Cash Museum on 3rd. We saw pieces of his life, his work and his home with private pictures of him and June Carter. Johnny’s music wasn’t the only music honored at the Cash museum; artists who have covered Johnny, the Carter Family and his work with Bob Dylan on Nashville Skyline were on display and there were even props and costumes from the Walk the Line biopic from 2005. It’s been reported that when John- ny Cash did his video for his cover of “Hurt” his daughter said to him “It sounds like you’re saying good- bye” to which Johnny replied “I am.” Dad and I watched the song on a small screen next to Johnny’s chair used in the video. My fa- ther loved hearing the covers of Johnny’s songs and the interactive exhibit where you can remix one of four Johnny Cash songs to your liking. As we left he said “I never knew he had so many songs” which is my dad’s way of saying he didn’t know the scope of Johnny Cash’s impact. Then we walked over to 4th and Nobody covers the arts throughout the Garden State like NJ Stage!
