Mr. Rose Colored Glasses himself, John Conlee, is coming to Main Street Crossing in Tomball. mainstreetxing Johnconlee31
It’s the morning after yet another horrific school shooting in America—this time in Nashville that took the lives of three children and three faculty members. Longtime resident of the area John Conlee is not obsessively watching the TV on purpose, but he is viewing things through the lens of his strong religious faith.“It’s obvious that we have a serious, serious problem. And I maintain that the main problem we have as a culture and a world is aproblem.
“We try to figure out why people do things and it’s obvious that the person who did this had a mental illness. All the stations here are covering it 24/7, but I tune it out. I want to wait down the road when they get more information about the manifesto they found to see how mentally ill she was. But I don’t stay glued to the TV. It just wears you out.”
“I have cousins whose last name was Wayne. Roy Wayne was a career Navy man stationed at Pearl Harbor when it was hit, and he took some of the first photographs of the [destruction],” Conlee says. “So, I’m named for him!” But if there’s a tune that rivals “Rose Colored Glasses” as his best known, it’s “Common Man.” In it, Conlee’s narrator feels a bit out of place with his higher-browed girlfriend at a fancy restaurant, instead mentioning a preference for McDonald’s, his much-driven Chevy van, non-pedigreed dog, and Budweiser beer. To many listeners, the working man tune hits on a deeper emotional level.
Since Conlee will be in the Houston/Tomball area for several days, he’s got more time to explore than a usual gig. “We normally go to a town, do the show, and then go to the next show or home. This will give us a chance to roam around a bit! I may go to a Western wear store and pick up a couple of shirts,” he says. “In the old days, I’d go to a gun show. There used to be a lot of those in Texas. I don’t know how it is now.
