Kris Kristofferson tonight in Salem

Forums:

Heading down to Salem for the show tonight.   Never seen the dude before and wanted to finally check out the "me" in "Me and Bobby McGee."   Apparently, he has a backing band called the Strangers.

On the off chance anybody is in the area, my buddy's girlfriend couldn't make it so we have a extra to give away if anybody is interested. 

I think he’s touring with Merle haggards band.

Just a hunch.

man that would be a cool show, enjoy!

We saw him and Merle at Golden Gate Park. 

Hope you enjoyed the show.  Saw him last year at Merlefest and thought he was great.  He's doing great for 82 years old, but he is 82. The Strangers are Merle Haggard's old band.  I thought Kris and the Strangers were much more enjoyable than Merle and the Strangers, who played Merlefest in 2014 with an American flag merch invasion that was less than subtle.
