Thanks to Deb for sending this too me – another video from when I played with Freddy Fender (I’m the keyboardist on the right). Before The Next Teardrop Falls is often unwittingly called “Before The LAST Teardrop Falls” and Freddy Fender is often spelled as “Freddie Fender”, as they are in this video title. My best guess is this video is from Laughlin, Nevada sometime between 2003-2004, probably 2004.
I absolutely loved playing this song with Freddy. The crowd would get so nostalgic and everyone hugging their loved ones, it was always a great moment in the show.
Here are some of the comments people had posted about this video of Freddy Fender performance:
