| I was playing a club gig in the late 80's. We always had a good crowd. The more they drank the more we did too! One night we were pickin' away and a 6'or more guy walked in that was (to me) the spittin' image of the big "E". My initial thought was: what the F*%@ is Emmons doing in this joint? The guy's name was Tom. He was the younger brother of a regular of the place. As we got to know one another, he appreciated the resemblence. Never could talk him into wearing a derby though. |

| Might work, but I can't imagine him getting his hands anywhere near correct for the sync on Buddy's music tracks... not that THAT ever stopped Hollywood before. Close up shots of a real player and long shots of the actor acting up. He'd wear the derby, no question [This message was edited by David L. Donald on 16 March 2003 at 12:24 AM.] |

I always thought Buddy could play Richard Petty or vice versa.

I met a guy in Goshen, Indiana in '88 when we played a fair there. He was one of the stage hands provided by the venue. When he smiled he looked like a young Buddy twin. I told him he looked just like a friend of mine. He asked what his name was. When I told him and he said that he was related to some folks with that name. He sure looked like Buddy. (I don't think he was an actor though...  )

Actually if Buddy had his choice for someone taking his role in a movie.I think he would prefer Brad Pitt or George Clooney. Let's face it there is no-one that can duplicate his playing so why expect anyone to be able to play him.
