Country music fans have come to expect a little eccentricity from legendary crooner Willie Nelson, but he pulled off a real shocker this time: He cut his hair.

But spokeswoman Elaine Schock said Nelson, who's been hanging loose in Hawaii, got his hair cut in the past couple of weeks.... he might have grown tired of dealing with long locks. She said, "there's a lot of maintenance."

I find it more shocking that he's not playing that old nylon-string acoustic.

He and Kris Kristofferson both have homes here on Maui and both can be seen at Charleys, if your lucky.

Apparently Willie had a bastard son with Pippi Longstocking.

Maybe he smoked it after mistaking his hair for a giant blunt.

Willie gets stoned “so he don’t care no more”.
Nothing like tripping on mushrooms, getting tangled up in your long hair, and thinking snakes are trying to kill you.


Recently I saw a picture of Willie with a “fox” on his arm. She weren’t no snake. I think he’s only into weed.

Funny story about Willie...He once owned a golf course....Asked by a reporter, “What’s par on this hole, Willie?”

Willie responded, “Any damn thing I want it to be...I OWN IT !!! yesterday, it was a par 9 and I birdied the sucker...”

What has 88 eyes and 6 teeth?

Answer: The front row of a Willie Nelson concert.

Did he donate his hair to Louisianna to sop up the oil slicks?
