Today is Texas music icon Willie Nelson's 80th birthday.

He's having a birthday bash concert (I don't remember exactly where; offhand listening to SirriusXM while driving)...with the proceeds going to two fire departments having to do with the West, Texas blast.

Happy Birthday, Willie.....many happy returns!

It's @ the Backyard in Austin. His hometown of Abbott is right next to West.

I entered a contest for free tickets to that a while back--guess I didn't win them! . Love Willie--saw him the first time in the late 70s @ Mississippi State, then too many times to count since then. I think the best ever was a free concert at the Mid-South Fair in Memphis (a fair that no longer exists due to attitude/demographics--but that's a whole 'nother thread, lol). I was on the second row, & he looked right at me through half the songs! My husband was like, "he's staring right at us!", but I was thinking, no, Hon, he's staring at ME!

Happy Birthday, Willie!

It's actually in Bee Cave, not Austin, about 2 miles East of me. We can hear all the concerts for free as they're really loud.

We might go hang out at the Park right behind it to get an even better listen. It's a public/city park so they can't prevent you from being there...
