Personal account
editThe following testimonal was on the main page for this subject. As a personal account of a given event, it is not encyclopedic and I have removed it from the main page as such. Wikipeida is not a message board for reviews, personal anecdotes or general raving about a particualr subject.
Billy asked me to emcee a show in Lake Charles, La. He headlined over Dolly Parton and Johnny Rodriquez. Billy had a stage presence that was just palpable! The crowds responded to Rub It In, and Sweet Magnolia Blossoms, and it was every way as Elvis' fans reacted. He is a gentleman, kind and even allowed me to interview him in his Hotel room before the show. I was a DJ from the promoting radio station. I shall never forget the electricity of this man, and his obvious joy of being on stage with a crowd that loved every minute of his show! (RGTrumps)

Billy Craddock → Billy "Crash" Craddock – This seems to be a case like "Weird Al" Yankovic where the usage of quotes is almost overwhelmingly preferred. He's listed as Billy "Crash" Craddock
on AllMusic, iTunes Store, Spotify, and almost every source I could possibly find, with almost no usage to the contrary. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:32, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
