Willie Nelson was always on my mind, but never high on my list of artists to see, not matter how high him or I have been in the past.  But I recently realized that he’s 83 years old, and although I can envision him on the road again and again until he’s 803, I don’t think he (or I) will make it that far, and so of course I had to see him before he enviably goes up yonder.  Plus, you never know – if you happen to catch his last show ever, you get to roll him up and smoke his dead body!  Sick, yes, but I didn’t write those lyrics – he did, and I bet in his will, he really wants his ashes smoked!

Anywho, the dude certainly looks like an 83-year-old dude (although he has forever looked like a dude in his 70s, even during in the 1980s!), but he still plays the guitar like he was a 53-year-old, and he STILL sounds like he did when he was 32!!!!  INCREDIBLE!!!!

This man is a national treasure, a country music spelunker doling out troves of down home Americana, decade after decade.  Do your civic and patriotic duty, see him in concert, and roll one up and smoke your own, before he dies
