Just wanted to share that I went to see Willie Nelson in Boston the other night. Incredible gig with an American icon giving 120%. What really blew me away, however, was Paul English, Willie's drummer of over 50 years. The guy comes in and sits down with a single snare and completely rocks the house. Unbelievable!

Every time I try for Willie tickets they are sold out in my area... he's a native Texan though, so his tickets go fast here. Hopefully one day before he is done ill get to see him!

I've seen the iconic Mr. Nelson a couple of times and enjoyed him immensely! He's one-of-a-kind for sure!
The last time I saw him was near Buffalo on a revolving stage. Half-way through a set, the power went off. Willie's band looked a bit ****ed and decided to have a cigarette break right there and then, Not Willie! He smiled, told the audience he would continue to play without power and would try to sing a bit louder. You could have heard a pin drop. Mr. Nelson did about three songs by himself and when the power came back on, he received a standing ovation! The gentleman was 100% class and cool!!!
