The legendary Dr. John was a master at turning a phrase and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductee and six-time Grammy award winner had one in particular that fans took to heart:
Ya never too hot
never too cold
never too young
never too old
never too skinny
never too fat
never too dis
never too dat
ya just were ya are
& dat’s where it’s at
The Dr. John Estate has released a Dat’s Where It’s At tee shirt commemorating his lyrical words, along with The Good Doctor’s photograph in his gris-gris beads and hat.
To celebrate the spirit of The Night Tripper, American Blues Scene is giving away an exclusive Dr. John t-shirt straight from the official estate!
To enter:
- Head to our Facebook page (Make sure you’re following us so you don’t miss out on the winner announcement!)
- Drop your favorite Dr. John saying in the comments of the giveaway post (He had plenty to choose from!)
Every comment counts as an entry, and we’ll do a random drawing for the T-shirt! The winner will be announced Monday, so stay tuned!
Executrix of his estate/Mac Rebennack’s daughter Karla Pratt tells us:
I hope this Dat’s Where It’s At tee brings encouragement to everyone who could use some.
Dad had his own spin on language, from ‘Right Place, Wrong Time’ to ‘Such a Night’ — and now ‘Dat’s Where It’s At!’
The Estate adds this tee to its line of Dr. John commemorative gear including mugs, tees, totes, and vintage hotel key chains with his name in signature purple, and Right Place Wrong Time tees in silver glitter on black, with more to come.
