L.G. is another Willie Nelson & Family crew member who makes the shows happen, so us fans can go and have the time of our lives. After the concerts, everyone has their eye on Willie, me too, but right behind him is this guy, making sure Willie stays safely on the stage. Too many over-excited fans have tried to pull Willie down to them, or crawl up on stage with him, and LG is the guy making sure that doesn’t happen. Sometimes tour manager John Selman does that job, and Poodie Locke did that important job for decades. More than once, I saw Poodie lift a young girl off her feet, after she crawled on stage to get to Willie. Sometimes they were the same girls Poodie had been encouraging to flash Willie, too; I know Poodie confused them.
