Bob Wayne Release Date Delayed / New Band Lineup
Today was going to be the release date for Bob Wayne’s new album Outlaw Carnie, but despite a big press push the last few days, it will not come out until January 25, 2011. Wayne had originally been warning folks the new album wasn’t going to be out until early 2011, but then Oct. 26 had been thrown out there as the date. The new album also at one point was going to be called “From The Camper to the Cadillac.” It includes a few new Bob Wayne songs, and new recordings of some of his more well-known songs from three previous independent releases.
Meanwhile Bob has been driving around the country in a limo with steer horns tied on the front, renting troupes of midgets to help him record videos for songs like “Driven By Demons,” and most recently touring with Th’ Legendary Shack Shakers. Now he’s doing his own tour with the ever-revolving Outlaw Carnie lineup that at the moment includes Billy Cook from the .357 String Band on lead guitar, and the very intriguing (and very dishy) Liz Sloan on fiddle.
To see a female fiddle player in Bob’s band was unique enough, but when I started cyberstalking, the only other reference I could find was her playing with Leroy Virgil of Hellbound Glory. Yes, this girl is a part of the overall underground country movement, whether we (or her) knew it or not.
Bob Wayne will be in my neck of the woods later this week, and I hope to get the skinny on the new album, the new fiddle girl, etc., as soon as MIT gets back with me on my request to have my molecular structure split so I can be in two places at once. See, the same night Bob Wayne is playing, so is Whitey Morgan & The 78’s in Luckenbach.

hope Bob makes it back to my neck of the woods with fiddle girl in tow. seen this ol’ boy 5 times, helluva nice guy, great performer, overall legend in this scene.

i really dont get this dude. ive seen him a few times and bought one of his records and i gotta say i think he sucks… big time. i dont think his song writing is very good at all and its very formulaic and it all seems like an act. but thats just me.

I can’t wait to get this one. I love his CD-R’s from his camper, but a cool professional release with artwork etc will be something else. I hope he’ll come back to Germany with his band. I love this guy.

Looks like he’s planning to be in Europe in January.

Great news, thanks!

Also the track listing for this is up on Amazon.
For anyone considering pre-ordering it through there, you should do it via the link to Amazon in the top right (next to the album art).

Nice! They must have just put it up. I really like the songs and order. It is giving me a little more faith in this project.
October 26, 2010 @ 11:47 am
Triggerman! I have already tried to figure this out how to see both.
Bob starts a 10pm in Austin and its an hour half to Luckenbach…. well,
dang it. but great write up on Bob!!! His new fiddle player is smokin;!!!! see you Saturday!!

I just saw Bob Wayne last week, and I had already heard of Liz-the-smokin–hot-fiddle-player thanks to our own Triggerman. The photos really don’t do her justice. I’m not one to gush, but she is gorgeous, a GREAT fiddle player, and she’s got stage presence. She held her own with all that testosterone. That’s awesome she’s played with Leroy before. She’s the only one in the band I actually had a chance to speak to.
It was a great live show by the way, Bob played over his allotted time, and still did an encore!

However, Bob Wayne or Whitey Morgan? I’d say head to Luckenbach Triggerman. At least, that’s what I’d do. Either way you can’t lose!

One of the things I am proud of about the Saving Country Music movement is that there are womerns involved, and they are purdy AND talented. This makes me happy.
It’s gonna be Whitey, but I’m gonna try to figure out how to hook up with Bob and gang and get the scoop.
October 26, 2010 @ 7:20 pm
womerns. I love it. All hail Unknown. Right Now
October 26, 2010 @ 4:05 pm
When you see her tell her that creep in Bakersfield thinks she’s pretty.
October 26, 2010 @ 6:43 pm
cool about the womern fiddle player, where’s the rest of the .357??
they were the Outlaw Carnies when we saw Bob in E.Nashville.
is .357 still together?
October 26, 2010 @ 9:06 pm
Sorry Cathy, meant to elaborate on that. Like Kunzy said, Billy was an Outlaw Carnie before he was a .357 String Bander. That’s how the .357 met him, through Bob. There’s a good story behind it, I think they were both playing a motorcycle rally or some such and we’re hanging out together. Then Billy moved to Austin. After Bob’s tour .357 is heading to Europe.
October 26, 2010 @ 7:22 pm
Cathy, .357 is still together. Billy cook was actually in bobs band before he joined up with .357. When .357 was backing bob, they were also on tour together so it wasn’t a permanent thing.

Sounds like pre-order time! tHANKS!!!

[…] The new album from Bob Wayne, titled Outlaw Carine has been pushed back to January 25. […]
October 31, 2010 @ 1:45 pm
Wow, curious stuff…Johnny Semour/Johnny Cash…?
October 28, 2010 @ 1:03 am
Yes, Liz is awesome. I’m, really happy things worked out to where she was able to join the crew, and I see a lot of miles ahead for us. Billy’s leaving next week to hook back up with 357 and we are picking up Andy Gibson in Nashville for the last 2 weeks of the USA run (Hank 3 is gonna be freshly off tour so Andy will be free) Yes friends, that’s gonna be a hell of a line up. It’s always fun jammin with Andy. We may even switch rides from the Cadillac Limo to the John Deere Camper as its parked on the side of Andy’s house and we cant fit his dog Rocky in the Limo. Yep, gonna dust off the old John Deere for a while……or wait ….would that be to contrived….or to much of an act….it definately sucks……….GAS THAT IS hehehhe?…..fuck it, its all i got….its gonna have to do!
October 28, 2010 @ 8:43 am
Would kill to see Andy Gibson as a Carnie. Live of course.
October 28, 2010 @ 5:30 am
I was happy to see Bob Wayne and .357 together. I hope he works the kinks out and releases soon. As far as Liz Sloan, sorry fellas, I don’t give a toot what she looks like. If she can work the fiddle, I like her!

Bob’s outstanding. Great to work with, super down to earth. I worked on the album, the cover is my hand as well as most of the interior…guess a couple more months ’til we get to see it. Carry on BOB!!

Normally I can pick you work out in a crowd Keith but didn’t notice this one. Great job nonetheless!
