Duuude, Willie's in Town!

Singer uses bus for marijuana breaks

Share

(Newser) – It’s as though the '60s (and the '70s, and the '80s) never ended. The scent of marijuana pouring out of a tour bus in Manhattan can be blamed on Willie Nelson, the New York Post reports. Savvy passers-by have realized the bus, parked outside Manny’s Music all week, belongs to the country crooner, who is recording a jazz album in the studio above.
