I loved Hee Haw. Sunday night staple when I was growing up. And I love the video posted. Just Roy Rogers playing guitar in the middle of a sitcom for no particular reason

Oh ffs. I had a minor stroke, it seems. It's what I get for typing out a post while sending out an email to Haley Rogers here at work.

I mean, for what it’s worth, Roy Rogers IS still dead.

Funny man, great banjo man, wish I could have seen him live. Sadly, I only saw one member of the Hee-Haw cast live, and he wasn't it.

Amazing guitarist. RIP. I hope the Heaven has a Hell of a band thing is true.

I actually started watching some of his YouTube videos last month.

They're waiting until two blokes from Liverpool finally have their numbers called. THEN it'll be a band (again).
