Against all the odds in one of the most dramatic comebacks in music history, the red-headed outlaw of country, rock and roll, and folk music, Willie Nelson is gearing up for another tour across the country. Recently the 91-year-old icon was forced to cancel several of his shows for Outlaw Music Festival Tour because of an illness that is not disclosed. However, in a great message, on the wall of his Facebook profile, doctors have granted him the permission to continue with performances.
“He will carry on with the Outlaw Tour’s performances next week,” the unadulterated happiness in the message posted on Friday could not be missed.
These concerts, of Saturday in Wantagh, New York and Sunday in Holmdel, New Jersey, were intense and Nelson’s sudden health incidence put paid to two high-profile shows. Thus, the spectators were anxious, concerned, I believe, waiting with bated breath for the best outcome for their favorite musician.
Now that the tour is back on track, the anticipation level is the highest. Nelson’s work ethic and love for music are the two main attributes that have provided foundation for his long career and his return is sure to be a refusal that he cannot die.
Perhaps that is why Willie Nelson’s rise and experiences in the course of music business can best be described as epic. Nelson has come to stay in American music industry with a career of over 6 decades in the industry. Arguably non-conventional in terms of both voice and guitar, Nelson has given the world hit songs such as ‘On the Road Again’ and ‘Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain.’
