Kenny Rogers is my mom’s favorite artist. He would always play the Fox Theater in Detroit around Christmas time and typically do multiple shows at that. I think there were about three years in a row where we went to see him, and the shows were always a good time. My mom continued to see him periodically up until his death. When The Big Lebowski came out in 1998, I felt like I was already ahead of the curve.
