I was reading the list of names thinking..no surprises here..til I came to Merle. WTH??
I mean....COME ON ..Merle Haggard?
Is nothing sacred?
I know.
It's just....heartbreaking.
That the only word I have to describe it.
I've watched interviews of him and he's gone completely 'tinfoil hat'.
At one point,several years ago, his official website was pages and pages of links to crazy conspiracy sites.
I haven't looked recently, but eventually it sort of toned down a bit and listed the [very few] upcoming concert dates and locations.
*sigh*
This is the only "opinion" remaining on his official site;
http://www.merlehaggard.com/merles-editorial.html
Apparently somebody else is webmastering for him now because the site looks *nothing* like it did a few years back.
[his manager probably grabbed his leash and snapped it a good 'un]....;D
