Willie Nelson Brings Out the Family to Bonnaroo

Having Willie Nelson play the evening set on Day Two of Bonnaroo is a no-brainer. It was a seamless transition from Nashville's Raconteurs, with the crowd singing along to classics like 'Mama's Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys.' Although it was counter-intuitive for certain types of folk, Bonnaroo can be a family affair. Nelson brought out all his kin for the occasion, letting son Luke lead guitar and vocals for the blues number 'Flooding in Texas.' Son Michael handled drums. Afterwards, Nelson's sister Bobby performed a song on piano before he launched back into hits like 'Help Me Make It Through the Night' and 'Me and Bobbie McGee' -- a tune the large hippie contingency in the audience certainly appreciated.
