I’ve been slacking. No excuses…just slacking.
That said, I’m off to see Willie Nelson this weekend at the St. Augustine Amphitheater. At some point I decided I only wanted to see artists in smaller venues and this sure fits the bill. I’d love to catch him somewhere like Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, but [...]
