Billie Joe Shaver, the guy who sings the theme for Squidbillies, is a regular at a club near my university.

Very cool.
Few questions though, What's Squidbillies? (sounds like a spongebob related band or something?). Who is Billie Joe Shaver? and what University?

Squidbillies is a show on Adult Swim that features a family of redneck squids who live in the mountains of northern Georgia. Billie Joe Shaver is a country singer. The university is Texas State University-San Marcos (in San Marcos, Texas--between San Antonio and Austin).

Love Billy Joe and the Squidbillies. My favorite of his is "Ragged Old Truck" and "Because you Asked me to". I loved the episode of Squidbillies that had David Allan Coe making a cameo.

I don't really care for Squidbillies and I don't live anywhere near San Marcos, so this announcement has no effect on me whatsoever. :lol:
