... Johnny's just re-started the music stand argument.

If you had consumed the sheer number and variety of "pain killers" that he - and Waylon - got through in a day, you would need a music stand just to support the notes reminding you who you were and where you were and why..

Sex and drugs and country had sex and drugs and rock and roll beat by a mile.

If Johnny Cash can use one they must be acceptable.

Nope, he closed it, as Burrito said...

My classic Cash story - 1980`s in Hendersonville, Tn.. saw him on The Letterman Show with Waylon on Saturday night, both saying how they had been "clean and sober" for over year.
Sunday afternoon they both came in the jewellery store where I was working. The boss having been Cash`s next door neighbour for years & he & his wife used to baby sit the kids.
Cash was carrying a large clear plastic sack full of assorted pills, from which he and Waylon helped themselves the whole time they were in the store!

Er - clean and sober my ass?
:D

Who needs a rock and roll lifestyle when you can have a C&W one?!

Perhaps he was using the music stand for the last song on the Folsom Prison album, Greysone Chapel, which was written by Glen Sherley, an inmate at the prison who gave the song to Johnny via a preacher the night before the concert.
