Willie Nelson stopped by to promote his new album, ‘Country Music,’ and told Howard he was strictly a weed man: “Alcohol was making me a mean guy…we didn’t have [weed] when I was growing up. We had cigarettes, Bull Durham and whiskey.” Willie said he’d recently taken steps to improve his puffing habits: “I’ve kind of switched over to the vaporizer…vaporizers are better for your lungs because you don’t inhale any heat and you don’t inhale any smoke.
Willie said it’d become a way of life: “Some people smoke to get high. I smoke to get normal.” Howard asked if Willie’s wife, Annie, smoked but Willie said she did not–but doesn’t mind that he does: “I think I finally found someone who’ll put up with me.”
I understand he spoke about Leon Russell, what did he say?
Way to go Willie, you do what’s right for you. If alcohol makes you a mean guy and weed makes you feel normal, I say,go for it.
