DJBrenton 738 Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 My favourite Haggard story is the one where he told Johnny Cash how much he’d enjoyed the show at San Quentin prison. “I didn’t think you played on that one, Merle”, Cash answered, a little confused. Haggard’s reply was “I didn’t – I was in the crowd”.Anyone who could out-outlaw Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson can only be described as a legend. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
