Can someone link me to Mr. Nelson's original, long, post or diary entry, about his time at The Band's "Last Waltz" concert?
I've searched the old and new forums and gone through his diary entries in the Archive, which suggest the original posting predates 2005.
Thanks
Yes, he has other bits of memory from the day mentioned in other forum posts: like sharing the elevator with Joni.
It would be an enormous amount of work, but I've thought it would be nice to have BN's posts on major topics (like the "Last Waltz", other artists, his own albums, etc....) brought together in one 'area'. But, I suppose, the Forum search functions mostly do that. The Diaries are not searchable though....
Think there must be more than one as it doesn't mention Bill borrowing a guitar from Ronnie Wood and being stopped from getting on stage by Bill Graham.
THATS THE ONE, Thank you!
Too bad those very old Diary entries are not archived at billnelson.com!
Here yer go. From Diary of a Hyperdreamer vol.1 - p.33 - dated 15th Dec. 1999. Took some finding.

I have done that (postings by BN with "waltz" or "Miyako", the hotel, or "Robertson") and looked at all the results, none of which include (what I recall to have been) a very extensive reminiscense of the event.
Thanks
If you go to the old forum and push the search button and enter the term :waltz
it will bring up pages of results with many different threads where Bill speaks of his
Last Waltz experience.
