Lucky Tubb's life story has all the mak-VDLZ 5VCC T MJGF TUPSZ IBT BMM UIF NBL ings of a good old-fashioned country song.

JOHT PG B HPPE PME GBTIJPOFE DPVOUSZ TPOH Born in Texas and raised by his great#PSO JO 5FYBT BOE SBJTFE CZ IJT HSFBU grandparents in Arizona, he got busted HSBOEQBSFOUT JO "SJ[POB IF HPU CVTUFE with 52 pounds of marijuana when he was XJUI QPVOET PG NBSJKVBOB XIFO IF XBT 17 and served five years in prison. In jail, BOE TFSWFE mWF ZFBST JO QSJTPO *O KBJM a kindly older prisoner taught him to play B LJOEMZ PMEFS QSJTPOFS UBVHIU IJN UP QMBZ guitar.

HVJUBS When he got of prison, all he wanted to 8IFO IF HPU PG QSJTPO BMM IF XBOUFE UP do was play music.

EP XBT QMBZ NVTJD "I wanted to play the blues, but I couldn't i* XBOUFE UP QMBZ UIF CMVFT CVU * DPVMEO U get a gig," said Tubb, 39. "Someone told HFU B HJH w TBJE 5VCC i4PNFPOF UPME me I should play country music, and I NF * TIPVME QMBZ DPVOUSZ NVTJD BOE * said, 'I hate country music.' " TBJE A* IBUF DPVOUSZ NVTJD w Tubb saying he hates country music is 5VCC TBZJOH IF IBUFT DPVOUSZ NVTJD JT sort of like Babe Ruth's offspring loathing TPSU PG MJLF #BCF 3VUI T PGGTQSJOH MPBUIJOH baseball. You see, he's the great-nephew CBTFCBMM :PV TFF IF T UIF HSFBU OFQIFX of country music legend Ernest Tubb, who PG DPVOUSZ NVTJD MFHFOE &SOFTU 5VCC XIP became a sensation in the 1940s with his CFDBNF B TFOTBUJPO JO UIF T XJUI IJT deep baritone and honky-tonk sound, and EFFQ CBSJUPOF BOE IPOLZ UPOL TPVOE BOE remained a mainstay of the country scene SFNBJOFE B NBJOTUBZ PG UIF DPVOUSZ TDFOF until his death in 1984. Tubb had other less VOUJM IJT EFBUI JO 5VCC IBE PUIFS MFTT famous musicians in his family, too. So he GBNPVT NVTJDJBOT JO IJT GBNJMZ UPP 4P IF liked some country music - his uncle's, MJLFE TPNF DPVOUSZ NVTJD o IJT VODMF T and the tunes of Hank Williams.

BOE UIF UVOFT PG )BOL 8JMMJBNT But contemporary country held no allure #VU DPOUFNQPSBSZ DPVOUSZ IFME OP BMMVSF for him.

GPS IJN So, while trying to get blues gigs in 4P XIJMF USZJOH UP HFU CMVFT HJHT JO Austin, Texas, other musicians began to "VTUJO 5FYBT PUIFS NVTJDJBOT CFHBO UP suggest that his voice and style would be TVHHFTU UIBU IJT WPJDF BOE TUZMF XPVME CF perfect for old-style honky-tonk.

NBSSJBHF "Halpern & Johnson," a drama that i)BMQFSO +PIOTPO w B ESBNB UIBU opens this week at Portland Stage PQFOT UIJT XFFL BU 1PSUMBOE 4UBHF Company, explores the idea of emo$PNQBOZ FYQMPSFT UIF JEFB PG FNP tional infidelity.

UIF LOPXMFEHF PS DPOTFOU PG B TQPVTF "Halpern & Johnson," written by playwright i)BMQFSO +PIOTPO w XSJUUFO CZ QMBZXSJHIU Lionel Goldstein, tells the story of two strangers, -JPOFM (PMETUFJO UFMMT UIF TUPSZ PG UXP TUSBOHFST Joseph Halpern and Dennis Johnson.

As the men talk, Halpern learns that John"T UIF NFO UBML )BMQFSO MFBSOT UIBU +PIO son had a relationship with his wife before he TPO IBE B SFMBUJPOTIJQ XJUI IJT XJGF CFGPSF IF married her.
