"Crazy Eddie" is dead now so I guess it's okay to tell his story...
C.E. had this thing about dynamite... No one knew where he got it but...
...he got it...
This was back in the holler in Wes Ginny... C.E. had these Vietnam flashbacks and also had lots of dynamite... Mostly 1/4 sticks but also way more than enough of big sticks...
I think it was around '89 or '90 and C.E. was havin' a serious series of bad Nam-flashbacks and for days upon end the sound of dynamite echoed thru the holler 24/7 for several days...
People called the Wes Ginny Sate Police about going in and stopping the explosions... Their answer: "Hey, he ain't killed anyone and we don't want to be the first"...
Played a gig about 10 years later and Crazy Eddie was there... Very lucid and a nice guy???
