Bob Livingston Quotes

«So I got my Cowboy stuff on... I'm doing this stuff all over India. I went to Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Burma. This last year we went to the Middle East. Me and my son went to Yemen, Syria, Kuwait, Jordan, Oman... Good Will for America!»

«We didn't know about the rest of the world. We just knew the pictures that we saw on TV, and it was so different that we wanted to try to imitate that, to a certain extent.»
«The Vietnam War was happening, but Lubbock was... They put a pinch on it.»
«Fess Parker, when he played Davey Crockett, he had long hair. In Lubbock, everybody had to have a flat-top or you would get beat up. So here was The Beatles looking like Davey Crockett! It was like a combination of Davey Crockett and music!»
«I had never, ever drunk beer in high school, and by the time I got to Tech we were having these parties out in the cotton fields and getting so drunk. I was the champion beer drinker; suddenly I was pouring it down my throat... Insane! Insane!»
