Outlaw country legend Willie Nelson was forced to abort a concert after just a single song on Saturday night due to breathing difficulties, and now the 84-year-old has canceled upcoming dates for this week.

He is 84 and keeps a schedule that runs circles around most 30 year olds.

That is true, and I like Willie, though not that many of his songs are on my favorites list. But he is definitely on the bong too much.

I hate his politics. Love a good deal of his music.

He’s that nutty stoner that should stay out of politics and looks like a cross between pippi longstockings and and a white raisin.

He’s probably drinking, which is socially acceptable...

Yet, everyone seems to be on board with promoting the sale of marijuana.

After all, second hand smoke is bad for you, cigarette smoke is bad for you, cigars are bad for you.

But not weed. No no somehow that doesn’t bother your lungs.

Didn’t he do a song about a cherub with a really bad dog bite? Angel flying too close to the hound? Something like that.
