the rest of the way to Okemah.
Quite simply, an almost 12 year old is a huge Weird Al Yankovich fan and I took him to the Brady Theater concert in Tulsa as an early birthday present. It was a long drive down and back, but it was worth it. Al put on a good show and Dominic thought it was great. Al signed autographs after the show.
The Brady Theater is only a couple of blocks from the legendary Cain's Ballroom, which was Bob Wills' showcase in Tulsa.
One of the highlights for me was Weird Al's palindromic tribute to "Bob" Dylan.
For the younger readers of this blog, its a parody of Dylan's premature music video
