Merle Haggard @ the Crystal Palace, Bakersfield, CA

Benny Haggard Is Playing Lead Guitar. They Say He Is Better Than Merle On The Guitar & He Is Only 16

@WOODYSKYM I like his son very good on the guitar. He had the best teacher, but I wouldn't go that far to say he is better than Merle. I don't think so, Merle is a great guitarist. He does stuff that no one else does, but Benny is young and has Merle to teach him. I am a guitarist myself and I really like Benny. No one plays like Merle, if any one will or can it will most likely be Benny. Thank You

For a man at his age to have a cancerous tumour remove and to get back performing so quickly shows that Merle is a man with lots of faith, stamina, and determination. Merle's more than just a country music legend, but a maverick, a trooper, and a survivor.

Thanks, I was hoping someone would share some footage of Merle singing at the Crystal Palace. It is wonderful to hear Merle sounding as good as ever!! I know he is doing what he and all of us love and I hope he takes the time to get enough rest following his surgery. Thanks for sharing and please share more of this concert if available.
