Billy's Blues

Singer/songwriter Billy Sedlmayr has spent half his life battling the law and his own dope demons

A A A Comments By Brian Smith Thursday, Nov 12 1998

...continued from page 4

"All of the stuff [writings] I have now is remnants that I rewrote from my mind."

Sedlmayr started work on his novel in February, and it is a poetic dichotomy of two different men and their momentum fueled by drugs, booze, rage and need. He got out of prison in July and is planning on remaining in Phoenix to finish his novel, put a band together and hopefully get a record deal. It sounds like cause for optimism, but Sedlmayr's been down this road before. He can only hope that it doesn't lead him down the same old path.

Billy Sedlmayr is scheduled to perform on Monday, November 16, at Long Wong's in Tempe. Showtime is 9:30 p.m.
