According to This Day In Country Music, It was not a good day for Country Legend Merle Haggard on this date in 1981. Around $175,000 worth of his sound equipment and instruments were stolen prior to a show in Houston. The good news is? Most of the equipment was recovered the next day when the thief tried to sell it at a local pawn shop proving that crooks aren't real smart.
Check out these photo's I took on January 24th of 2015 which turned out to be the last time Merle played Augusta! I miss Merle Haggard!
