Pam Tillis Instagram – I’m on the road in Montana and missed posting about Merle Haggard’s birthday yesterday. I had the honor of opening quite a few shows for him, one of which was the first annual UFO festival (and last) in Roswell, NM, which is a whole other story! Here’s a video from 2010 of me singing “Silver Wings” at a festival in Silkeborg, Denmark. Merle said he liked my version better than his. Pretty sure I wasn’t dreaming, but it seems pretty unreal when I look back on that moment. Put on some Hag on today and celebrate the working man’s poet. #countrymusic #merlehaggard #denmark #silverwings
