Waylon Jennings may have left us for that great honky tonk in the sky in 2002, but his music lives on today at drunken parties and in the hearts of people who claim real country music died with him.

Waylon Jennings would have turned... well, he was born in 1937, so doing the math he would have been... old.  Waylon Jennings has as authentic & unique a voice as there's ever been in country music, and his legend grows every day.  He's the Paul Bunyon of country music.  A large number of legit country legends and several hangers-on and posers will be paying tribute to the legend in Austin this July.

Happy birthday, Waylon!!
