Yup, I really want to see Willie at TBF. I saw him in August of 2011, but the venue wasn't great. The sound bounced around the concrete walls like you wouldn't believe. Town Park would be a much better venue!

I had the same problem when I saw him. It sucked.

That said, I +1 Willie as that would be the ultimate set for one night in Town Park.

Best book him soon. He turns 80 this year.

Hey, how about a Willie Nelson/Ralph Stanley duet?

Perhaps with a splash of Keller Williams with him and the band?????

tbf 1999   brought a tear to my eye, playing a couple of cuts off of Teatro album with emmylou harris duet. also had hail plomping in my beer, it kept it cold alright.   He's only played once, and not getting any younger. If you have never embraced Willie, your missin' some great american pie. What a treat he is.

He's actually played twice. He played in 82, as well. I feel like having him there for his 80th birthday at the 40th TBF would be way too cool.
