Willie Nelson band members busted on pot, moonshine charges; NC concert cancelled

Published January 29th, 2010



According to a report by the Charlotte Observer singer and guitarist Willie Nelson canceled a North Carolina concert because of a bum hand about an hour after several band and crew members were busted for possessing moonshine and pot.
Alcohol Law Enforcement spokesman Ernie Seneca said Friday that six members of Nelson's band and crew have been charged with misdemeanor possession offenses. They were cited before the Texas singer was to take the stage Thursday night at the Duplin County Events Center.
Nelson's daughter said on the musician's Web site that the show was called off because his hand hurt too badly to play. The right-handed guitar-picker had carpel tunnel surgery on his left hand in 2004.
