Waylon

Today is 'people Friday'. Marnie asked if the people photo theme was a 365 theme or just my personal theme. It is my own theme. About a year ago I decided to put a 'people' photo on here every Friday and wondered how long I would be able to keep up the theme for. Well as you can see it is still going.

Today's people photo is of a Waylon Jennings look alike who played at the Tocal Field Day we went to recently with the photo club. The other half of the act was the Willie Nelson look alike who I posted a photo of last Friday.

I knew of Willie Nelson, but didn't know much about Waylon Jennings. Apparently he was a country music singer too and he and Nelson had an album together in 1978.

great shot Babs

[Marnie]

Lovely shot Babs, and I love your people theme. There's a song about 'Willie, Waylon and me', but I'm not too certain who the 'me' was. Maybe Johnny Cash?

[Ruby]

Nice portrait

[Hazel]

The names are unfamiliar to me but this is a great portrait!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great candid portrait

[sally agnew]

[Eve Pulsater]

What a lovely shot, Babs. You certainly meet some interesting people.

[Babs]

@annied Thanks Annie. It was a really good day at Tocal. Lots to see.

[Babs]

@golftragic Thanks Marnie. Just Googled the song you mentioned and it was by David Allan Coe. Never heard of him, but I was a Mod in the 60s in the UK!

[Babs]

@ourrube @quietpurplehaze @beryl @hermann Thanks. I had heard of Willie Nelson Hazel but I had to look up who Waylon was.

[Babs]

@gerry Thanks so much for the fav Gerry.

[Babs]

@creampuff Thanks. I try to find some interesting people and some find me. ha ha.

Great shot! I like how it says Waylon on his guitar strap.

[Nancy]

I love taking photos of celebs but rarely get to stumble upon one. Neat photo.

[Babs]

@lynnz @nanm I think these two chaps did a very good job of Willie and Waylon impersonations. Last week I posted the photo of Willie Nelson look alike. http://365project.org/onewing/365/2014-05-09 they were both singing together and everything was very authentic about their appearance even down to the guitar straps. and guitars being like the original artists. They sang pretty well too.

A wonderful candid, people shot Babs! Love the capture of passion on his face, impressive! x

[CINDY JOHNSON]

[Peter]

Great image of the singer Bads, lovely capture and depth of field:)

[Kathie]

He's definitely in character. Neat shot.

[Laurie F]

cool shot

[Gena Pegg]

He does look a bit like Waylon! Nice capture!

[Marnie]

@onewing Thanks for chasing up that loose end Babs. Must confess that his name rings no bells!

[Babs]

@lilminimonka @pittcj17 @pcoulson @kathiecb @lafish @eyesmile @golftragic Thanks so much. I have to admit I didn't know who Waylon Jennings was when I took the picture. I knew of Willie Nelson though and they were both such a great duo and look alikes.

[Chris Stapleton]

Great shot

[Lois]

Great candid shot!
