He came to celebrate Willie, his best friend of over 50 years. He sang both nights after having been retired for some time. That took guts. This 86-year old troubadour has written some of the finest songs in the English language, and he can sing them any damned place and any damned way he wants to. This is the same man who stood up for his principles and endured the oppobrium heaped on his head by folks who thought we had the right to interfere in other foreign countries as much as we wanted. Never backed down, regardless of the impact on his career. I cried too, not because of heartbreak, but because it was so great to see him again. The fact that he retired totally without fanfare is a measure of the man's humility, and I'm sure that the incredible reaction of the crowd both stunned him and warmed his heart.

I have loved Kris Kristofferson since I was 12 years old. 59 years old now. His pictures were all over my room, t shirts I wore with his picture, albums, movies, etc... I met him twice in Savannah, Georgia. Once after a concert at 16 years old at Savannah Civic Center, went on his bus and in Donnie Fritz room at The Desota Hilton. Donnie Fritz called my home at 12 something that night and my mother cussed him out not knowing or caring, totally embarrassing. Then after another show he did at a bar "Night Lights" in Savannah at 21 years old. I met him personally, chatted, even got a huge kiss. He has and always will be my major crush and love. Thank you Jesus❣️ Kristofferson 💖❣️ BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES FOREVER ♾️

There are so many memories I have of Kris growing up. I was lucky enough to have a mother and aunt who had great taste in music. I remember where I was and what we were doing when at 5 years old listening to Janis Joplin singing for the first time on the radio Bobby McGee. I remember Sammi Smith singing Help Me Make It Through The Night and seeing the man who wrote those amazing songs for the first time when I was 10 in A Star is Born with my Aunt, Grandma, and cousin. About 25 years ago my mother, aunt, and I stumbled near his ranch in Maui. When we found out it was the Kristofferson ranch we, didn't dare trespass on his property or try to meet him, we did spend the rest of the day in Hanna smiling and singing all his songs. He is as much a part of my life and special memories as Elvis. In a few years, we will be celebrating this special 90th birthday occasion for you! You are so loved and appreciated Kris!♥♥

I saw Kris at a concert at the music circus n Massachusetts in the early 80’s. I became a fan after seeing him in the movie, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Have loved him ever since. His songs are poetry put to music. After the concert, his and his band went outside to chat and sign autographs. My husband, Bob was talking to Donnie and I was waiting to get an autograph. My husband shouted “Kris, can you come over and give my wife a kiss so I can go home”. Kris walked over to us, shook my husbands hand and gave me a sweet kiss on the lips. I was in heaven! I also saw him and Rita Coolidge twice. The last concert I saw him at was with my granddaughter three years ago. He still was great. A great, great songwriter.

First off, Kris is without competition my favorite singer songwriter of all my life, and I'm 73! And this comes from someone who was a rabid Beatles fan, before I ever even heard of Kris. But even John and Paul don't match Kris's genius as a song writer. And though many people have covered his songs, only Kris can sing them with the heart and soul his songs deserve, imo! You asked for my favorite Kris memory. That would have to be during the first concert of his, I went out of 4 times. This concert was in the Muncipal Auditorium in Kansas City, KS, which is not a huge venue, and I was lucky to be in the front third or so, so had an excellent view. This was back in 1974 or '75, and I was already a HUGE fan. So I was pretty much hanging on his every word and note. Now mind you, as with most of the time in that era of his life, he was either, pretty darn drunk or high, or both. But anyone who was a Kris fan in those days wasn't shocked by that. It was kind of his trade mark. Now this did not mean he wasn't putting on a fantastic show. He was! He never missed a word or a note, what it meant was he had zero filter! And he had us in stiches pretty much every time, he'd stop to chat between songs. Well, maybe, halfway through the concert, some dude in the audience, who was probably as drunk as Kris, kept yelling at him, "Where's Rita???" Never mind the concert had never been billed as her being there. Finally after the umpteenth time, of him yelling that, and Kris trying to ignore him, Kris stops mid sentence! He gives the guy a level glare under those magnificent eyebrows, and says, "Rita?? Hell! Rita's pregnant!!!" Well, that shut the guy up, and the rest of us burst into raucous laughter!! 😁 Kris gives us all his famous grin, and goes back to whatever it was he was saying!! So, yep, that's my favorite Kris memory, unless you count every song he sang in the next three concerts of his, I was privileged to attend. And the last of those was during the time when he came back after the Lymes Disease treatment and gave us another two or so magical years, before retiring for good. I love that I got to see him during that time! Lord knows I will love Kris and his talent for the rest of my life. And yes, his two performances at Willie's Birthday party, though I only saw videos, moved me to tears, primarily at seeing his pure joy at being there!!

Kris Kristofferson is the greatest songwriter of our generation. I was a shy kid who didn’t know how to express my feelings. I somehow got a Kris Kristofferson album, and I wore that thing out. I said “l’m going to write a song like that”. Well, almost a thousand songs later, and l haven’t come close. But songwriting is the one thing I love and still do. I wasn’t talented enough to make a living writing, but l won some awards, had 30 songs published, wrote some theme songs for radio shows. But not being good enough to do it for a living means nothing to me now. Songwriting has saved my life and Kris Kristofferson and the honesty that pours from his pen, has been the greatest inspiration to me. When Kris does go to heaven, the world becomes a different place. At least it does to me. I love you Kris Kristofferson.

I’m approaching -all too quickly- my late 60s. I’ve had two challenging careers: military and federal wildlife law enforcement. Watching this well-deserved celebration of Willie’s birthday, I do so sincerely wish that Merle could have been there. And I learned just a few hours ago of the passing of another favorite of mine: Gordon Lightfoot (I did lights and sound at his live concert at New Mexico State’s Pan Am Center in 1980). While I recognize the talent of so many younger performers, across all realms of music and entertainment, I can’t help but mourn the loss of so many that have gone on before them. But with each passing of friends, relatives, and these entertainment giants who played a large part of my younger years, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that I do so tire of death. If I have consolation, it’s that I believe in “something far greater” after this life. And if so, there must be some great parties waiting up ahead! Peace to all, both old and young….all of you….many who have taught me acceptance, and through acceptance and kindness, brought me an inner peace. Peace out, Willie!

All he ever wanted to be was a song writer!!! So, he gave up everything including his family and went to work as a janitor where he was finally discovered by June Carter Cash. June lead him into Johnnies sights and finally he was recognized for "Sunday Morning Comin' Down." The rest is history as his career not only made GREAT MUSIC but also GREAT MOVIES.

I met a young lady who I had seen sing and asked her if she would do some background harmonies. We went out on the patio and rehearsed the song. I asked her to join me at a Party I was singing at and she said yes! She became my steady girlfriend, and then my wife a year later. So, “Loving Her is Easier” was TRUE for me…and a VERY Special Memory. ❤

Kris Kristofferson has been and still is a handsome man. I cry at the thought of him not being with us. Even with the short clip of Willie singing with George Straight (another fine specimen of man) Willie sounds like he's still got that voice we love. Getting old just sucks.

I was fortunate enough to see Kris and his band in January 2016 at The Queens Hall in my home city of Edinburgh. Although almost 80 he did two sets of an hour each and he was awesome. He was just about to do a third encore when his manager came on stage and led him off because he was clearly exhausted! What a legend.

One night in the mid 70's Kris was singing at a club in Raleigh, NC. He sang a song with the refrain "if you don't like Hank Williams, then you can kiss my ass". After the show he was hanging out with the crowd and my friend told him I wanted to tell him something. He came over and asked about it and I told him "I don't like Hank Williams". He took a second or two to realize what I was asking and just cracked up and gave me a huge hug. Maybe the best thing that ever happened to me. Thanks Kris and I'll love you forever.

I got to see Kris perform at Gateshead, England and he was 82. He was on stage for more than an hour and a half. He was amazing and had the audience in the palm of his hand. To see him honouring his friend of so many years was so touching. God bless Kris and Rosanne .Thank you for posting this video.

I remember my Mom and Dad loved country music. They got there music from the radio and great tv shows of their time. Shows like, The Johnny Cash Show, Glenn Campbell Goodtime hour and just like John 5, HeeHaw! I never seen them ever buy a record, that was until this unknown guy that they seen on Johnny's show one night, yes, they actually went out and bought a record album . That record was Kris Kristofferson's debut album! That's my first memory of Kris Kristofferson!

I watched this when it aired, and it brought many tears. I was not a big KK fan, but my mom and dad are, and just thinking of how many years ago that was, where they would play him on the stereo, and I being so young, not paying much attention, but would hear it so many times, to the point I can still sing all the lyrics. Cherish every single moment, wether it seems small or big, because something this SMALL from many years ago, could bring this many BIG tears many many years later.
