Free Billy Joe

The jury is in at The Fat Guy on country singer ("Georgia On A Fast Train") Billy Joe Shaver’s little dustup in Lorena the other day:

"It’d be hard to find a more peaceful & generous man, and I know he’s supremely appreciative of his fans, too."

But the matter is in dispute. Shaver’s Austin lawyer, Joe Turner, tells the American-Statesman: "He’s already done 20 years in Waco. What more can they do to him? I think he’s suffered enough."

    To tell the truth I always liked Waco.

    A lot of people in Austin like to make fun of it. I don’t have anything against it. Once you get off the interstate, it’s a pleasant place.
