Dancing Outlaw to take stage at the V Club
By DEREK HALSEY
For The Herald-Dispatch
Jesco White, known as West
Virginia’s Dancing Outlaw, is
scheduled to take the stage at the
V Club today, Oct. 16.
His appearance comes just
days before the DVD release of
the movie, “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia.”
The film is a documentary about
Jesco and the rest of his family
who have achieved both positive
and negative notoriety in the
coal country of Boone County,
W.Va.
“The Wild and Wonderful
Whites of West Virginia” was
executive produced by Johnny
Knoxville of “Jackass” fame. The
film was made by director Julien
Nitzberg who spent more than a
year in Boone County with Jesco
and his extended family. Nitzberg, a former New York City
punk rocker, eventually landed
a job in Whitesburg, Ky., at the
famed Appalshop Arts and Edu-
cation Center as a filmmaker.
While making a documentary
about West Virginia rockabilly
legend Hasil Adkins, Nitzberg
met Jesco’s sister Mamie which
led to meeting the rest of the
kinfolk.
At the heart of Jesco’s fame is
his talent at what is called mountain tap dancing. He learned this
unique hybrid of dance from his
late father, D. Ray White. But
through appearances in previous
documentaries, videos, articles
and now this new movie, Jesco
and his clan are also known for
their law breaking, hell raising,
pill popping rowdy behavior,
much to the chagrin of some
West Virginians who worry
about their state being stereotyped.
“I worked at Appalshop so I’m
really aware of that,” said Nitzberg. “We’ve got two or three
different people in the movie who

ocal bluegrass favorite Melvin Goins
and his band Windy
Mountain return to
the Mountaineer
Opry House today,
Oct. 16.
The concert marks
a little over a year since Goins
was inducted into the International Bluegrass Association
Hall of Fame as a member of
the Lonesome Pine Fiddlers.
The Mountaineer Opry
House is located 10 minutes
east of Huntington off of the
Milton exit on Interstate 64.
Tonight’s show starts at 7:30
p.m. The doors open at 5 p.m.
Tickets are $15 for adults, $12
for seniors and $5 for children.
More information can be found
at www.mountaineeropry.com
or by calling 304-743-5749.
With more than a half century in the entertainment business, Goins has seen a lot of
music history in the Tri-State.
The West Virginia native and
Catlettsburg, Ky., resident
remembers his time with the
Lonesome Pine Fiddlers as
his big break in the bluegrass
world.
“I grew up in a little town
called Bramwell, West Virginia, about eight or 10 miles out of
Bluefield,” said Goins. “I grew
up in the coal fields of Bluefield. I left home in November
of 1953 and that’s when I came
to Kentucky and went to work
in Pikeville on WLSI with the
Lonesome Pine Fiddlers, me
and my brother (Ray). That
was my first trip to Kentucky.
I got homesick and wanted to
go home but didn’t have any
money to get back. We went to
work and had a live daily radio
show there every day from
11:30 to 12 noon, and we did it
TICKET: Lillianne D. Bowersock has a ticket to ride

her youngest son, Tyler
Davis Massey, and his wife
(her homeland) live with her
granddaughters, Lily Grace,
13, and Isabella “Bella”, 10,
whom she hasn’t seen for four
years. Lil’s other daughter-inlaw, Angela, wife of her son,
TR, and mother to her grandson, Tim Robert “Tripp”
Massey III, of Worthington,
Ohio, bought Lil’s round-trip
ticket to England as a retirement gift. Lil is expected
back home Nov. 1. Enjoy that
well-deserved grandmother
time, Lil.

live. We were sponsored by
Home Furniture and Modern

After a long stint with the
Lonesome Pine Fiddlers, Goins
joined the legendary Stanley
Brothers in the mid-1960s.
“Some of the first shows we
played when I went to work
with (The Stanley Brothers)
in January of 1966 were early
morning shows and matinees

four of us.”
Dr. Ralph Stanley is still
going strong. But the leader of
the Stanley Brothers was his
brother Carter who played guitar, sang lead vocals and wrote
many bluegrass standards, all
of which made him a legend in
his own right. Carter Stanley
died of alcoholism in December
of 1966 at the age of 41 about 11
months after Goins joined the
group. Goins remembers his
time spent with the legend.
“He was a well-spoken man,”
said Goins, of Carter Stanley.
“When he talked to you, he was
real easy to talk with. If he was
talking about something he felt
good about, he just laid it out
and didn’t hold anything back.
He was just straightforward.
He was not laid back. He was
out with it. Plain and simple.
Just a mountain man. He was
a great guy. His singing and
emcee work, he was great at
that. He really knew how to
handle people. He could go on
a stage and he could make you
laugh or he could make you cry.
He had a tone in his voice with
his talking and his singing and
he could just about hypnotize a
crowd of people. He was a good
boss, but he was a hard driver. I
mean, there wasn’t no playing
around. I’ve seen him cut up
and joke with you just as funny
as anybody in the world, and
then on some days he wouldn’t
speak five words to you. That
was just his turn, that was his
way and everybody knew it.”
Goins also befriended Molly O’Day, the West Virginia
Music Hall of Famer who lived
in Huntington for many years
where she broadcast a gospel
radio show.
“I went to Molly O’Day’s
house, me and my wife Willa
did, when they were broadcasting every day out of their
home in Huntington,” said
Goins. “We went there and
sat in on their show one day.
Lynn Davis and Molly O’Day
broadcast every day from their
house. They had that all gospel radio show. My wife had
a group called the Woodettes
and Lynn and Molly played
a lot of their records. They
got a lot of requests for the
Woodettes back then, so we
would take albums up there
and they would play them, and
we would sit there and talk and
they would interview us on the
radio as a guest.”

say, ‘The Whites do not represent
West Virginia.’ The Whites are the
Whites. That is said very clearly at
the beginning of the movie. I’ve
toured with this movie to lots of
film festivals and everywhere I
go, no one watches the movie and
says, ‘That’s West Virginia.’ Occasionally you get some moron who
says something. But we showed it
at this festival in New Jersey and
there were Catholic nuns there
because it was inside a church
center. I was totally freaked out,
but they said, ‘Listen, we’ve got
the same kind of outlaws in New
Jersey and they are everywhere.
It’s not a West Virginia thing.’
They liked the movie and said,
‘We deal with a lot of people with
drug addiction problems and we’re
used to this.’”

Boys with their funny looks are a persistent fact of life
DEAR ABBY: I’m a 12-year-old
girl with a big problem. My class
recently learned about reproduction. All of the girls accepted
it in a mature manner, but it’s
another story with the boys.
Now all the boys look at me
funny when I walk through the
hall. It makes me feel awkward.
Should I ignore them or should
I say something? — EMBARRASSED IN MICHIGAN
DEAR EMBARRASSED: Right
now, I suspect most of your
classmates are feeling awkward. A frank discussion about
reproduction has been known
to make students older than you
uncomfortable. It is, however,
a part of life — and contrary
to what some may think, ignorance isn’t bliss.
Acting the way the boys are
is normal for their age. But if
it continues, rather than saying anything to them — which
might encourage more of the
same — talk to a teacher about it.
DEAR ABBY: Shortly before I
started college, a relative introduced me to “Paul,” who would
be attending the same school,
and told us we were distant

DEAR ABBY
cousins. Paul and I became
friends. We socialized together
often and all our friends knew
us as cousins.
It wasn’t until after graduation that our parents told us
that while we have a relative in
common, it is by marriage, and
we are not related to each other.
Paul and I have a lot in common, and he has expressed an
interest in pursuing a relationship with me.
Paul is a great guy, but I’m
reluctant to date him because
all our friends think we’re related. It almost feels like we are
doing something wrong. Can
you please share your opinion
on this situation? — IT’S ALL
RELATIVE

is nothing to stop you and
Paul from becoming romanti-

CHUCKLE: A little boy went
to dine with his parents at the
home of an elderly gentleman.
After watching the old man
bow his head and speak in a
soft voice, the boy asked his
mother, “What did Mr. Bryan
say to his plate?”
friend of the Whites, is featured in
the movie playing music while Jesco dances. Williams, who recently
appeared at the V Club in Huntington, sees the positive side of the
Whites and talks about his camaraderie with Jesco and crew and their
notoriety over the years.
“It doesn’t matter what kind of
business you’re in, some people
are going to take advantage of
you and some people aren’t, and
that happens to everybody out
there,” said Williams. “As far
as my feelings for Jesco and the
whole family, I’ve always made
it really clear that it is more of a
friendship and a love. I’ve always
tried to keep the business out of it
as much as possible. I’ve always
been there because of heartfelt
reasons. I’ve met a lot of folks
from down around there and
they are a very strong breed,
that’s for sure.”
As for the White’s tradition
of mountain tap dancing, at
the present time there are no
younger members of the family
who desire to carry the legacy
forward.
“One of Jesco’s nephews up in
Minnesota, we thought he was
going to do it,” said Nitzberg.
“He actually bought tap shoes
and we filmed him and stuff, but
he never kept it up. It’s a really
sad thing. No one in the family is keeping the tradition. It’s
going to die with Jesco. We kept
hoping that someone in the next
generation would discover it. But,
it’s like everything else. He’s got
this niece that is a good dancer,
but she’s into Beyonce’. He’s got
another nephew who plays music
and is really good named Derkie
and he’s into Hendrix and Pink
Floyd and Tupac.
“Jesco is the last one because
he loves the old timey music, and
Mamie loves the old timey music.
The younger generation does
not respond. One time I was in a
vehicle with Mamie and a couple
of the younger ones and I had
some Bob Wills music on and all
of the younger generation was
like, ‘What is this (stuff). Turn
it off.’ Only Mamie and I were
enjoying the Bob Wills music.
You can’t force people to like
something. To me, it is kind of
this part of America where everyone is being standardized into the
same clothes, the same culture,
the same malls and they’re even
losing their accents.”
The V Club is located at 741
6th Ave., Huntington. The Jesco
White Highway To Hellbilly
Tour show featuring Pickup The
Snakes is for ages 18 and over and
begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $13.

cally involved if you’re both
leaning in that direction. The
way to deal with it would be
to tell your friends, before you
start being seen together, how
“amusing” it is that you were
led to believe the two of you
were related, when it turns out
that you AREN’T. It was all a
big mistake. (Ha-ha.)
That should quell most of the
gossip you’re concerned about.
And if you’re asked directly,
repeat what you told me.
DEAR ABBY: I have been
involved with a man, “Seth,”
for more than two years. We
share mutual interests and he
makes me laugh. For the most
part we’re happy, but I have one
concern. I have yet to receive
flowers from Seth, although he
has mentioned many times that
he had sent them to his ex while
they were together.
Is it wrong for me to expect
flowers, or should I just forget
the idea and leave it alone?
— WAITING FOR ROSES IN
HOUSTON
DEAR WAITING: Not knowing Seth, I can’t say whether his
unwillingness to send you flowers is because after what happened with his ex he considers
them a bad investment or whether he’s just cheap. But because the
absence of flowers is bothering
you, ask HIM about the omission.
