usician, author, and longtime stoner Willie Nelson celebrated the end of last year with a few historic, which surveys the lyrics and inspiration of 160 of his songs from his decades-long career. In November 2023, Nelson was also inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. At the ceremony, fellow musician Dave Matthews spoke about Nelson’s historic career, and joked about his many cannabis-related moments, such as smoking in the White House. Nelson kept his own acceptance speech short and thankful. “Thank all y’all for this great honor. I appreciate the acknowledgement of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame,” Nelson said. “Included with so many legends and some I’m lucky enough to call a friend. Thanks again for including me tonight. And thanks for appreciating my music.”
