RIP Norm MacDonald
Here's Norm and his best friend, the late Billy Joe Shaver (one of Dickey's good friends)
I will have to dig out Dirty Work, I remember it being pretty funny.
When Norm McDonald came back to host Saturday Night Live he said something like "they got rid of me because I wasn't funny enough now I'm hosting because I'm so funny"
@nebish haha close, he said “it’s not that I suddenly got funny, it’s that the show sucks!”
He was brilliant
Here's a fun photo that @robertdee should appreciate - Nick Nolte, Bill Joe Shaver, Duane Betts, and Norm.
@porkchopbob Yes indeed Porkchopbob! I do appreciate that and I am fans of all those people. Norm was part of a rather lengthy list of very talented people who served us on Saturday Night Live!!
Nick is a strong actor. 48 Hours had that great song from Glenn Frey. The Heat is On!!!!!
Billy Joe Shaver was one of Dickey's favorite song composers.
I remember seeing Glenn Frey being interviewed and he talked about how ideas for songs often just present themselves unexpectedly. He said once a friend picked him up in a Corvette and soon they were on a freeway in LA and the guy zooms up to a hundred miles an hour and Glenn looked at him and said " Hey what in the hell do you think you are doing?" And his friend said " Life in the fast lane man!!"
