Fort Worth, Texas<\/strong> \u2013 The newly launched hour-long program \u201cLive at Billy Bob\u2019s Texas,\u201d airing weekly on RFD-TV takes the music fan inside the world\u2019s largest honky tonk \u2013 Billy Bob\u2019s Texas \u2013 all while highlighting the best in both country music and Texas music from artists who have performed on the main stage over the past 20 years.<\/p>\n

In a partnership that started over 20 years ago, Smith Music Group has gathered a collection of their favorite cuts – including icons Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson with newer artists like Shooter Jennings – and put them into a TV show! You\u2019ll see exclusive interviews, one offs from up-and-comers and intimate backstage acoustic performances.<\/p>\n

About Billy Bob’s Texas:<\/u><\/strong>
\nLocated in the heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District, the 100,000 square foot cattle barn became Billy Bob\u2019s Texas in 1981. Since then more than 17 million visitors have enjoyed live entertainment and real bull riding at \u201cThe World\u2019s Largest HonkyTonk\u201d.<\/p>\n

The facility can hold 6000 rowdy patrons on a given night and has been host to hundreds of musical acts, from Alan Jackson to ZZ Top. On Fridays and Saturdays, the venue also features live bull riding – a step up from the mechanical variety. It seems like an unlikely source for a series that has sold millions of albums.<\/p>\n

Billy Bob\u2019s has been named the Country Music Club of the Year 10 times by the Academy of Country Music.<\/p>\n

I’m going to tell you honestly folks, I LOVE live record series like Live At Billy Bob’s or Austin City Limits. I collect them with great love and rejoice when I find pieces I need. I personally salivate over the the anticipation of opening my new additions to the series. The most pertinent reason these episodes are  important is preservation of history for future generations to enjoy. This may be an ample opportunity to reach new fans for some of the artists featured on this series.<\/p>\n

Imagine now we can actually WATCH the ambiance of Mr. Billy Joe Shaver, as he growls out his live version of “Wacko From Wako” or if you enjoy Red Dirt you have Mr Wade Bowen or Mr. Stoney LaRue doing the “Oklahoma Breakdown”. History has been captured one of Texas Music’s most beloved disbanded groups Cross Canadian Ragweed as they played their iconic “Boys From Oklahoma”.<\/p>\n

From The Website:<\/p>\n

Over 20 years ago, Pat Green became the first artist to record a Live at Billy Bob\u2019s Texas album. Since then, another forty-nine artists would go on to record in the World\u2019s Largest Honky Tonk. Smith Music Group has gathered a collection of their favorite cuts from the last two decades \u2013 including icons Willie Nelson and David Allan Coe with newer artists like Shooter Jennings \u2013 and put them into a TV Show! You\u2019ll see exclusive interviews, one offs from up-and-comers and intimate backstage acoustic performances.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was my Dad\u2019s wish that the Live at Billy Bob\u2019s Texas series would be aired like this,\u201d Ricky Smith, current CEO and son of Smith Music Group founder Rick Smith. \u201cRick Smith Sr. had a grand plan to record all the big name acts in country at Billy Bob\u2019s Texas and have it air across the country. He recorded a bunch before he passed on, giving Nashville a run for their money. We\u2019ve done a few artists that are outside the Country genre since then, like the Toadies. We\u2019re still hoping to capture as many artists as we can. This is a place that has hosted Chuck Berry and Waylon Jennings.\u201d<\/p>\n

A lofty goal, considering the amount of artists that grace the mainstage throughout the year. The 100,000 square foot facility can hold 6000 rowdy patrons on a given night and has been host to hundreds of musical acts, from Alan Jackson to ZZ Top. On Fridays and Saturdays, the venue also features live bull riding \u2013 a step up from the mechanical variety. It seems like an unlikely source for a series that has sold millions of albums.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are several times that Smith Music Group and Billy Bob\u2019s Texas has put everything on the line to make the album series happen,\u201d Ricky continues. \u201cIt takes a whole lot of hard work to get artists like Willie Nelson or The Charlie Daniels Band. But we have them, and more. With this new Live at Billy Bob\u2019s Texas TV series, we hope to find someone that hasn\u2019t seen these videos. Hopefully, a longtime fan will share it with the next generation. After twenty years, there are still quite a few fans that remember that first show with Pat Green. They\u2019re still passing on the memory of that experience every time he comes back to the Billy Bob\u2019s Texas mainstage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Billy Bob\u2019s Texas is located in Fort Worth Stockyards in Fort Worth, TX.
