Although The Mix's owner was an attorney, it didn't take him long to accumulate music-industry bragging rights that had little to do with his law background. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonio SanAntonioMusic TexasMusic
His high-profile claims to fame included touring the world as Austin-based blues guitarist Gary Clark Jr.'s road manager and helping the critically acclaimed artist land a deal with Warner Records. Tucker also served as a partner in legendary country music venue Floore's Country Store and helped organize San Antonio's Maverick Music Festival during its five-year run.
"I'd say he walked pretty softly and carried a big stick," said Jeff Smith, owner of San Antonio's Saustex Records and a longtime music promoter."I don't think any of that Save Our Stages stuff would have passed without his lobbying efforts." Over the years, Tucker made efforts to mediate between residents of the gentrifying neighborhood around the Strip and its bar owners. He both founded the St. Mary's Business Owners Association and served as a president of the Tobin Hill Neighborhood Association — organizations frequently at odds.
"If the public doesn't wake up pretty quickly, they're essentially going to find themselves ostracized from the entertainment district they've enjoyed for 40 years," Tucker said.
