Nelson cancels concert
Singer and guitarist Willie Nelson canceled a North Carolina concert because of a bum hand about an hour after several band and crew members were arrested and charged with possessing moonshine and pot. Alcohol Law Enforcement spokesman Ernie Seneca said Friday that six members of Nelson's band and crew have been charged with misdemeanor possession offenses.
A Miriam Makeba tribute concert, which was supposed to take place at the Union Buildings in Pretoria on Saturday, has been cancelled, organiser Morris Roda said on Friday.
