Do what now? <br /><br />Hasil Adkins <br /><br />29apr1937—26apr2005 <br />R.I.P. <br />So is it pronounced hassle or hazel? <br /><br />Hassle. <br /><br />Oh, I thought it was Hazel, 'cos you're The Haze. <br /><br />I know, everybody... nah, it's "hassel," what it is. Everybody call me—well, not everybody—most of 'em call me "Hazel," but I mean, you know, after they get to know me or seen me or somethin, why, you know, [I] tell 'em.... <br /><br />Ah. Cos you've got a brother named Basil—or is it "bassle"? <br /><br />Do what now? <br /><br />Your brother's named Basil or Bazel? <br /><br />Uh, well, they call him both things, Basil & Bazel, but his real name's Basil. But they call him Bazel. <br /><br />Okay. Now I also read somewhere that you had lectured at a college—where was that? <br /><br />Do what now? <br /><br />That you had given a lecture at a college. <br /><br />Yeah, uh, in Louisville, Kentucky. <br /><br />How did that come about? <br /><br />That's when we was makin this video stuff. They went all over the place makin it. And they was wantin to know, at the college, how I got started playin and how do I do everything—you know, all that. <br /><br />Was that a lot of fun? <br /><br />Oh yeah, yeah. Kids wanna know everything, they did. <br /><br />Do you still play live much? <br /><br />Yeah. Well, I been workin here at home for a while now, I got a lot of [ ] stuff to do & everything. I could be workin 'bout eight nights, if I wanted to, but it gets old, you know, like that. I'm gonna play Charleston, I guess, Saturday night. Could be Friday Night. Friday or Saturday night, one of the two. <br /><br />Wow, I wish I was out there! I'd like to see you play. So you going to be touring around any more, you think? <br /><br />Oh yeah, yeah.
