For those of you who don't know it Kris was not drinking. He hasn't had a drink in years. That was what ended his marriage to Rita. At 73 he doesn't have the stamina he used to. Kris is a true Icon. There were a lot of really rude people in that bar and I think it affected his performance. Everyone there should have shown respect for him
People, Yes he was wiped out. So be it. Does that take away from his greatest efforts? No, I don' t think so. Tootie' s is a party anyway. Get real. In the ville after 10 o clock pm you be headin to Tootsie' s . Best party in town.
most confident and least capable...Kris is rat arsed and he knows it..it might have been better if the other guys had played along...he's an American icon and I'm still a fan but he might have been wiser to stay by the bar....drunk as he was you could tell he wasn't happy with himself....The audience were drunk as well.....that's what happens in bars.
OK CHILDERN. .THE SONG HE'S SINGING IS: "ME & BOBBIE McGEE" HE'S NOT HAVING TROUBLE SINGING IT HE'S HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE GUITAR GOING OUT OF TUNE KRIS WAS BORN JUNE 22 1936 THAT MAKES HIM 73 NEXT MONTH. HE'S AN OLD FRIEND OF MY IN THE 1970's..S.F. & NASHVILLE PLEASE HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGWRITERS OF ALL TIME.
GG, you needn't be angry on them, it's a waste of time, they just don't know; but what I'm wondering about is that "audience" (it actually is no audience, cause they don't listen - so, what is it??), they just know half a line of Me and Bobby McGee - so what are they doing at a place like this while Kris is singing???? What would I pay or do just to be that near to Kris while he was singing...
@girlgeorgeberk Thank you for posting this. I have been a huge fan since I was a little girl. Would have loved to been there to see this. God Bless KK..
It's a shame that Kris seems to have trouble singing here. Cool to see though, that crowd is loud as hell. I get a kick out of the intro guy. Big fan, huh, but he can't even get the title of "Help Me Make It Through the Night" correct.
a lot of people call the song Take the ribbon from your hair...including willie nelson!!!!
John Rich is a great friend of Kristofferson and Kristofferson has done a couple songs with him and been in vidoes with him.
As far as him having trouble singing, he is 76 years old.. cut him some slack! Lets see you sing great when you are that age!!!! In fact lets see you write one song as great as some of his!!!!!
Hey, I'm all good with his singing. I love it. I'm trying to show some sympathy for the guy. I mean, he's obviously not pleased with the difficulty he's having either.
Kris Kristofferson has been sober since 1976. He's 76, tired, and performing to an audience of obnoxious ingrates.
