this was a great show, too… Mr. Willie Nelson just killed it on his beautiful guitar… ripping it up… maybe he felt extra competitive with his son Lukas or perhaps it was the lightning flickering through the sky but his fingers were flying… it was awesome!
oh yeah… the award was presented by Bernie Sanders but also came from a local internet station… Burlington’s Kinda Music. check them out at

He is such an amazing guitar player. So fun to see them play blues together.
