Nelson cancels concert; band members face drug, alcohol charges

Last night’s Willie Nelson concert in Duplin County was cancelled at the last minute. Word was that Willie wasn’t feeling up to it.

It was also rather interesting backstage before the concert as state ALE agents charged three members of the band with misdemeanor possession of marijuana and non-tax paid alcohol or moonshine.

If the concert is not rescheduled, we’re told ticket holders should get their money back.

We’ll have more on this story tonight on WWAY NewsChannel 3 starting at 5.
