Gibbons began playing a regular year-end "Jungle Show" at Antone's a few years ago. “We’re definitely still doing it, the timeline is just uncertain due to COVID,” Bridges said. Initial plans were for the “micro-museum,” as Bridges called it, to open in the club’s upstairs event space last summer, before the coronavirus pandemic intervened. It turns out that museum is an in-process project of the Clifford Antone Foundation, a nonprofit associated with the venue “dedicated to preserving our music culture and community by caring for our elders and investing in our youth,” per its website. We checked in with Will Bridges, co-owner of the legendary Antone’s nightclub in downtown Austin. Here’s where Austin viewers might be wondering: Wait, there’s an Antone’s blues museum? “If we could make a deal, the Antone’s blues museum down in Austin, Texas, would graciously accept this for one of their displays.” “Well, I don’t want to see it walk out the door,” he replies.
Legendary country-rocker Gram Parsons became well-known for wearing them in the 1960s (including on the cover of the Flying Burrito Brothers’ album “The Gilded Palace of Sin”).Īfter some discussion about what the suit could be worth - Gibbons suggests perhaps twice the $25,000 its current owner had suspected - Harrison asks Gibbons if he wants to buy the suit back. When Elvis Presley wore a Cohn-designed gold-lamé suit on a 1959 album cover, Cohn’s fashions began to attract rock musicians as well. Their flamboyantly embroidered suits quickly became hot commodities among country music stars including Roy Rogers, Porter Wagoner and Hank Williams. Born Nuta Kotlyarenko in the Ukraine in 1902, Cohn immigrated to America as a child and opened Nudie’s Rodeo Tailors in Los Angeles with his wife, Bobbie Kruger, in the 1940s. "Pawn Stars" host Rick Harrison quickly appeared at the counter to check out the suit, which he immediately recognized as the work of Nudie Cohn. “My dad told me it was ZZ Top’s,” added the woman, identified simply as Dani on the program. As the years went by, some of the cards would generate some lofty prices either online or at a pawn shop.
Along with the video games, Pokemon also released a deck of cards that allowed players to battle and trade against one another. “My dad’s had it laying around the house forever,” says a woman who brought a rhinestone-studded orange suit into the program’s Las Vegas pawn shop for a segment that premiered on Jan. During an episode of Pawn Stars, a man named Gary showed up to the shop with a suitcase full of Pokemon cards.
