146
00:10:50,733 --> 00:10:53,152

147
00:10:53,152 --> 00:10:54,904

to anything except Merle and Willie.

150
00:10:58,533 --> 00:11:01,244

What makes Willie Nelson an outlaw is just, you know,

409
00:29:43,782 --> 00:29:46,326
not wanting to conform, his wanting to be able to

410
00:29:46,326 --> 00:29:48,745
play his music the way he hears it.

411
00:29:48,745 --> 00:29:51,623
One of the main things that I've learned from

412
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:55,585
his story is the best thing you can do is follow

413
00:29:55,585 --> 00:29:57,963
your inspiration wherever it takes you, even if it's

414
00:29:57,963 --> 00:30:01,133
not what the industry wants you to do at that moment in time.

415
00:30:01,133 --> 00:30:04,594
His greatest impact on the music business has been that

416
00:30:04,594 --> 00:30:06,847
he could just tell everybody to ---- off.

417
00:30:06,847 --> 00:30:09,516
And he left town and he did it his way.

418
00:30:09,516 --> 00:30:13,353
The idea of style or what a person brings to a culture --

419
00:30:13,353 --> 00:30:16,314
the best and the most noticeable are just the

420

421

Willie's outlaw movement is kind of giving a finger

signed him to Atlantic Records, and they went up to New York.

Thank you, Willie.

907
01:06:50,131 --> 01:06:52,592
Willie is such an icon with the weed culture.

908
01:06:52,592 --> 01:06:53,593
The first time you get high,

909
01:06:53,593 --> 01:06:55,678
you associate it with Willie Nelson.

910
01:06:55,678 --> 01:06:57,180
[laughing] Like you just do.

911
01:06:57,180 --> 01:06:59,265
We went and hung out with him on his bus

912
01:06:59,265 --> 01:07:01,643
and got blisteringly stoned.

913
01:07:01,643 --> 01:07:05,438
And, uh, my mom has a photograph of my band, uh, and Willie.

914
01:07:05,438 --> 01:07:09,317
And we all just look so high, except for Willie:

915
01:07:09,317 --> 01:07:11,569
he just looks like Willie.

916
01:07:12,487 --> 01:07:14,322
It doesn't matter who steps on that bus,

917
01:07:14,322 --> 01:07:17,158
whether they're congressmen, senators, presidents,

918
01:07:17,158 --> 01:07:20,036
I've never seen Willie jump up and try to hide the stash

919
01:07:20,036 --> 01:07:23,748
because somebody's coming in-into the bus.

920
01:07:23,748 --> 01:07:25,041
[laughs]

921
01:07:26,209 --> 01:07:28,503
Willie said one time that a-a good song is

922
01:07:28,503 --> 01:07:30,505
nothing but three chords and the truth.

923
01:07:30,505 --> 01:07:33,424
I don't know if he made that up, but I heard him say it.

924
01:07:33,424 --> 01:07:36,719
And this next song right here has got three chords in it,

925
01:07:36,719 --> 01:07:38,721
and it's a true story about one night that I got to

926
01:07:38,721 --> 01:07:40,890
hang out with Willie.

927
01:07:40,890 --> 01:07:43,768
It all started when the show was over

928
01:07:43,768 --> 01:07:45,478
and we were in a big line.

929
01:07:45,478 --> 01:07:46,813
Everybody had their arms around each other.

930
01:07:46,813 --> 01:07:48,648
We were getting ready to take a bow.

931
01:07:48,648 --> 01:07:51,025
And everybody else was saying things like,

932
01:07:51,025 --> 01:07:52,360
"Hey, that was a great show, man"

933
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,737
and, you know, "Beautiful crowd tonight"

934
01:07:54,737 --> 01:07:56,739
and, you know, "It's the best ever," all that kind of stuff.

935
01:07:56,739 --> 01:07:58,324
And then Willie's right next to me

936
01:07:58,324 --> 01:08:00,994
and he leans over and he says, "Hey, want to go to my house

937
01:08:00,994 --> 01:08:02,495
and play some poker?"

938
01:08:02,495 --> 01:08:04,998
[audience laughs]

939
01:08:04,998 --> 01:08:06,082
I said, "Hell, yeah.

940
01:08:06,082 --> 01:08:07,083
Sounds amazing."

941
01:08:07,083 --> 01:08:08,584
So this is a song I wrote.

942
01:08:08,584 --> 01:08:11,004

988
01:10:23,302 --> 01:10:24,804
Today was, at rehearsal,

989
01:10:24,804 --> 01:10:26,472
was actually the first time I was ever on stage

990
01:10:26,472 --> 01:10:27,807
singing with him.

991
01:10:27,807 --> 01:10:29,851
I told him I was getting a complex because I was

992
01:10:29,851 --> 01:10:33,771
about the only one that has never sang with Willie before.

993
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:36,691
We were talking about, Well why don t you write something?

994
01:10:37,775 --> 01:10:40,945
And I was like, Mmm, I can t write with Willie.

995
01:10:40,945 --> 01:10:42,321
You know.

996
01:10:42,321 --> 01:10:44,115
But one morning I just got up and I said ya know,

997
01:10:44,115 --> 01:10:46,284
I m just gonna take a stab at it.

998
01:10:46,284 --> 01:10:47,869
I sent it to Willie.

999
01:10:47,869 --> 01:10:50,621
I said, Ya know, I don t--

1000
01:10:50,621 --> 01:10:51,789
I m not trying to--

1001
01:10:51,789 --> 01:10:54,292
but do you think you might wanna do this?

1002
01:10:54,292 --> 01:10:56,794
And he sent me a text back and said,

1003
01:10:56,794 --> 01:10:59,088
Yeah, I can answer that.

1004
01:10:59,088 --> 01:11:00,882
I said, Cool, let s do it.

1005
01:11:00,882 --> 01:11:02,633
So I came up with the song

1006
01:11:02,633 --> 01:11:04,635
"Never Got to Sing One with Willie"

1007
01:11:04,635 --> 01:11:07,597
and we ended up-- he wrote some.

1008
01:11:07,597 --> 01:11:10,892
Yeah, I m pretty stoked to be writing with Willie Nelson.

1009
01:11:12,184 --> 01:11:14,061
I can t wait to walk out there.

1010
01:11:15,188 --> 01:11:16,898
You know, I ve got a picture in my mind of what it s

1011
01:11:16,898 --> 01:11:18,691
gonna be like, you know.

1012
01:11:18,691 --> 01:11:20,276
I m hoping it s that.

1013
01:11:21,402 --> 01:11:24,363
It s just gonna be incredible for me.

1014
01:11:24,363 --> 01:11:25,740
And I told him-- that s in the song--

1015
01:11:25,740 --> 01:11:28,034
you made my career, you really did.

1016
01:11:30,786 --> 01:11:34,207
Now, we all know Willie doesn't mind being called an outlaw.

1017
01:11:34,207 --> 01:11:37,043
And neither does our next artist mind being called

1018
01:11:37,043 --> 01:11:38,628

With over 35 years of smash hits under his belt,

1021
01:11:43,716 --> 01:11:46,594
he's got a pretty good claim to that crown.

1022
01:11:46,594 --> 01:11:49,222

He really loves playing the practical jokes.

We-we've never gotten into, uh, a level of-of being

1099
01:17:23,639 --> 01:17:24,849
prankish with each other.

1100
01:17:24,849 --> 01:17:27,184
But we both love dirty jokes.

they're not always made for TV.

1103
01:17:33,858 --> 01:17:36,568
Suffice it to say, he's a funny guy.

1104
01:17:37,027 --> 01:17:39,488
Uh, what was the one...

1105
01:17:39,488 --> 01:17:41,907
no, no, we can't tell any of his jokes.

1106
01:17:41,907 --> 01:17:45,952
He's just the got the most hilarious sense of humor.

1107
01:17:45,952 --> 01:17:47,454
And he loves a good laugh.

1108
01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:49,665
But he loves it, you know, and that's --

1109
01:17:49,665 --> 01:17:51,166
he wouldn't have it any other way.

1110
01:17:51,166 --> 01:17:53,335

He's one of the great American songwriters of all time.
