THE BEAT GOES ON
“By the way,” John said, as I was picking my records up off the counter, “Porter and Dolly are coming to Berkeley Community Theatre on the ninth.” Good Lord! Is that a fact? Country music shows come to the San Francisco area about as often as they come to Harlem.
THE BEAT GOES ON
Porter Wagoner & Dolly Porton Live In...Berkeley?
“By the way,” John said, as I was picking my records up off the counter, “Porter and Dolly are coming to Berkeley Community Theatre on the ninth.” Good Lord! Is that a fact? Country music shows come to the San Francisco area about as often as they come to Harlem. “Wow,” sez I, “I’ll call up RCA tomorrow and see if we can’t get tickets.”
No problem, the man in LA said. He knows I’ve been a big fan of Porter and Dolly for years now, and I’ve never seen them. Just call our guy in San Francisco and he’ll set everything up. An interview, just a short one, maybe? Sure, sure.. Maybe on the bus, resplendent in its $250,000 interior that was just added last year? Sure. The RCA guy in San Francisco was eager to help, said, just go to the boxoffice on the night of the show and pick up yer ducats.
