TWANG JONES
The Story of Twang Jones
Ok, if you haven't figured it out by now...Twang Jones doesn't exist and he was never our 5th bass player...well...sorta not really ....
Twang Jones, the rhinstoned denim super rock idol legend was orginally a band name when Bobby Sharples was playing out west many years ago, the photo was a picture taken of a drifter found wandering in the desert, the band liked the rawness of the photo so much they started using him on their band posters (pictured above) When the band played out at bars...everyone asked.. "Where's Twang??" and Bobby would always tell them... "oh he's passed out in the van or laying out back wasted and couldn't make it."
It's been a running joke for years that we've adopted. All problems, missing or misplaced items, shortages of beer, sound and lighting problems are still blamed on poor Twang, ...damn that twang...I don't know why we keep him in the band...he never shows up for gigs....but you should hear him play and sing...he's amazing...if only his voice was recordable.....here's to you Twang...CHEERS...Where ever you are!!
