I was good friends with The Original Texas Playboys and Smokie Dacus told me personally he was the first drummer @ the Grand Ole Opry. They had told Bob last minute no drums were allowed. Bob told them it was ALL The Texas Playboys or none! They had no choice but to let them perform. But they kept Smokie hidden behind the curtain. It made Bob so mad he refused to return.
