  • Happy Thanksgiving!
    Now it's time for something completely different! Tyler Evans has been a big part of livefastdiepoor.com from the beginning, mostly behind the camera. Now we made him jump in front of it to kick off his own series, "Tyler Evans Rock Journalist" - His channel is at: / tylerrockjournalist
    So as a special treat, we get to share Tyler's first couple videos on this channel.
    From Tyler,
    "In the beautiful farming community of Dyess, Arkansas, we were given the rare opportunity to take a tour through the boyhood home of Johnny Cash. The folks from Arkansas State University took us on a guided walkthrough, giving us intimate access to things that won't be accessible to the public when the home becomes a museum in 2014. The house, which Ray Cash moved his family into in 1935, is a relic of rock and roll history. It's where Johnny Cash learned to sing, and its setting served as a muse for some of his most popular songs, like "Five Feet High and Rising," and "Pickin' Time." "
    VERY SPECIAL THANKS to Dr. Ruth Hawkins & her team for letting us intrude on their valuable time and offer the LFDP folks a glimpse inside the restoration process
    The Adventures are now on our NEW CHANNEL: / justinscarred
    NEW MERCH! store.randomland.com (2021 and beyond!)

    Wow! Grew up listening to the man in Black. A time before and during the British Invasion. I even remembered this home before the restoration. Definitely good times and super American music.

      Hello well thanks for the 2 or before I got restored a Rebuilder how were they I'm glad they restored it so people can't order it know how Johnny Cash grew up and know where he grew up at most singers grew up poor some of them forget their humble beginning some of them don't and I believe Johnny Cash was one of them that was humble and kind and never forgot where he started from of before he started his singing but he was a great singer so was his wife well I hope and pray everyone is staying safe and healthy take care and God bless
