When I was alive, we were buds.

He helped me on the vocals of Luckenbach, Texas and after I left this earth, he did Good Ol' Boys for the Dukes of Hazzard movie.

The only two things in life that make it worth livin'
Is guitars that tune good and firm feelin' women
I don't need my name in the marquis lights
I got my song and I got you with me tonight
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love

That dude is still very good at guitar. I mean his fingers have gotta be pretty arthritic at ago 80, right? Still v. impressive. Hard to sing along to, though, because he just sorta mixes it up and ad libs a different melody line every time. But man. What a cool looking d00d. And he was great in Half Baked too, obviously.

He's rough ridin' 80 dude.  Go buy a CD and listen to it.  He's brilliant.

A friend of mine has been involved with Willie recording stuff in Memphis a couple of times. He smoke weed all day. Like, aaaallll day. Wake and bake, keeps a joint lit the rest of the day. Plays and records just fine throughout the process. But every day around 5pm he'd as for a glass of wine. About halfway through said glass he would be too messed up to play guitar or sing anymore. Basically just would pass out right about then. Funny guy.
