In addition, Lindsay has a rich history that includes its role in the citrus boom, the development of modern irrigation, and the invention of the first tractor-drawn grain harvester.
The story of meeting the gal next to me is a special one that just added to the crazy coolness of this bar. I was coming out of a bathroom stall and she was heading in. She greeted me warmly and before doing what she came in to do, reach out her hand and said, "Before I use the bathroom, I have to meet you. I've never seen you here and I come here a lot!" She asked why I was there and also what was my name. When I told her she said, that she was also Denise but she spelled her name with a Y. Denyse is part of the foundation that brought the neon back to the Lindsay Theater's marquee which is awesome because last time we were here is was dark and not nearly as magical.
Back to why we were in Lindsay in the first place, James Garner's Tribute to Johnny Cash.
"For the past 17 years, Garner and his band have faithfully recreated Cash’s biggest hits with stunning accuracy in this not-to-be-missed musical event. From special concert airings on PBS stations to shows at Folsom and San Quentin Prisons, it’s easy to see why this is the premier tribute to the “Man in Black.” The show is a fun, toe-tapping trip down memory lane honoring Johnny Cash's life and music, and the boom-chicka-boom sound of his longtime backing band, the Tennessee Three. Enjoy the hits of the Man in Black all over again: Folsom Prison Blues, Ring of Fire, I Walk the Line, A Boy Named Sue and more!"
Lindsay Community Theatre (1933) was the ideal venue. It is quaint and historic.
This video is the opening song. With the first note, we knew it was going to be fabulous!
Several attendees had never been to one of these concerts. All were aptly impressed when the show concluded.
After every show, James comes out and greets his fans. He remembers their names and makes each feel special. I can't recommend his show enough. Find him!
This is the comment I left on James' Facebook page: "Oh my gosh, just when you think life could not possibly get any better you find yourself in the town of Lindsay, in the company of musical magic! This is our second emersion into the wonderful world of Johnny Cash in Lindsay and our fourth being mesmerized by James Garner and his talented band. James, you are such a gracious host and a truly a gifted performer. Your music and storytelling continues to delight. Even Steve has a crush on you! We can't wait to stalk, I mean see, you somewhere else soon!"
