@Marc Mcclurg my comment was referring to a song about how the whole outlaw thing was a joke that people took seriously. Of course an artist that makes plenty of legal money doesn't need to be an outlaw.
@Marc Mcclurg so some of the most recognizable names in country are just a load of bs. Don't know shit from shinola. Bunch of wannabes that every wannabe country singer wants to be
@Marc Mcclurg do you think bards that would sing of knights are just a bunch of pussys? The guy with the guitar doesn't have to be a badass to tell a story and sing.
The take no BS attitude Waylon and others from his generation and of every musical style in his day should be something implemented by music today. I've always mentioned the year 2000 is about where music quality dropped off in mainstream, and pos Snyder's stint here verifies that, this was the beginning of the end for real musicians(playing musical instruments) and the respect they earned. It doesn't matter if someone hates Waylon music....thinks the Outlaw movement was a joke as mentioned in this comment section, all that sewage talk is irrelevant and off course to the take away which was demonstrated by Waylon. Tom Snyder and those alike in mainstream television since then is why you hear nothing other than talentless idiots talking into a mic with issues along with moronic backing tracks of bass repetition today, 20+ years later.
I can't speak for Tom Snyder, but I don't believe a lack of respect had anything to do with it. Show segments run long sometimes and, try as they might, things like this happen. Waylon made the situation worse by getting up and walking out, leaving Tom Snyder to twist in the wind. My understanding is that he just left, not giving the producers an opportunity to explore other options. Whether he left because he had another appointment or a show to do, he ultimately made the decision to be a guest that evening. He should have stayed to be a guest for fewer minutes that evening, or at least attempted to work something out. That's called rolling with the punches, and that's how you get through life. His appearance that evening was worked out between his people and the producers of the Late, Late Show. If he knew he'd be running late, he could have canceled earlier in the day and a fill-in guest could have been arranged for. It happens all the time on television shows, and no one thinks ill of a guest that can't appear because of a timing issue. However, this occurred just a few minutes before he was to go on; the adult thing to do then was to accept that you'd have less "on-air" time and stay. The take-away from this is that once you make a commitment to do something, you should honor it by following through. That applies to your friends, your family, your job, whatever it is. You're nothing if people can't rely on you to finish a job, or that you won't fulfill a commitment you've made to do something.
@@stever5887 I get your point but when you give someone your word and then you go against it and cut there time by 2/3rds that would be a line crossed in my opinion. I would have done the same thing. I can't say it's 100% the right thing to do but it's what I would do.
LAFOLLETTER--I think you missed the point. It was Tom's show; he could speak to any guest for as long as he wanted to, which is what happened that night. Waylon got up and walked out, perhaps thinking he wouldn't get the air time he felt he deserved at that point in his career. Maybe he was told he was going to get the full hour to talk with Tom. Maybe that was the only way the staff could lure him into coming on the show. We'll never know what pushed him over the edge, and it's not important. THE MAN STOOD UP AND WALKED OUT, leaving Tom without his next guest, and he never told the staff why. That couldn't have been the only talk-show he had been on, so he should have been prepared for the eventuality of not being a guest that evening. Savvy celebrities don't suddenly walk out like that, because it leaves a bad taste in people's mouths that can sink a career. You're written off as "difficult", and no one wants to have you on as a guest. Word of such behavior gets around fast; the industry only remembers you walked out leaving the host in a bind. Suddenly, you're not being booked as a guest on shows you really want to appear on because of it. It was the wrong move to make, and he may have later regretted it. But the corrective action would have required some groveling and a personal apology to the host, actions that may not have been in Waylon's repertoire. Since both men are dead, I guess we'll never know what may have transpired.
@DakotaSutherland--Let's be clear: Waylon didn't get a firm promise he would be on that night; it was implied. Nor was he promised a specific amount of airtime. It's all free-flowing and what happens, happens. Dr. Laura (I don't know who she is, either) and Tom got on a roll in their conversation, and the time just slipped away. It happens on all talk shoes; it's part of the game, and you roll with it. Tom would have had him as a guest the next night, or the next time Waylon was in town. Again, maybe Waylon had had a bad day in general, had a fight with his wife on the telephone earlier, etc. We don't know what set him off, but he somehow got it in his head that he was being given short shrift that night by Tom, and that's all it took for him to walk out of the Green Room and leave the NBC Studios. We humans sometimes have unreasonable expectations about how an occasion in our lives SHOULD turn out, then lose our cool when it doesn't go according to "our" plans. In case you weren't aware, green is a calming color, and is used specifically to put guests at ease before going on. You may remember from childhood that your classrooms were probably painted green, too (mine were). Whatever the problem was, the Green Room wasn't able to do its job that night. You have to understand that Tom invited guests on his show because he liked them personally, liked their professional endeavors, the music or the movies they made or their personal beliefs were similar to his own (or not). He wanted Waylon there and he intended to have him come on, but events went in another direction once the show started. You don't get your nose out of joint and walk out because "you think" you're being given a bum deal. Tom was outspoken and probably scared a few people at the studios; he was loud, imposing, brash and not afraid to tell you exactly what he thought of you. I suspect the show was ended because they chose not to renew his contract for that and related reasons. His ratings were probably all over the map, but it's hard to maintain a consistent following when your show begins at 1 a.m. But that's why people liked to watch him; they knew they were going to get the straight story from Tom, as well as some interesting guests. My final thought is that I hope you will reconsider your statement that you would have done the same thing as Waylon. As long as you keep talking with people, there's a chance you can come to an agreement, or at least understand the other person's point of view. The moment you stop trying to find a way to salvage a bad situation, you've lost the battle.
Asshole deserved it, and there saying stuff like “you just don’t do it to Waylon blah blah” you don’t do shit like that to anyone. One persons time is not more important then another’s, especially when there’s a lot of people sitting and waiting to hear what you have to say.
I was watching that night. Waiting impatiently for Waylon to come on. Thought it was pure bs that Snyder did that to Waylon. Disappointed I didn't see him that night but so proud of the man he was and not taking any crap. Waylon was and always will be a true legend.
Me too!!!!!! I Never watched Tom's show. It was Letterman and to bed for school. But not the night Waylon was gonna be on. Then Tom played it off as if Waylon was an ungrateful guest.
you give dr laura most of the show and give waylon 15 minutes that is an insult this man was a legend, to disrespect him like that is so wrong . no wonder he left way to go waylon.
@oldrockhead really? Who was the other choice? Hilary lied about inconsequential shit such as being sotted at as first lady. And many other things. Do your homework.
I agree But this was 1998 and this was Dr Laura though So I do understand now I get Him I was very Stupid when I was a boy He is a Superstar on the level or above his co band members of the Highway Men Kris Kristoferson Willie Nelson or The one who I think May have surpassed him in Greatness Johnny Cash Dr Laura did not active more greatness tell the Photos of her Nude In those photos you can see that 1970 female grooming practices were different then today
@@norahjaneeast5450 Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson are definitely more famous than Waylon Jennings. Kristofferson was big for a short time but overall not quite the same level of fame as Jennings. Dr Laura was realy big at that time and Jennings star had long since faded.
That was how I felt at the time. I thought we were running out of years for Waylon, so why even book him on your show if you're not gonna let him play some songs or tell some stories?
Waylan was the greatest. He put out free concerts for his home town. He not only did that but brought Willy Nelson Chris Kristofferson Johnny Cash with him. He never forget where he came from.

Tom Snyder is a pompous horses ass that was lucky he didn't get smacked around by Waylon Jennings Charles Manson or many of his other guests. He tried to get smart with Ted Turner about colorizing the MGM back catalog when he bought it. Ted told him that he liked him and if he got tired of kissing Jewish ass at the networks to give him a call and he would put him to work. Probably not going to find that show on RUclips, Buddy Hackett was the other guest
Met the man back in Lubbock a few times. Not the "outlaw" he portrayed, actually very polite and personable. We danced to his music the night he passed, cos that's what he would've wanted.
Outlaws aren't assholes, but you can't fuck with em like regular folks. They'll call you out on your shit or just ride away, because you ain't shit. Don't take no shit from nobody.
Waylon did an awesome cameo on Married With Children. He was aa funny as the regulars on the show too. Episode title was The Legend of Ironhead Hayes. RIP Waylon
Who cares about Snyder. We don’t take disrespect lightly where we came from. He found out that day Wayland walked out on him. Waylon was just being Waylon.
Maybe just call Laura and have her fill in the remaining time, maybe go with something like explaining how to douche or something else he might find handy.
Bill oreilly would have interviewed the chair and would scorched the chair verbally until the time was up and then say the chair had every chance to defend itself but chose to remain silent
Snyder had a late night talk show in the 1970s and, I guess, into the 1980s. I didn't realize he came back and had a show in 1998, or maybe I just forgot.
Actually, he was a great interviewer. He had some cutting edge bands on his show like The Plasmatics, Joan Jett, lots of new wave and punk stuff. Dr. Laura has come and gone but when this was taped she was big, so I'm sure the producer on the show wanted to keep her on. ruclips.net/video/qP3Ae5zuexU/видео.html
@@raymond06 I was watching this show....I don't blame Waylon one bit. Never like Dr. Laura,,,,but you are correct,, Snyder was great interviewer....he was ask cutting edge questions.
Waylon, real men just have to be real men. Something that Snyder never understood. Miss you and thanks for all the great music and for just being who you were. Love ya and rest in peace!!!!
Waylon was absolutely right to walk out. It was demeaning and insulting the way Snyder treated him. Snyder was basically saying to Waylon "you're not as important as the other guest, so I'm going to cut down your time and give to them. Be happy you're even here, Tex!"
Waylon was myhero growing up my mother's oldest living brother had every album made growing up listening to his music and witnessing the influence it had on me and my family will always be indelible
I don't blame Him for leaving. If they promised Him the whole then they should have give Him the whole show. I hate talk shows anyway, so that one is definitely on My Shit list from now on.
If they told Mr Jennings he had a certain amount of air time and reneged, he had every right to leave. Since they didn't live up to their side of the bargain, he was under no obligation to hold up his. Good for him !
I’m a big rock/metal head guy, but holy shit I was always listening to Waylon Jennings as a kid because he was simply BAD FUCKING ASS. Now at 52 years old I’m more & more listening to those amazing artists. But damn, Waylon was a bad ass SOB, God Bless him
He is Legend. True Outlaw to the core of his heart. These boys they play these days don’t do shit like that because their pants are too tight to walk out , so they will just sit there and purr 🐈⬛
Waylon was supposed to be on the plane that went down with Buddy Holly. The guy is probably grateful for every day of his life and he's not about to sit around wasting precious minutes he feels lucky to have.
Well done, Waylon. I also respect Angie Dickinson for walking out on This is Your Life when she was misled into thinking she was coming for an interview with someone else.
20 years later who listens or even knows Tom Snyder or a wack job Dr Laura. As for Waylon this is one example, of many undisclosed, which made him a legend beyond his years.
Dr. Laura was a flash in the pan. Yes, a lot of people were talking about her back then because she was controversial, but she had no substance and her fame has plummeted to almost nothing, She has a show on Satellite radio that hardly anyone listens to and you hear very little about her these days. Waylon on the other hand was always a legend. He was a legend back then and today, all these years after his death, he's still a legend. Glad he walked out and didn't accept the disrespectful way he was treated.
Tom Snyder was unorthodox. He had a great voice. He was erudite but he personified "winging it" . After Midnight was a tough slot. After the late show, it was TV filler. All the surveys showed an eclectic audience at best and a divided attention at least. So Tom penciled his guests a slot. I was young, still in high school but on Friday nights Snyder had rock and roll stars. But they wouldn't get on stage til 2am. I was lucky to meet a late night DJ at a Radio Station in Detroit who hosted from 10pm-2am.on Friday nights. I ran errands and searched for records.Cleaned the ashtrays and ran back and forth to coney Island when he had guests. Every Friday night I'd take the tunnel bus back home while hoping to see the guests on Tom Snyder's show. That was my first look at Ted Nugent doing Wango Tango on his Gibson Birdland....he was intentionally louder than Tom liked...made Ted wait...made me laugh. Oh, and my first hearing of Randy Rhodes with Comeback Ozzy Osbourne was on that show...i was stunned. Tom would torture the audience by small talking the guests with just mundane or awkward questions...it was awkward and funny...trying to be 'amiable' and working too hard at it....then Tom would spend time qualifying his first question by interrupting the guest...but he had a great voice. His guests needed to warm up to Tom's gregarious personality. He was unique. If Letterman was left of center with quirky and shallow then Tom was right of center with erudite and colorful. When I joined the army, I really missed Friday nights.
Legitimately I have never heard of Tom Snyder till this video. Meanwhile I'll listen to the same Waylon songs over and over again because they're timeless and will never get old. That is real immortality.
Nothing against Dr. Laura, who had a notable radio career, but she's pretty small potatoes when it comes to Waylon. Like you don't make Johnny Cash wait because you're blabbing on and on with Human Newman.
Wheeeee! Way to go Waylon Jennings...you were doing them a favor for showing up...LOL pie on your Snyde face Tom Snyder. (Who is this Dr. Laura?) RIP Waylon, we love ya! .................................... On second thought, maybe pretty-boy Snyder was a bit afraid of Waylon...you can certainly expect Waylon to tell it like it is...don't tolerate any tom-foolery!
Waylon was a true country boy. Tried & true. He was told he was to have 30 Minutes by Tom Synder & that was not honored. Tom Synder learned something that day, honor you word to a country boy or you will pay. Waylon Jennings on his worst day was better than Tom Synder on his very, very, very best. Semper Fidelis Waylon, you are missed.
"I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane" You are missed Waylon.
Waylon Jennings is a true country music Outlaw. Love this man

Just like his song. "You don't mess around with me"". Way to go Hoss!
A quote from Lord of the Rings: "A wizard is neither late nor early, he arrives precisely when he means to".
Waylon did an awesome cameo on Married With Children. He was aa funny as the regulars on the show too. Episode title was The Legend of Ironhead Hayes. RIP Waylon
Waylon Jennings Legend
Tom who?
Who cares about Snyder. We don’t take disrespect lightly where we came from. He found out that day Wayland walked out on him. Waylon was just being Waylon.
The COOLEST cat ever! I fricken love ol’Waylon!
RIP Waylon! We miss you tremendously!😢
You lie to Waylon and that's what you get.
Maybe just call Laura and have her fill in the remaining time, maybe go with something like explaining how to douche or something else he might find handy.
She's a man hater and would be sure to have something shitty to say about Waylon...
Teachable moment. A deals a deal. Don’t keep a Legend waiting....
Snyder has the same sort of smirk as Rachel Maddow.
Another reason to love ole Waylon!!! Snyder was a joke.
I’m surprised Tom didn’t interview the empty chair. That would’ve been more interesting than “The Doctor”.
Bill oreilly would have interviewed the chair and would scorched the chair verbally until the time was up and then say the chair had every chance to defend itself but chose to remain silent
Tom synder was perfectly played by DAN ACKROYD ON SNL 45 YEARS AFO-
Waylon walked like a BOSS. Don’t keep a legend waiting. Teachable moment.
I’m old enough to have watched Tom Snyder for years, he had a great show. But sounds like his producers really screwed up, another New York screw up
Never heard of Tom Snyder. Guess I didn't miss anything, since Waylon slipped out...
Snyder had a late night talk show in the 1970s and, I guess, into the 1980s. I didn't realize he came back and had a show in 1998, or maybe I just forgot.
Actually, he was a great interviewer. He had some cutting edge bands on his show like The Plasmatics, Joan Jett, lots of new wave and punk stuff. Dr. Laura has come and gone but when this was taped she was big, so I'm sure the producer on the show wanted to keep her on. ruclips.net/video/qP3Ae5zuexU/видео.html
@@raymond06 The Plasmatics blew up his stage on air. Shouda used a bigger charge.
@@raymond06 I was watching this show....I don't blame Waylon one bit. Never like Dr. Laura,,,,but you are correct,, Snyder was great interviewer....he was ask cutting edge questions.
In Australia he wasn't at all on our radar. I only heard of him while looking for talkshow appearances by Don Rickles.
I remember this! We sat up waiting and getting pissed. All was good though, when Tom said Waylon walked. It’s was an I gotta moment.
He was the best of all the best , rest in peace old friend
You're right. Tom was the all time best!
Waylon, real men just have to be real men. Something that Snyder never understood. Miss you and thanks for all the great music and for just being who you were. Love ya and rest in peace!!!!
Waylon was a great gentleman to up and walk out on Tom. WAY TO GO OUTLAW!!!
Snyder u r very rude..Waylon did th right thing and left u to yr guest of choice..arrogance
@Chet Carson That fact that everyone knows that Waylon is dead but not Snyder speaks volumes...don't you think?
@@txryder79 Actually, Tom Snyder died in 2007.
Waylon was absolutely right to walk out. It was demeaning and insulting the way Snyder treated him. Snyder was basically saying to Waylon "you're not as important as the other guest, so I'm going to cut down your time and give to them. Be happy you're even here, Tex!"
I guess that's why I've never heard of Tom Snyder but Waylon Jennings is a legend.
If you’d never heard of Tom Snyder you were pretty fking ignorant 😂
Waylon was right!! Great humble man, RIP.
Waylon's the man, snyder is a joke.
That’s exactly how I remember Waylon Jennings he is a man’s man and he does not take any crap.
Way more had a reputation as a ladies’ man.
Man's man doesn't work no more..Lol
Waylon was myhero growing up my mother's oldest living brother had every album made growing up listening to his music and witnessing the influence it had on me and my family will always be indelible
I don't blame Him for leaving. If they promised Him the whole then they should have give Him the whole show. I hate talk shows anyway, so that one is definitely on My Shit list from now on.
If they told Mr Jennings he had a certain amount of air time and reneged, he had every right to leave. Since they didn't live up to their side of the bargain, he was under no obligation to hold up his. Good for him !
I’m a big rock/metal head guy, but holy shit I was always listening to Waylon Jennings as a kid because he was simply BAD FUCKING ASS. Now at 52 years old I’m more & more listening to those amazing artists. But damn, Waylon was a bad ass SOB, God Bless him
"Ain't livin long like this"!! Ain't waiting long like this, Waylon was the man.
Everyone remembers and loves Waylon ! I never bought a lp,8 track ,cassette,or Cd ,with Tom Snyder on it !
Love him. Never be another Waylon
So true sue 🤠
Hes just a good ol boy. Never meaning no harm. RIP WJ
Some people don't take any crap..
God almighty this is Waylon Jennings! May as well keep Elvis waiting for thirty minutes.
Rest in peace Waylon, you will always be BA!!!!!!
Dr Laura and Tom Snyder together don’t add up to shit compared to the legend Waylon Jennings
Snyder was one of the last No- PC interviewers on TV....raw and spontaneous even when it did not go his way
When you make a promise, keep your promise, even if it is unreasonable.
Actions have consequences. You were incredibly rude to Waylon.
He's just a good old boy, never meaning no harm.
Always showing my hands, but not my face on TV
Gotta love that iconic evening!
I'm the same way...pisses me off when someone tell me I'll be there a particular time and they're late.
Tom Snyder most likely didn't understand that Wayon Jennings was an icon. You don't disrespect an icon!!!
He is Legend. True Outlaw to the core of his heart. These boys they play these days don’t do shit like that because their pants are too tight to walk out , so they will just sit there and purr 🐈⬛
Waylon was supposed to be on the plane that went down with Buddy Holly. The guy is probably grateful for every day of his life and he's not about to sit around wasting precious minutes he feels lucky to have.
Well done, Waylon. I also respect Angie Dickinson for walking out on This is Your Life when she was misled into thinking she was coming for an interview with someone else.
Tom Snyder's MO was to insert what he thought were comic comments, to keep things light. Always smiling. He was very annoying to watch.
I don't blame him for leaving I would have walked in the show and told you to your face that was leaving a****** way2go Wayland
Mess with the bull you get the horn. LOL
Way to go Waylon ,R.I.P.
20 years later who listens or even knows Tom Snyder or a wack job Dr Laura. As for Waylon this is one example, of many undisclosed, which made him a legend beyond his years.
Well just keep your end of the bargain and that sort of thing might not happen huh?
Waylon was so cool, he used to party with the crowd at Mr lucky's and Scenes West.
Waylon was a class act!
As Willy sang Turn out the lights the party’s over!
4 quick things to say....You’re fuckking awesome Waylon. We still love ya. My boys named after ya. We miss ya!!
God bless Waylon Jennings soul!
Waylon did the old, "Fuck me huh???..FUCK YOU"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...Love it!!
Who the He'll is Tom Snyder ? Waylon Jennings is a Legend !
I know this was years ago, but it’s still fresh in the minds of many Waylon fans. Snyder disrespected Waylon in a big way.
Dr. Laura was a flash in the pan. Yes, a lot of people were talking about her back then because she was controversial, but she had no substance and her fame has plummeted to almost nothing, She has a show on Satellite radio that hardly anyone listens to and you hear very little about her these days. Waylon on the other hand was always a legend. He was a legend back then and today, all these years after his death, he's still a legend. Glad he walked out and didn't accept the disrespectful way he was treated.
Don't ever keep Waylon Jennings waiting!
Alright Waylon! 😂
I wish Waylon would have walked up to Dr Laura during her interview and asked her to drop her top. Cuz that's what she does lol.
Tom Snyder was unorthodox. He had a great voice. He was erudite but he personified "winging it" . After Midnight was a tough slot. After the late show, it was TV filler. All the surveys showed an eclectic audience at best and a divided attention at least. So Tom penciled his guests a slot.
I was young, still in high school but on Friday nights Snyder had rock and roll stars. But they wouldn't get on stage til 2am.
I was lucky to meet a late night DJ at a Radio Station in Detroit who hosted from 10pm-2am.on Friday nights. I ran errands and searched for records.Cleaned the ashtrays and ran back and forth to coney Island when he had guests.
Every Friday night I'd take the tunnel bus back home while hoping to see the guests on Tom Snyder's show.
That was my first look at Ted Nugent doing Wango Tango on his Gibson Birdland....he was intentionally louder than Tom liked...made Ted wait...made me laugh. Oh, and my first hearing of Randy Rhodes with Comeback Ozzy Osbourne was on that show...i was stunned. Tom would torture the audience by small talking the guests with just mundane or awkward questions...it was awkward and funny...trying to be 'amiable' and working too hard at it....then Tom would spend time qualifying his first question by interrupting the guest...but he had a great voice. His guests needed to warm up to Tom's gregarious personality. He was unique.
If Letterman was left of center with quirky and shallow then Tom was right of center with erudite and colorful.
When I joined the army, I really missed Friday nights.
Waylon was raised to stand by your word. Amen to that,,,
Legitimately I have never heard of Tom Snyder till this video. Meanwhile I'll listen to the same Waylon songs over and over again because they're timeless and will never get old. That is real immortality.
Nothing against Dr. Laura, who had a notable radio career, but she's pretty small potatoes when it comes to Waylon. Like you don't make Johnny Cash wait because you're blabbing on and on with Human Newman.
Good on him. He can go anywhere else that appreciates him.
Wheeeee! Way to go Waylon Jennings...you were doing them a favor for showing up...LOL pie on your Snyde face Tom Snyder. (Who is this Dr. Laura?) RIP Waylon, we love ya! ....................................
On second thought, maybe pretty-boy Snyder was a bit afraid of Waylon...you can certainly expect Waylon to tell it like it is...don't tolerate any tom-foolery!
Why didn't they keep Dr. Laura on and make it look like they simply bumped Jennings from the show?
Well Tom you took too much time to Talk about yourself, I'm surprised more people didn't walk out on him too.
My little male chihuahua is named Waylon. I love my little guy and love the outlaw Waylon Jennings.
Waylon is a ROCK STAR!!
i wonder what letterman thought of this
bet he thought it was a lesson to learn from.
Letterman-just another Arrogant idiot.
He should've gone out there at least long enough to slap Tom Snyder.
I totally remember watching that show, heard about it that day and couldn't wait to see him...way to go, Tom
Troll much? If you're being serious, then fuck you lol
Waylon was a true country boy. Tried & true. He was told he was to have 30 Minutes by Tom Synder & that was not honored. Tom Synder learned something that day, honor you word to a country boy or you will pay. Waylon Jennings on his worst day was better than Tom Synder on his very, very, very best. Semper Fidelis Waylon, you are missed.
Tommy didn’t learn squat,he’s incapable.
