Armadillo images3/4/2023 More info on Eric Geadelmann’s co-panelists for AmericanaFest's THEY CALLED US OUTLAWS panel on Saturday September 17 (2:30PM CT) at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum: This program will be some Dillo fun, in the Austin way.” The opportunity to share the stage in the Ford Theater with Delbert, REK, Frank and Chris is very surreal and I’m so appreciative of each of them and thankful for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and the Americana Music Association for the occasion. It was a melting pot where rock met country, folk, R&B and more, and where some of the biggest names in American music found their audience during the 70s. Geadelmann stated, “As we work to complete the project, it’s such an honor to take time-out and be part of AmericanaFest to preview such an important part of Americana Music history, Austin’s 'homegrown' Armadillo World Headquarters. They came from all over the state, all over the region. It was safe. And you might be able to cop some pot there." Van Morrison, Zappa, Ballet Troops, Wet Willy was another one. Little Feet was huge, you know. The southern rock guys did great there, especially Marshall Tucker and Charlie Daniels. The Armadilloers, they were hippies, man. "The Armadillo was a big deal,” says Ray Benson, who played the iconic venue over a dozen times. Chris Coleman will also lead the audience through "Dillo-specific anthems." The piece of the film was also included in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s recent major exhibit, Outlaws & Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ’70s, which Geadelmann co-curated. The AmericanaFest program for THEY CALLED US OUTLAWS will include an exclusive screening of a documentary segment focused on the ARMADILLO WORLD HEADQUARTERS. The trailer features clips of the documentary’s interviews with Colter, Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris, Shooter Jennings, Miranda Lambert, Billy Joe Shaver, Eric Church, Margo Price, Tyler Childers and Matthew McConaughey as well as rare performance footage from Austin’s legendary music venue, the Armadillo World Headquarters. Narrated by Jack Ingram and featuring over one hundred interviews with both the era’s most iconic figures (including Keen and McClinton) and those who carry the torch today, the six-part epic is executive produced by Grammy Hall of Fame award recipient Jessi Colter, and nine-time Grammy winner Ray Benson, in partnership with the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.Īrmadillo World Studios recently shared the first trailer for THEY CALLED US OUTLAWS in a “first look” feature with Rolling Stone.
