They used to close down a classic old bar called the Dixie Chicken in College Station by playing this song followed by Pissin in the WInd. Everyone would be standing on the benches and chairs singing them both. Good stuff.
Seen JJW many times but the best was undoubtedly at the "Palamino" in north Hollywood circa (1979). Still had the Lost Gonzo Band with him. They played a midnight set 2 hours long. They weren't done when the club cut the power. JJW pushed the mike away and they kept going until the cops came at about 3am. 'Bout 10 of us hanging on... JJ invited us to their hotel they played until daylight, smokin' cigarettes and drinkin' beer. I actually when down for the count there in the hotel bar.
I`ve seen JJW a few times , Bars in Memphis to the top of the Peabody Hotel, last time was at Grand Central Station in Anchorage Alaska back in the 90s....always had a great show
Repeating myself here but if you're a Tried And True Warrior you need to come to Camp Belize. Join about 150 people next January who know every word of every Jerry Jeff song and aren't ashamed to sing along. No better way to spend a cold, snowy January than sitting on Wet Willie's dock with 150 new friends with a cold Belikin in your hand singing along to Jerry Jeff.
I heard it the first time on a snowy night in the Colorado Rockies. A bunch of crazy friends were celebrating keeping warm. My sister and I danced to it all night. Now, the man who wrote it Chuck Pyle is my neighbor in this tiny Colorado town. This song got me through my life, Chuck says the same..Keep 'er Steady Chuck

"Crashin' through your door." Gosh, that's sweet.
