Wednesday took me to a high noon gig at Zingo's outdoor patio on Buck Owens Boulevard, where I gave away an autographed CD and sang a few original Dr BLTunes, including Buck Owens Boulevard, Goin' Nowhere Fast, and Opening Act for the Rolling Stones.  As usual, the numbers attending...

Today on BAKERSFIELD SOUNDoff, I'm featuring two blog 'n' roll questions.  The first is a trivia question.  Who wrote the song, The Streets of Bakersfield?  The second springs from the truism that Bakersfield once spawned a steady stream of country stars, Merle Haggard...

 You might say I'm driving down the right lane, facing traffic with this song, an answer to Merle Haggard's song about Hillary?  What side of the street are you on when it comes to Merle's political views----the side he introduced when he wrote, recorded and released The Fightin' Side...

  While at least one of you was looking for me on Buck Owens Boulevard on Monday, February 25, 2008, around noon, I was sitting on the patio at Zingo's Cafe after having downed a burger, fries and a salad, starring at a sign and becoming inspired by that sign to pen this song....

 Good morning.  I'm Dr BLT, and I'm here to introduce the freshly paved Merle Haggard Drive, featuring Mystery Merley Girly.  I'm also here to categorically deny all rumors associated with the song, including the rumor that when you play the song backwards, it says, "I'm the...

It seemed like the perfect metaphor to depict my life.  I was clearly under the weather, but couldn't miss this for the world.  I was attending the official street naming party for Merle Haggard and the ceremony was wrapping up.  I had my open pen in hand and my Merle Haggard's 16...
