Poor Willie. I'm sure he loses sleep about what you guys think. Bill Hicks? Bet he would have done a commercial vouching for Preparation H, if they had offered it to him. Calling Bill Hicks a genius is like calling a Turd, Play Dough. Just because you think it's Play Dough, doesn't alter the fact it's a Turd. He hated everyone who had success at anything. And losers always find camaraderie in their own kind.
He's hardly the first to have no choice but to do a commercial because of tax problems! Hello, Iggy Pop doing Royal Carribean Cruises?? That's even worse!
Budweiser sponsored the Rolling Stones Tour, and Sony Ericson sponsored Usher's tour, and at the time that Willie did Taco Bell, his tour was sponsored by Jose Cuervo. That's advertising you Numb Nuts. That's why the stars have the money and you're collecting your govenment dole while listening to a hack comedian preach the gospel of musical morality. Duh. What is a record anyway except an advertisement for the musician himself and the record label? Whatta buncha brain dead couch potatoes.
You're a fucking dumb ass. It's really quite pathetic. There's a difference between having sponsors and actually making a commercial endorsing products. And it is quite idiotic to call a record a form of advertising. They're put out so everybody has access to the music, not just people that go to concerts. You're a hack demon from hell, and I hope people don't fall for your logic distortions. Bill was a genius, end of fucking story. Now go collect YOUR government dole.
Poor Willie. Bill Hicks does a really funny bit about Willie doing this commercial "I'm sitting here selling tacos, waiting for the women with the rose tattoo"
What a wonderful ad! All the taco bell border spots were so good. I remember Johnny Cash did some, and Little Richard did so many. I was always happy when a new one came out. Memorized so many of them. Wish someone made ads like those today, they were so entertaining.
One of the best commercials ever made. The year this came out USA Today named it one of the top ten for the year. Run For The Border was the most successful campaign in Taco Bell History. Taco Bell's sales fell dramatically when they stopped the Run For the Border campaign and went to the Chihuahua.
The sad thing is this commercial is the first thing I can remember clearly from when I was little. I was only two; I thought this commercial came out later than that. Thanks for the flashback!
willie didnt want to do an ad but he got taxed so much monry by the goverment due to some tax vilotation the poor man had no choice lol......and go bill hicks!!! r.i.p
"Selling out" is violating your own personal principles for money. As far as I know, Willie Nelson has never taken any sort of stance against advertising, so therefore him appearing in a commercial is not selling out. Period.
Now Bill Hicks doing a commercial for Orange Drink? Yeah, that would be selling out. George Carlin doing a commercial for 10-10-220? Yeah, that WAS selling out. Why? Because both of those individuals took hard stances against advertising.
I wouldn't call it selling out. He had to do a few things he wouldn't normally do so he could pay the IRS the millions they said he owed. I still love him him and always will.
He did owe it, it wasn't alleged lol. Willie always harked on greedy america, but just like everyone else, he was a dumb greedy bastard like the rest of them. Made uncountable amounts of money and still couldn't keep control of it. Pathetic really.
That's the main reason I dislike Willie so much, he was a fucking hypocrite, just like Hicks.
