Thanks Piper!
Hi Piper...so your rock and roll dad loved The Never-ending Story...Now that cracked me up😃
Piper thank you for everything you can share about "Growing Up Dandy".❤️
Many thanks for sharing your memories, Piper - I love thses videos!
My pleasure dude! Thanks for watching!!
I have always treated my daughter like an adult. Some times you have to tone it down a bit. When those feelings get in. /girl feelings you know. My baby girl used to fall asleep on my belly with me watching fraggle rock. All of my family pets are buried in the back yard. I dug most of the holes, wrapped them in blanket and hugged their cold bodies and cried a tear. I loved all of them just like a family member. The last one we had cremated just a couple of weeks ago. It was hard to put him down but his bad days were far out weighing his good days after he suffered a mild stroke. He was 17 years old. I played pole position also with my daughter. WOW.
I met Jim in the early 90s in Bowling Green Kentucky I first saw them in concert in the same town in the 70s and I have been a fan ever since and he talked to me like he had known me all my life and I love him but in a manly way mind you!
I have always loved Crossroads.Lightnin boy!
Crossroads is a damned good movie, I agree. I just streamed it about 3 months back. Patrick Swayze was a hero of mine as a kid. Red Dawn was a HUGE movie in my childhood.
Thank You!
No, thank YOU for watching! ❤️
Piper, One of the coolest things that happened to me was getting a call from Atlantic Records a few years ago. AJ Deprimo had discovered an album of Black Oak shots I took around 1978-79 way before your time! But three of the shots made it on Back Thar and Over Yonder and a few of their webisodes!. This gives me awesome bragging rights between my friends. I can pull out the CD and say LOOK, I got my name on a Black Oak Album! The full resolution shots are here! I grew up my adult life on the road but not quite in your style. I lived out of a van, then a twenty foot travel trailer, then a 30 footer. I did Frisbee shows for many years maybe 30. www.flickr.com/photos/shanesflyingdiscshow/albums/72157632825476428. I give them a tribute here. shaneksmithphotography.com/2020/05/03/black-oak-arkansas/.
I should add links to your work if you don't mind!
Oh my gosh how cool! And heck yeah that would be badass! Thank you!
@@TheRealPiperDandy THANK YOU! I truly believe your dad has one of the most "FUN" voices in music history. His sound is distinct! Of course he assumes the stage like no other and has always had style. It is great to see that you turned out with your head on straight!
So your parents were Mr. Fancy, and Fancy Nancy :-) Awesome video. Now I have to go back and watch the first 7 episodes. Love your channel. Huge, huge fan of BOA.
coozmokramer yes indeedy! And thanks for checking out my channel! I hope you enjoy!
Enjoying these shared memories!! I was a big BOA fan and lucky enough to meet your dad , Tommy Aldridge and Stanley Knight before and after some shows in '74-75. Your dad autographed a Get Well card for a buddy of mine who couldn't make their show. He was so nice even though he and the band were huge at the time. Still love those guys ( RIP Goober) !! Thanks Piper!
butler thorne aww that’s rad! Thanks for watching!
I really am enjoying these so much! Crossroads was my fave as a little girl.
My sister loved fraggle rock, she's 44 and I'm 56.
Myself and two buddies moved your mom, you and Jim Jr. out of the Lodge. I remember your Great Danes (Geronimo and if I remember right Zeus?) they thought they were moving into the Ryder truck. I am still sad to be the one who closed that large gate closing the chapter of BOA in Oakland, Arkansas. I’ve always made an attempt to see JD and Rickie whenever they are nearby. I’m also thrilled to hear Nancy is doing so well, she is a class act! I really enjoy your videos, I’m sure you make your parents proud!
Sid Pierce the dogs were Geronimo and Maggie May! The old lodge is actually a resort now! It’s called the black oak resort! We should all go stay there and throw a party sometime!
I keep in contact with my step son who lives just a few hundred feet from the Lodge. His grandpa, Chuck Keckhaver drove for BOA. Just say the word, and the party is on! I feel a great coming on once this darkness passes!
Sid Pierce it’s a plan Stan!!
Roadhouse, with the Jeff Healey Band! :-)
Sounds like you had a fantastic childhood 😊 I watch law and order too , lol
Great stories ! Hailing from Chile .BOA , was our thing watching your dad on TV , coming from school . Powerful great rock n roll. May the Lord bless him
Fantastic stuff. Love these videos.
OC44K thank you! And thanks for watching!
Met your dad once at Lampe. I was with JT Mansfield and Joni. I used to live with them.
Remember Swiss Villa Amphitheater now it's called Black Mountain Amphitheater I believe I seen Willy Nelson and Family in 1985 at the place lots of curvy roads getting there I do remember that lol , did get to see BOA after I moved to Memphis pretty cool dudes signed my Raunch and Roll album too ✌️🤘
Hey Piper! My cousin Connie married Butch Stone. Do you remember her kids Dennis or Denise or Jessica? They lived in Black Oak for a while and loved it.
I’m still currently friends with Dennis and Denise to this day.
Piper, I have been a BOA fan since the early 1970s. Enjoy listening to your stories! I saw the road interview with you and your dad and he said he was moving to his parents home in Black Oak. I heard him say he had never lived alone but I saw in an interview with a magazine he was married to the girl that sings in his band. Not trying to get personal or nosy but just curious.
+Brenda Ray Nope. They don’t even date. His last wife was a lovely lady named Donna Ruth. My mom was Fancy Nancy Mangrum and they were married 17 years, he and Donna were married over 10. He was married to my older brother Jim Jr.’s mom before my mom.
That you for the answer Piper. You are a cutie. Enjoy your stories.
Aww thank you!
Sounds like you had a great upbringing 💚👍
I absolutely did!
I love your videos! I’ve been a fan of your dad’s since day one, and that’s a long time! I’m 59 now and born in Little Rock. Still have family in Conway, Sercy, and Jonesboro. I’ve always wanted to meet your dad so if you don’t mind, would you please tell him this old Arkansas boy said hello and thank him for the music. BOA is the reason I have been a musician since I was 6! Big fan of yours too! God bless you and your family. All the best!
Awww! Thank You Sir! If you're ever able to catch any of his shows, he ALWAYS hangs out afterwards to chat, sign stuff and tell stories. That would be the easiest way to meet him.
I loved it all,ur so passionate about making your Dad happy,you so rock piper,don't ever change!tell your Dad this i promise hell love it.so i was 8 years old and snuck into my brothers room,which was a huge no no, and put on his jim dandy 8 track got into his stash and trashed his whole room rocking out to ur dad on jack daniels and Mary Jane for the first time ,mind you but had a blast rocking out and smashing his whole room.lmao!im talking barefoot,motley crue t,air guitar,and wasted.never forget it.i got my ass tore up but it was well worth it. Oh and btw,your Dad knew my brother francis Gates personaly and he asked me today if he still lives in black oak Arkansas.Rock on jim Dandy!!!!!!!!and ty piper for letting me share
Your dad sounds alot like my dad we used to play video games alot growing up I'm guessing you're the baby of the family and have older brothers , my brother and I are 11 and 9 years older than my little sister and we're very protective.
I noticed a lot of similarities between Dave Lee Roth and your dad. Did they ever meet at any time and was this discussed. 🙋
Loved those memories! I was born in 81, so basically the same age, and when it came to entertainment my parents never censored me. Heather’s was my favorite movie when I was about 8, and at 9 Beverly Hills 90210 was my favorite tv show. I went to private school and all of the kids and their families were very conservative, so I was the odd one out, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. We got to watch all the cool shit as kids, we were not deprived!
I love the movie Crossroads (Not the Britney one LOL)! One of my favorite parts is when Willie Brown is trying to explain what the blues is to Eugene (Macchio):
Willie- "You ain't even the beggining of a pimple on the late great Robert Johnson's ass! You might have a little lightning, but you're missing everything else."
Eugene- "Like what?"
Wille- "Mileage! You can't get that by living home with your mama wiping your ass."
Eugene- "I don't live at home."
Willie- "Oh yeah, where do you live?"
Eugene- "At school in the dormatory."
Willie- "The school dormatory? Oh times is haaard. TIIIIMES IS HAAARD!!"
Another one:
Eugene- "Tell me this isn't Son House (Plays a couple of blues licks)"
Wille- "Sounds like bird shit!"
LMAO, Funny as hell!
John Welch lolololol best movie ever. We watched that and “the last waltz” with the band about 4764314688432677532 times when I was growing up. Lol
You know you love some Brittney Spears😅🤣😂
I need to ask your dad for your hand in marriage
I love pole position. Want one in my home.
