I was living in Raleigh, NC and dating a young Vietnamese chick from Austin, TX. She was a big SRV fan too. We used to fly down to Austin a lot back then and hang out on 6th Street and she'd take me to a lot of the local music bars. That was a fun time for me back then.

I think SRV had just had his 16th birthday when I saw him in Lawton, OK. I guess he got a pass on his age because he was the entertainment! 

Sounds like a ton of fun with a VN chick, hitting the live music scene in Austin. Oh, man!
