Is there anyone on earth who doesn’t love Willie Nelson? He is one of those Texans we can all look at and say, “Yep, that’s our guy.” And he was the only fitting choice to kick off a little TV show that originated here to showcase the best of Texas and other roots music to the whole world through long-form live concerts.

Willie and friends kill here, of course. Who would expect anything less?

Expect a screening of the full pilot episode of ACL as well as selected clips of other great performances from the show.

All proceeds benefit Health Alliance for Austin Musicians, and giveaways of ACL Fest passes at each show.
