Rusty is alive and kicking in Austin. Tuesdays and Wednesday he is usually at Gino's Italian Grill. Thursdays Rusty can be found at the Saxon Pub (as well as an occasional Friday or Saturday night). Rusty also gets to Dallas to perform at Poor David's once in awhile. "Are We There Yet?" (co-produced with Larry Nye) features Rusty's son, Coby on guitar. Coby is a great player and has brought a new college age crowd to Rusty's shows. "My Side Of The Story" was co-written with another son, Bon Wier. As far as I know Bon was Rusty's drummer for a while (but after getting married left for a 'day job'). Jerry Jeff Waker, Steven Fromholz, Ray (Wylie Hubbard) and Larry Joe Taylor provide some of the vocals on another great tune, "Hot Spot" (co written with M. Ballew, B. Moulds and Rusty). That's all I know...... Kat
Just outta curiosity. Back awhile (like the 70's-early 80's) I snagged a few pieces of vinyl from Austin based singer/songwriter Rusty Wier and loved them. Was listening to one the other day and wondering what ever became of Mr. Wier and what might he be doing now. I haven't seen anything by him in years. Iceman
