Willie Nelson at Comerica Theatre 3/12/12

It was a quarter after eight when the Red-Headed Stranger took the stage at Comerica Theatre last night. He hadn't even played a note, but the crowd of retirees stood in applause beside younger admirers of the man who is not so red-headed these days, and was certainly no stranger to the cheering audience. The younger folk (who helped older patrons down the stairs to their seats) shouted encouragement throughout the night, yelling things like, "Hell Yeah, Willie," and, "Give it to 'em, Willie!" Willie gave it to everybody, young and old. Read the full Willie Nelson review here. PHOTOS BY MARIA VASSETT.
