the audience and you're from texas and uh willie nelson is from texas really here
tonight it's like a big uh texas knight yes sir you know willie i do know willie
well you played at his uh like golf of course though out at the perdonalis yeah
what is that like well it's uh it's pretty leisurely no shoes no shirt required really um
you can uh you can do everything but take your time you got to play pretty fast
why don't you have to take your time i think i don't know man they play kind of as many holes
as you can play until dark yeah he plays a daryl royal friend of ours down there so as many holes
you can get but it's also like if you get you hit a ball behind a tree if you just take a drop
of a yard away they think you're pretty stupid for doing that something called i think a willy
wedge or something you got to throw it out in the fairway and then they call that a good drop
that's it so you just keep playing don't make any difference kick the ball anywhere you want the lie
is no good knocking around it's a pace are you a pretty good golfer i'm decent decent golfer yeah
high school goal is oh is that right she's on the golf team in high school and and will willie is
he all right i mean he's speaking in a hell of a putting stance they call him the one-armed bandit
and he punches weed putts with one arm one hand what is it what is he doing with the other hand
you know what that's a few other things i mean sometimes he's he's rolling things up other times
was it like six months ago you were arrested was that was that or am i thinking it was longer than
that it was like late october now what was the deal on that i was you're at your home
in texas yeah i was at home yeah doing what in austin texas i was playing a little music
banging on some bongos what what time of day was it 2 37 in the am so said the report wow
on a monday morning so so the police come they knock on the door you let them in what happened
well um no i don't they didn't really knock they came on in and i yeah and uh i looked up
and saw two you know that familiar figure and it's blue and you go that's a cop well i'm going to
turn this down yeah and said uh what the hell are you doing in here and before i knew it i was kind
of cuffed and put against a wall whoa yes and has this happened before it has not happened before
and and what what what about how did it happen why did it happen this were you doing something wrong
well i i was playing the music a little too loud and i was playing my bongos a little too loud
and what happened i think i i left a couple of windows open in the back backyard and i had a
couple of new neighbors that i didn't get to know yet and i think um i think it it woke them up and
well not everybody loves bongo music
you know some do some don't that's kind of subjective and it to me it sounded good it sounded
good yeah yeah and you were you were naked is that awful i was buck-necking girl wow how about that
it was a cool austin night 68 degrees had all the
doors and windows open you know it was a full moon there was everything
it just feels better too see this is this is one way you and i are different i've never done that
uh i i understand i understand how it might happen i just haven't gotten around to it yet but i will
uh and were the police did they know who you were were they nice about it um well
they weren't too nice about it i mean no and i don't i don't think they knew who i was until
actually yeah there was uh he went through my my wallet on the uh on the table and i remember
the cop did have a little bit of this oh well look at what we got here oh no of course when
you are naked you have to keep your wallet on the table that's one of the drawbacks yes
so they they take you they take you in they take you to the lockup they take me to the lockup that
took a while to get there um but we did get there and i was in the lock up for about nine hours
nine hours had you ever been in jail before first time yeah what was that experience like it must
have been harrowing uh no it wasn't that bad i mean nine hours in a texas jail ain't that bad
no we had we had we had some entertainment and we had some entertainment along the way um
there was uh i know one thing is i went in pleading injustice i'm
screaming at the top of my lungs i shouldn't be there while i'm there you know a few other
people get brought in through the night um and i noticed that my plea was not original everybody
everybody has a different version of why they shouldn't be there yeah now were you frightened
did you think oh this thing could go haywire and i could go away for a long time well you know what i
took the leap to say i'm probably going to be all right playing bongo's naked i don't think it's in
the book it was one of those ones i was like i did think about it though on the way out i said well
man do i have something that i should really feel bad about it and i was like well mom's not
going to like it that i was in jail but i really don't know what i can blame myself that's right
it's not like anybody was hurt here absolutely and like the old i like the old joke did you talk to
other prisoners about why you were in there i mean is this like um no but i didn't know we i never
got a visual but i i heard them and when we we uh we sang a little song we sing a couple of songs
we did we wild the things that yeah the things to i did all those
i mean i think i even got up and was going through things we did the shadow boxing you know
and uh um and then we uh there was actually there was actually one lady who came in
and she was pretty tuned and uh she was she was driving about not getting her breakfast
breakfast i want my damn breakfast oh my god damn breakfast i was gone and so i'm done and
i'm giggling and i had been this about the eighth hour and i was getting a little tired and i said
you want some scrambled eggs and there's his feet there's his feet that's how he goes damn right i
want my scrambled egg bring my scrambled eggs can we laugh get in the swing of it you can hear that
yeah the sheriff's stuff started laughing so i say uh you want some pancakes and she goes she goes
you damn right no i don't want pancakes i want my scrambled eggs i don't want to i don't tell
you how to live your life but it's not nice to taunt the other prisoners i'm two sails away man
well but everything's all right right i mean it was like a 50 fine and that was about it
yeah the judge looked at it and threw everything out and said
i think she kind of felt how i felt we said how do we get from a noise complaint to
now the guy's in jail yeah we got from a to d what happened in b and c b and c didn't make too much
sense to anybody so i paid 50 and gotten a few laughs from it now did you learn anything from
this experience yes shut those damn windows to the neighbors that you don't know you know
uh and the movie is uh it's a submarine movie a world war ii uh thriller isn't it yeah it's called
u571 it's it's like an old school hollywood film and then it's uh world war ii and it's
got a lot of great characters and a great story line but it's got that the pop of like a really
great action film as well where were you actually shooting in a submarine we had uh submarine models
in in rome life-size subs we had two in rome and then we had one in the mediterranean sea
that we took out that was actually built around a deep sea fishing boat so it couldn't submerge
but we took it out to sea and that's where we shot our exterior so did you get a sense of the
claustrophobia that life must be in a submarine pretty much i mean you know you had the you had
your trailer and stuff to head to afterwards so it wasn't anything here is heroin and of course
the bongos yes good to see you matthew nice to have you back with us welcome back to freedom
