Yes it is. His life history is interesting in that he has
approached the music career in varying ways. From his start
in Texas many years ago he moved up to Nashville.. He got
disgusted with the situation and moved back to the Texas Hill
country. Started playing the clubs around the Austin area and
it ballooned from there.

Pretty scary considering Nelsons voice is an easy warble that would tend to tax the lungs the least.

There is some truth to that, but those having respiratory difficulties are usually not feeling up to social events anyway.

The main point is that is is far more effective than the fake pharma stuff, and it strengthens your body rather than weakening it.

That's just terrible!

Showing some guy smoking cigarettes.

Those are bad for you.

Smoking OTHER leaves are very, very good for you.

Ask any pot smoker.

Smoking those leaves is just magical.

Don't believe me?

Ask State governments.

Light up a cigar at the beach? A big fine.

But of course, we'll figure out a way for marijuana to be smoked indoors.

It's for the children.

Yeah - like government really cares about your health. They want one thing: money. Sick, but true.

That's a good one!  That one guy's guitar there looks all beat up like Willie's.   (I wonder if that's from endless playing & practice, or if it has something to do with herbal indulgence.)

Yup. Have been dealing with that cold and/or flu combo for a couple of weeks. It’s a bad one this Winter. And it drags on and on.

Red Headed Stranger is really good, but I think Teatro is his best.
