Hag is back

Actually, he never left. And he's still a vital, if cranky, artist. Check out the Washington Times review of his performance at the Birchmere in Alexandria last night: "Haggard proves he's still a rebel." Inspirational quote: "[A]s soon as Mr. Haggard dug into 'Big City — after a false start, no less — it became clear that the country legend occupies a corner of our popular consciousness similar to that of his friend, the late Johnny Cash. (Mr. Haggard was there for Mr. Cash's famous concert at San Quentin State Prison — in the audience.)" Incidentally, "Big City" is the song that refers to "your so-called Social Security."
