PICNIC? Sorta. Willie played a July 3 Picnic in Tulsa, Okla.
WHAT HAPPENED: After the Gonzales debacle, Willie took the Picnic idea out of state, playing at the Tulsa Fairgrounds Speedway, drawing a crowd quoted by the Oklahoman as "far above the 40,000-50,000 expected to attend."
We can't confirm where Willie was on the Fourth, but one former Austin club owner, Roger Collins, recalls that Willie played the newly opened Austin Opry House, but that it was not billed as any sort of picnic.
LINEUP: The July 3 gig included Lynyrd Skynrd and Jerry Jeff Walker.
QUOTE: "Man, I've had it. The sun is a lot hotter than the music," said one Texan quoted by the Oklahoman newspaper.
