On-Sale Saturday: Merle Haggard, Not Much Else

Er, yeah. Apparently even our local live music venues are still recovering from the holidays, as the only on-sale date of note I could find is Merle Haggard at the Grove of Anaheim on Feb. 5. But as far as solitary announcements, that's pretty good. It's the Hag! Country legend! And his show scheduled for Dec. 4 at the same venue was canceled a couple months ago due to health reasons (lung cancer!), so it's encouraging that the um, haggard, 71-year-old singer is apparently feeling better.

Tickets are $40-$65, and on sale tomorrow, Sat. Jan. 3, at noon.
