That was the thing to do every Saturday night. Music television sure has changed since the day.

Was I the only one watching Lawrence Welk?

No. You were not alone. My grandparents had it playing on their only television. If I was there I was hearing it.

could only get two channels back then....don't remember what was on the other one.

Ana one ana two... (music begins)

Get between my granny and Lawrence Welk and you'd know the true meaning of the word wrath.
"I'll get your good eye- boy--MOVE!"
(not joking--I never knew exactly what that meant, but I didn't want to find out either)

My grandmother watched a lot of professional wresting. She hated Tojo Yamamoto with passion. I thought a few times she was going to go through the screen after him.

Don't forget Hootenanny every Monday night.

Grampa Jones, Minnie Pearl, Junior Samples, Beauregard and the gang weren't bad at all on Thursday some years later on. Blues, Despair and Agony on me.

I'm proud to say I saw Tojo at a County Fair wrestling show. Dick the Bruiser, too. It was funny. They grappled a bit, and then it started to rain. From there, it took about 30 seconds to get 3 falls and the match was over and everyone headed for cover.

...and his Champaign Music Makers. I watched a lot of Lawrence Welk. He was the counterweight to "Street Fightin Man".

I don't think she ever saw a live show. As best I remember the wrestling she watched on TV was out of Memphis. I guess those guys traveled all over.
