Great story!

Thanks Terry! yep, he achieved the American Dream!

Hey Todd, thanks for watching! I was kind of in the same boat...i knew bits and pieces, but wow...what a “rags to riches” story! Anything else specifically, that you’d like to see?

@patrickspringer6534 3 года назад

You would make a fine narrator for all the classic biography shows about the musicians of early County Music. Fire Marty Stewart and give you his job. I understand Marty has the largest collection of those suits in the World....Pretty sure. I enjoy the history lessons you put out. Well made, Brother. I hope I spelled Stewart correctly and hope it isn't Stuart. Any how, I hope you're up to the 80% level now. See ya!

@THEjohnnyfalstaff 3 года назад

Thanks Patrick! Haha!!! Naw, i think Marty is the guy for the job...would love to crack open a beer with him. Hell...I’d love to crack open a beer with anybody at this point in the lockdown! Still slowly bouncing back, but getting there! Yeah, it’s Stuart, sorry bro! 🤠

Was at the Lankersheim store once in the early 80s. Bought a rufflled shirt. The store was very large, almost warehouse-like. And it had mostly brand name clothes, like H Bar C, the Nudie made stuff being available by request/appointment. The knid of place you could spend 12 hours in and still never see it all.

@THEjohnnyfalstaff 3 года назад

Wow...totally jealous! Did they have any Nudie suits on display?

@craiggarrison9904 3 года назад

@@THEjohnnyfalstaff Yes, several. Oohs & ahhs for days. There were also lots of plain western shirts, formally wrapped in cellophane packaging, pinned to the cardboard stiffeners. Very old school. The odd (sad) part was, I was the only customer in the store.

@THEjohnnyfalstaff 3 года назад

What? The only customer? Man, that is sad...but we had it similar in Houston (minus the Nudie suits, of course)...old school western wear store - cellophaned H Bar C shirts and very few shoppers.

The ONLY time I ever considered having a baby happened at Nudie's on Lankershim in 1992. I was looking around in awe at everything, hoping to spot someone famous (especially Dwight Yoakam), and saw a pair of baby diaper pins. There were little guns in holsters! Damn, I should've gotten them regardless.
