“My first job was in a Bohemian polka band, the Rejcek family polka band in Abbott. The old man in the band had another blacksmith shop in Abbott, but he liked me. All he had was horns and drums, and I was set up over there with my little guitar with no amps or nothing. I would play as loud as I wanted to, and nobody could hear me.” MenFirstsLittlesPlayWantedJobsBandGuitarLoudShopsOld ManHornsBohemianPolkaBlacksmiths Author:Willie Nelson
