Iconic American music legend Willie Nelson set the bar for country music with a music career that dates back since the 1950s.

Born during the great American depression on 29 April 1933 in Abbott, Texas, Willie Hugh Nelson worked some odd jobs and had a short-lived college career at Baylor University until he left it all to pursue a music career. He caught his big break in 1961 when he signed with Liberty Records and by 1962 released his first record “…And Then I Wrote.” By the fall of 1964 Nelson moved to RCA records, released “Country Willie- His Own Songs” and joined the Grand Ole Opry in 1965. While some of his songs charted, Nelson was finding difficulty to fully stay afloat and from his frustration retired from music around 1972.

But that was not the end of Willie Nelson. He moved to Texas and the growing hippie music scene revived his love for singing. Playing songs inspired by all of his influences, he started to gain a following in Texas, eventually signing with Atlantic Records, becoming their very first country artist. By February 1973 he had started recording what was to be one of his most iconic records “Shotgun Willie.” The album didn’t do so well at first, and Nelson released one more album before moving labels again, this time to Columbia Records, a move that allowed him complete creative control. This change was exactly what he needed to “turn around” his music career, starting with the critically acclaimed “Red Headed Stranger” album; additionally it lent to the creation of the outlaw country genre, as it did not fit with the traditional country music standards.

The rest of the 70s he found himself with four albums reaching gold and platinum status, one of which was his first gospel album. And the 80s were just as successful with three Grammy awards for Song of the Year, Best Country Song and Best Male Country Vocal Performance. However in 1990 Nelson ran into some legal trouble with the IRS, allegedly owing over $30,000 in tax money. Luckily things worked out, with his lawyer getting a lowered payment and Nelson using the scenario as inspiration for an album he entitled “The IRS Tapes: Who’ll Buy My Memories?”

Even at the age of 81 Willie Nelson continues to thrive. He continues to put out new music, play for his fans and be active with Farm Aid, an activist movement he helped start to increase the awareness of the importance of family farms.

Live reviews

Before I give this review I want to highlight or point out there is a VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE for Willie in this review.

This concert was the first of a three night stretch at whitewater in new braunfels,tx. And the beginning of Merle and Willie's national tour. My significant other(Jen) and I decided to make this our celebration for our 16th anniversary(of not being married). Haha. I know this is a place for a review of the concert and I will say the concert was unforgettable for sure. There were too many separate events within the event to go into. I can just tell you we had an absolute blast. I saw Willie about 25 yrs with my Mother in Corpus Christi, Tx. I will say he has toned down since then. but haven't we all? I know it seems like everyone who follows Willie or has met Willie has a connection with him and I'm sure they do.

I just feel that my connection is so much more genuine and only Willie will be the only one able to confirm this to be true.

I spent my summers growing up in Helotes,Tx. Where Willie used to play every Sat. Night at John T. Floors. When my mom and dad as high school sweethearts would sneak in to. A dance hall in downtown Helotes. This is when he had short hair and always wore a tie when he preformed. There is still a sign of "Willie Nelson Every Sat. Night" that is hung in front of Floor's entrance. Pretty cool. It gets much better.

From the time I was born to my earliest memory was from Medina lake where I lived the first 6 yrs of my life from 1973 thru 1978-79. Furthermore spent many summers there with family. The significants of this will be revealed when I tell all, my connection to him. I'm sure Willie won't be the one that reads this initially but he for sure would like to hear from me.

I tried to get to him at the concert but he is a rock star and it's tough to close enough to him to get his attention. I know he would have love to hear from me. And to hear the message I was sent to give him. Due to the tight security and the disbelief of who I am of the ones who manned the gates I was not able to catch Willie before he apparently left the scene. I tried everything to just get a message to him. Didn't even need to see him face to face. Just needed a message sent to him. I even offered $500.00 to a gate keeper to just relay a message to him. I was ultimately turned down. I felt I was under some pressure to make this happen and I was unsuccessful. This is one reason why I'm doing it this way. The person that is reading this I hope will have the compassion to make this happen. Getting this message to him.

The message I was sent with and who I am will now be explained.

First to tell you who my Mother is and the message she sent me to relay to him. She told me to tell him that I am the son of the person that not once, not twice but three times told her that "you are the prettiest girl in Texas"!! And for sure looked the part. She was at the ripe ages of 17-20 yrs old a knock out of a girl. Here name is Patricia Cullinane. Now if that doesn't ring a bell or bring back memories the next paragraph will. My mother Patricia Cullinane is the sister-in-law to Linda Stewart(my only Aunt). Now we are getting to the connection that I have with Willie. My Aunt Linda(Stewart) is the daughter of your(willie's) very first promoter, CRASH STEWART. Us kids growing up called him "Papa Crash". We would go to his place on Medina every summer and many yrs after he had passed away and swim and enjoy the lake. My only two first cousins Jeff and Tim and I would and do talk about "Papa Crash's" successes and the exclusive life he led. In our eyes he is a

"Revolutionary". I grew up looking thru a roll-a-dex(that Aunt Linda still has)that was Crash's. It has names, phone numbers, addresses and other personal information of all the, now famous people. Charlie Pride was one of them and of course Willie and many others that Crash promoted. This was something that I would forward to checking out when I would go and stay with Grandma who is another person you(willie) could never forget for she was Crash's wife Barbara. My Aunt Linda's mother. Us cousins have grown up and have the stories of our parent's experiences with willie. He has been an indirect influence on all of us growing up and still does. We are honored to be a relative to the man that saw Willie Nelson's potential when he first started, and had a hand in his success. way back when.

I can't go without mentioning One more name you would remember from those days. That is. Jackie Stewart, My Aunt Linda's sweet sister for which I have a picture of you and her together. Not as a photo opp. but rather casually hanging out. Of course you know of her passing many yrs ago. She was gorgeous.

I was instructed by My Aunt Linda to get a message to you(willie)an update of her Mother Barbara. and Step dad Joe Turner. Joe passed away last month. Barbara is now widowed and is being cared for by Aunt Linda. And that her husband my Uncle Tommy Cullinane( my moms brother)is living with Alzheimer's. She has been awarded the first award from scott and white hospital "Hero of the year" award for taking such good care of Tommy and Barbara.

We are very proud of her. I was instructed to relay all this to you. This is information that we thought you would appreciate us giving you. On top of all this. I've wanted to tell you how much I have admired your success and to see the person my family has so many memories and the fact that Papa Crash or Crash Stewart helped in your success story.

Unfortunately I was not successful getting this to Willie(you)

Maybe songkick or the person that is reading this review for willie will help me get this to him. My name is Scott Taylor and I currently live in the highland lake area. I too would love to finally meet you and show you these pictures And tell you the stories that we have heard and told all my life. I appreciate your time and your attention to this review. My whole family appreciates it. You will always be family to us and a legend In our minds. Thank you Mr. Nelson. We hope to hear from you in Reference to Crash Stewart your first promoter.

My email is: [email protected]

P.s. I will be posting this letter to every possible outlet or link to get to Willie himself. Thanks again for your time.

Most in our group had a great time last night at Willie Nelson and Family, with opener Tennessee Jet. I say “most”, because others were less able to ignore a growing trend: people spending more time documenting their time at a show than actually being in the moment enjoying the show. This is not limited to the occasional snap of a pic, but taking group pictures with their backs to the stage, selecting the perfect shot, posting it to social media and discussing the responses. STOP IT PEOPLE!

Now for the show. Willie was, well, Willie. Yes he’s in his eighties, and no longer possesses the vocal range of his youth, but he has found new ways to express the soul of the words that if anything, allow one to rethink a tune they’ve long since committed to soulless, rote memory. And his guitar playing? Masterful, and still so uniquely his. If Id been led blindfolded into the venue, I would have known at the strum of the first cord who I was hearing. The band, friends and family, complemented him perfectly, neither overstepping nor understating the partnerships.

Some complained the show was short and there was no encore, but I think if they review the setlist, they’ll note there were many tunes; there was just not any meaningless banter and the whole encore routine is kinda tired anyway.

To those signed up to see a show to come. You'll have a great time, if you limit your in-show screen time.

The concert was pure Heaven! Willie was absolutely amazing! He walked right out, picked up Trigger and he did not stop! It was one classic memory after another! His son Micah stood to his right, there was a bass player, a snare drummer and a guy that played the harmonica, together they played flawlessly! The sound was magical ! I was worried the quality of Willie’s music would have been less than standard because of his age....but he left me wanting nothing! When he played Trigger, his fingers floated across the strings and could be described as nothing but pure perfection. I must say that hearing children laugh, waves on the beach and Willie play his guitar are my top three favorite sounds to hear. Last night was a dream come true. I will cherish this memory for the rest of my life. I smiled through the entire concert, and honestly, I am smiling now. Thank you Willie Nelson!

Now, the opening act was a lady named Cassidy Daniels and she was a doll! Her sound is an updated Janis Joplin, and I totally want to hear more from her!

Seeing Willie Nelson was A big check off of my bucket list! Getting to hear Cassidy Daniels for the first time was icing on my cupcake!

Theres no doubt Willie Nelson is a true country legend. I was in awe of him as he took the stage at the age of 79. Thats right 79 years old, quite a feat. He certainly didn't show his age as he entertained the audience for the best part of 2 hours.

The venue was large and had an equally large stage, it was in no way intimate. It was, however a largely a laid back affair, he sang numerous country and blues tracks, many of them I wasn't overly familiar with but Willie and his band performed them flawlessly. The audience largely watched in a silent admiration as he lead the band throughout and sang old tails of loss and sorrow that are cliche of the genre that made him a superstar. There were shouts of approval and cheers as the band kicked things up a couple of gears and started jamming and improvising at various point though out the show. Between tracks he told stories of his childhood in his naive Texas and was comical and charming performer. It was a very bluesy set but of course his greatest hits were all played. Leaving “You Were Always On My Mind” as the grand finale. A wonderful show by one of the greats of country music.

Willie Nelson, an icon on the country music scene is still touring almost 60 years since he first began as an artist. It is a credit to his musicianship and showmanship that he is able to still delight crowds all over the States with his melodic, classic sounds.

Willie has been releasing music solidly and consistenly since his very first album 'And Then I Wrote' in 1962 and with a discography that now stands at 62 albums and 110 singles, it may seem like an impossible feat to choose a setlist. However Nelson's enthusiasm and charm as a musician means the crowd are submissive to anything he plays as to see this icon perform live is a treat in itself.

After all these years though, Nelson knows the likes of 'Rainy Day Blues' and 'Bloody Mary Morning' still get his audience clapping and singing along as his slick band perform renditions of these much loved tracks. A sincere performance of his most international hit 'Always On My Mind' makes the audience realise that despite his age of 81, there is no place Nelson would rather be than onstage entertaining his crowd.

Still rocks it on stage. He walked out as cool as you like, picked up trigger and launched into whiskey river. Did all the favorites including my favorite Angel Flying too close to the ground. Ends up signing photos and pictures and albums for 15 minutes at rue end of the show. A true gent.

Here's his set list

Whiskey river

Still is still moving

Whiskey for my men

Good hearted women

Time just slips away

Night life ain't good life

Me and Paul

You got the money I got the time

Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

Angels flying too close

On the road again

Always on my mind.

Sweet baby's arms

Georgia on my mind

Instrumental with Willie and bobby

Hey good looking

Move it on over

Show shiner man

Roll me up and smoke me

I'll fly away

What a disappointment... I'm still a Willie fan, but he spoke through the songs more than he sang them, and the arrangements on all of the songs was such that he sounded like he was rushing through the lyrics. Also, the arrangement for almost every song was such that, other than the lyrics, they all sounded pretty much the same. I'm sure I'll draw flames from the die hard Willie fans, but I would have been better off staying home and letting a true, die hard fan take my seat. Kudos to Willie for still kicking it out, but maybe its time to consider doing more recording than touring.

The Outlaw Music fedtival 2017 was a fabulous show!! The whole line up was fantastic. I didn't know a few artists with Willie but of course all were above average and so great to listen to! We had a great time - Eric Church surprised everyone by an awesome solo acoustic performance, Sheryl Crow amazing - and Willie never ever disappoints. The song choices were all I could have hoped for, singing with his family- just loved the night!!! Only wish I could have been done front to have a shot at Gettjng Willies hat as he threw it to the audience!

Arrived in South Carolina to the arena to a sign saying the show was cancelled. I called the ticket vender to ask about the tickets. They said the could not confirm that the show was cancelled at that would attempt to find ot in 72 hours and the "might" email me.

So I can't review the show. I may have to litigate. They said they may not be able to refund. So I may make a criminal complaint. Or more simply..

Got my lawyers number saved in my phone.

We had an excellent time. It was great to see Willie so energetic and he played non stop. I hadn't seen him in quite a few years. The show seemed to end a little earlier than expected and I was a little disappointed that Lucas wasn't there but overall it was great! The crowd was great and everyone was happy to sing along. My mother has been a fan for years and this was her 1st time seeing him live, I'm so glad I got her the tickets for her birthday.

With a seven-decade career, Willie Nelson has earned every conceivable award as a musician and amassed reputable credentials as an author, actor, and activist. He continues to thrive as a relevant and progressive musical and cultural force.

In recent years, he has delivered more than a dozen new albums, released a Top 10  New York Times’  bestsellers book, again headlined Farm Aid (an event he co-founded in 1985) and his annual Willie Nelson’s 4th of July Picnic, been honored by the Library of Congress with their Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, received his 5th degree black belt in Gong Kwon Yu Sul, headlined the annual  Luck Reunion  food and music festival during SXSW, launched his cannabis companies Willie’s Reserve and Willie’s Remedy, and graced the covers of  Rolling Stone  and  AARP The Magazine .

Nelson started this decade by releasing four albums of newly recorded music— First Rose of Spring  (2020),  That’s Life  (2021),  The Willie Nelson Family  (2021), and  A Beautiful Time  (2022, GRAMMY Award winner for Best Country Album)—and three books— Me and Sister Bobbie: True Tales of The Family Band  (2020),  Willie Nelson’s Letters to America  (2021), and  Me and Paul: Untold Tale of a Fabled Friendship  (2022). Throughout 2023, Willie celebrates his 90th birthday with multiple projects and events including a two-night star-studded concert,  Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90 , that took place in April at the famed Hollywood Bowl, and released as a feature film in June.

The year began with the debut of “Wille Nelson & Family,” a new five-part film documentary series directed by Thom Zimny and Oren Moverman that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival as well as the release of a new album,  I Don’t Know a Thing About Love ,  which features 10 performances that pay tribute to American songwriter Harlan Howard. From June to October, Nelson headlines the annual  Outlaw Music Festival Tour .

In the Fall, two new releases debut: an album,  Bluegrass  (with newly recorded studio performances of 12 Willie Nelson-penned classics showcasing Willie with a bluegrass ensemble released September 15), and a new book,  Energy Follows Thought  (with stories behind the lyrics of 160 of his favorite songs, along with never-before-seen photos and ephemera coming on October 31). And on November 3, Nelson will be inducted into  The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame . These creative endeavors as well as new songs and performances that add to his classic catalog, find Willie Nelson rolling at an artistic peak, writing and singing and playing with the seasoned wit and wisdom that comes from the road.

Aerosmith announces rescheduled 2024-25 farewell tour dates. Get tickets

No need to “Dream On” much longer.

Aerosmith has finally announced the rescheduled dates of their ‘Peace Out’ farewell tour with special guests The Black Crowes and Teddy Swims on select dates.

The 40-concert jaunt will take the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers to arenas all over North America from September 2024 up until February 2025.

Notable shows include stops at Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Saturday, Dec. 28 and New York’s Madison Square Garden on Feb. 23, 2025.

Their last gig is scheduled for Feb. 26, 2025 at Buffalo’s KeyBank Center .

This upcoming trek will be the second attempt at rescheduling the tour; Steven Tyler sustained vocal cord damage at a Sept. 9, 2023 concert in Long Island — just three shows into their run — and the band had to postpone indefinitely.

“All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the rescheduled shows,” Aerosmith shared on Instagram .

If you haven’t gotten tickets yet and want to sing along to “Sweet Emotion,” “Walk This Way,” “Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” and so many more hits one last time, tickets can be scooped up for all ‘Peace Out’ concerts as soon as today.

Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, April 12, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.

Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

A complete calendar including all rescheduled ‘Peace Out’ tour dates, venues, and links to buy tickets can be found below.

The original Aerosmtih lineup won’t be fully intact on this run of concerts.

Yes, lead singer Steven Tyler, guitarist Joe Perry, bassist Tom Hamilton and rhythm guitarist Brad Whitford are slated to perform at all shows.

However, drummer Joey Kramer will be sitting this run of shows out to “focus his attention on his family and health” according to  AP News .

Kramer, 72, will be replaced by John Douglas who has drummed with the band since 2019.

Aerosmith got three shows deep into their ‘Peace Out’ Farewell Tour before postponing.

For a closer look, here’s what they played at a recent live show courtesy of  Set List FM :

01.) “Back in the Saddle”

02.) “Same Old Song and Dance”

03.) “Rag Doll”

04.) “Livin’ on the Edge”

05.) “Janie’s Got a Gun”

06.) “No More No More”

07.) “Cryin’”

08.) “Adam’s Apple”

09.) “Hangman Jury”

10.) “Seasons of Wither”

11.) “Movin’ Out”

12.) “Love in an Elevator”

13.) “Stop Messin’ Around” (Fleetwood Mac cover)

14.) “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing”

15.) “Rats in the Cellar”

16.) “Sweet Emotion”

17.) “Toys in the Attic”

18.) “Dream On”

19.) “Walk This Way”

On all dates except their opener when they’ll perform with Teddy Swims, Aerosmith will be joined by  The Black Crowes aka Rolling Stone’s “best new band of 1990.”

The band, known for mega hits “Hard To Handle” and “She Talks To Angels,” is also conducting a solo tour of their own this year including a show at New York’s Radio City Music Hall on April 27.

If you want to see them live, click here to see The Black Crowes’ complete 2024 tour calendar.

In 1973, the 25-year-old Tyler was given guardianship of 16-year-old Julia Holcomb so the two could live together.

After a tumultuous three-year relationship, the two broke up.

Nearly 50 years later, Holcomb — who now goes by Julia Misley — filed a lawsuit in December 2022. In the suit, she claimed Tyler sexually assaulted her, forced her to abort their child, and convinced her to drink and take drugs after he promised to serve as her guardian.

In the trial, Tyler alleged the relationship was consensual and had immunity because of his guardian status.

Legal experts have since said “caregiver immunity” does not exist if you sexually abuse the person you’ve taken in.

“The lawsuit came in the final days of California’s Child Victims Act, which temporarily lifted the statute of limitations for survivors of childhood sexual abuse to come forward with their allegations,” Consequence of Sound reported.

Jeanne Bellino, another minor that was sexually abused by Tyler in the 1970s, also filed a lawsuit against him; US District Judge Lewis Kaplan threw the case out this February because she “had waited too long to sue Tyler under a New York City law protecting victims of gender-motivated violence,” Reuters wrote.

“(Kaplan) said Bellino did not qualify for a two-year window to pursue claims that would otherwise extend beyond statutes of limitations, because she did not allege that Tyler’s conduct posed a “serious risk of physical injury.”

Many of the biggest acts that defined the sound of the ’70s and ’80s are back on the road this year for another spin.

Here are just five of our favorite classic rockers you won’t want to miss live these next few months.

•  Rolling Stones

•  Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band

•  Neil Young

•  Bob Dylan with Willie Nelson and Robert Plant

•  Electric Light Orchestra
