Title: Willie Cuts his Braids Off

I've been growing my Willie Nelson style braids (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pmcd9/4598039305/) for the past two years or so.

I miss the braids, but I can't really blame Willy.  Long hair can be a real pain in the ass to take care of.

Good for Wiilie. Ditching the braids & beard took 20 years off his face. In fact, he looks a lot like he did in the early '70s.

There's film of him with a ducktail singing backup for Patsy Cline. First that it was him amazed me; then, his voice did.

What I wouldn't give to be on his bus after a show.

Huh?  I thought it made him look older.
