It's a long road to Willie
5 January 2024
I'm a big fan of Willie Nelson. I've been listening/buying his music for decades. I probably own fifty of his albums. I've read most of his books. I've also seen him live at least ten times. In fact, I'm probably the only guy on Long Island (NY) who drives around with a "Willie Nelson for President" bumper sticker. I'd put my Willie fan loyalty up against anyone's. So don't get down on me for not liking "Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90" so much. It was a heartfelt show, no doubt about it. But it was one version of Willie that meant more to the performer than it did to me after another. And when they shove out on stage a frail looking Kris Kristofferson, I actually got a little annoyed. I don't think it was fair to Kristofferson or the audience. Now when Willie comes out, the show takes off. But I have to be honest, the only thing that stayed with me about the show was Kris Kristofferson. I wish we both skipped this show.
