Willie Nelson and Family performance last night was 'over the top'. The man is 86 and performs with a energy of a young rockers. Last time I'd seen him was on the 'IRS Tour' when he owed $10M in back taxes. Band included his sister, keyboard player Bobbie Nelson and rock-solid harmonica play Mickey Raphael and drummer Paul English. Setlist here -

What an enormous void Willie Nelson will leave
when he finally passes to his reward.

Gee, I didn't know that Willie does "It's Hard to Be Humble." My coworker Charlie sang that song to me almost daily for 15 years, and I always enjoyed it. Here's Willie:

Willie did a lot of call and response during his set including the Hank Williams tunes, Hard to be Humble and Gospel tunes (Circle Be Unbroken, I'll Fly Away). Really was a concert of a lifetime for me.
