Kenny Wayne (Shepherd?)

Posted By Alan Cohen in Soundcheck on January 1, 2006

One area that we really hope to cover over the next few months at TexasGigs is the great blues heritage we have here in Dallas. It is something that I am particularly interested in, so very soon after joining the team here I began researching blues musicians that have made Dallas their home. That is when I came across the legendary Kenny Wayne. I immediately wanted to meet this Dallas blues icon, so I sent him an e-mail to see if he would be interested in letting us interview him about his career in music. His reply was the greatest e-mail I have ever received in my entire life. Here it is in its entirety:

Hey Alan;

Hell yeah I'm interested; that is if you're not Bull Shittin' my ego

and if it ain't gonna' cost me anything?

I'd be very honored!

However I'm wonderin' if you're not confusin' me with

an almost same named "Fortunate Son" of a Top Rock

FM-Radio Station Gen. Mg./Music Director and Major Artist Concert

Promoter" ["Shot Gun Ken Shephard" real name Kenneth Wayne

Brobst, Sr.} and who's also his Jr. Boy's Mgr.! I'm talkin' 'bout

"The Little Non-Sangin' Little Stevie Ray Vaughan Guitar Licks

Note Fer' Note Copy Cat" outta' Blanchard, LouzyAnnie who at the

ripe old non-dues ever paid age of 17, AND usin' "MY over 37 years legal

copyrighted trademark International Recording/Singer/Song Writer/Musician

name," "KENNY WAYNE" and NOT using NO Bogus last name "Shephard!"

confused the head Starplex's Mgr./Booker/promoter and stole my

CO-Starrin' In Concert gig on the "BB King"/"Allman Bros./"The Aligator

Records Blues All Stars Blues Fest" at The Coke Cola Starplex

back in 1993; Who was and still is Illegally usin' My Legal Copyrighted

Trade Name in ALL facets of ALL Music (ALL Styles Of Music) Business

Related ventures by usin' the name "KENNY WAYNE coupled with

the Bogus last name "Shepherd!" And who's real name is,"Kenneth

Wayne Brobst, Jr.!"

So; Are you confused, Alan?

If NOT; then by all means my Plazma', let's Do Da' Doo, and let everybody

who 'THE REAL & ORIGINAL KENNY WAYNE " is; It's "ME!"

"Cause you know that when you spread da' Real Honest ta' Gawd' facts;

Although I have responded to him several times, I have not heard back from Kenny Wayne since receiving this glorious e-mail. Kenny, if you are out there, I want you to know that there is not a single person I would rather have come to the TexasGigs studio for an interview. There is only one Kenny Wayne, and you are he.
