Music Forum

BREAUX BRIDGE, La. Sep 18, 2006 (AP)— Willie Nelson and several members of his band were issued misdemeanor citations for drug possession early today during a traffic stop in Saint Martin Parish.

The traffic stop was conducted on Interstate 10 near Breaux Bridge.

Trooper Willie Williams says troopers smelled a strong odor of marijuana when the driver opened the bus door.

During a search of the bus, Williams say approximately 1 1/2 pounds of marijuana and approximately 2/10 of a pound of mushrooms were located on the bus.

The 73-year-old Nelson of Spicewood, Texas; 59-year-old Tony Sizemore of Saint Cloud, Fla.; 75-year-old Bobbie Nelson of Briarcliff, Texas; 54-year-old Gates Moore of Austin, Texas; and 50-year-old David Anderson of Dallas, Texas were issued citations for possession of mushrooms and possession of marijuana and released.

Smoking dope and doing Shrooms. Crazy old feller.

hahahahahahaha, not at all surprised. Is that Bobbie Nelson fellow his brother?

I think so.


Man. in their 70's, you would think they would have kicked it by now....

It is odd to think about this 70 plus country star taking shrooms. But then, when the Rolling Stones are in their 80s, even, do you expect them to stop?

I kind of feel sorry that he still has this touring bus, smoking pot, groupies kinda lifestyle at such an old age...
