Willie Nelson tour bus crashes in Texas

An early Saturday morning (11/23) crash of a bus carrying Willie Nelson's band members about 80 miles north of Dallas resulted in a broken hip for drummer Paul Nelson and and minor injuries to two other band members.  The legendary Country-American singer was on another bus that was not involved in the crash. The accident happened at around 3:30am during heavy rains on Route 30 near the town of Sulfer Springs, Texas when one of the tour busses being buffetted by high winds in the rain reportedly left the highway and struck a bridge column.  The band was en route to a casino engagement in Mississippi when the wreck took place.  That show and and other dates have been put on hold.
