KENANSVILLE, N.C. — Singer and guitarist Willie Nelson canceled a North Carolina concert because of a bum hand about an hour after several band and crew members were busted for allegedly possessing moonshine and marijuana.
Alcohol Law Enforcement spokesman Ernie Seneca said Friday that six members of Nelson’s band and crew were cited for misdemeanor possession offenses. They were issued the citations before the Texas singer was scheduled to take the stage Thursday night.
Longtime Nelson bass player Dan Edward “Bee” Spears, 60, and five others were charged with possession of non-tax-paid alcohol, Seneca said. Two of the six also were charged with marijuana possession. The Associated Press
