    Today would have been Townes Van Zandt’s 80th birthday. I think this is a fitting memorial.

    "He was dead inside my head long before he died" is such a perfect summation of what it's like watching someone decline, seemingly in slow motion, from a terminal illness. Willi never ceases to amaze with his song writing 😢

      Or addiction. It's all death and it's all depressing as get out

      Huh. I took that line to mean 'he was dead to me long before he died'.

      Ikr I’m sitting here in class playing Russian roulette with his music, if I cry and embarrass myself, or get a medicine like experience from it.

    Willi is one of those special ones, sings from the heart, right to the soul. His music is better than any therapy.

    Well, I thought I was safe to listen to this one. I’ve heard it live and I had a good dad. Certainly this is a song that I’ll be able to get through without a breakdown. Then “even bastards need their friends”…. Waterfalls. Willi can’t write a song that isn’t universally relatable no matter how specific the material. Tears are cathartic though I suppose.

    Fuck me, man. It was a pleasure meeting you last month. And there's something about this song, working through your own relationship with your pops, it seems like both when you wrote it and each time you perform it... I suppose from the million of the rest of us that haven't found the right words for ourselves let alone others, thank you.

    I've been working on killing the misandry my father and others instilled in me lately 'cause I just had a son. I don't want him to feel that way about himself just for existing. Beautiful song, Willi. Thank you.

      He is fortunate to be born to you. The suffocating swamp of shit we men spend our lives drowning in can only be drained through affectionate love and acceptance. Not acceptance of actions, but of people. Everyone needs that, not just men. It sounds like you're giving it to yourself also. Remember to celebrate yourself as you celebrate him. Parenting is the work of the angels.
