Buck Haggard

Went to Forza to hear Buck Haggard tonight--a band formed by some friends of mine. They play--obviously--country music, much of it by Buck Owens and Merle Haggard--maybe all of it. Only three of them--lead, bass and drums. Great music! Great friends. What else in life do we need? A little food, clothes to wear, some money to spend on the essentials and a few pleasures. Love, music, food, . . .Ah, life is good. I want to know more of this simple life--I want to live my life with as little stress as possible. Playing music--my own and other people's--is the most relaxing way I know to live--I want to make music the rest of my life. To write music, to play music--for my own edification, if not for other people. YES!
