Living legend Billy Joe Shaver was found “NOT GUILTY” today for his aggravated assault charges stemming from a shooting outside a bar in Waco, Texas in 2007. The 70 year old Shaver, who is best known for writing the songs that appeared on Waylon Jennings “Honky Tonk Heroes” record and other well known hits such as “Old Chunk of Coal” and “Live Forever,” avoids a lengthy possible jail term.
Billy Joe is currently working on a new release which may be out later this year. Stay tuned here to Americana Roots for more upcoming info on Shaver, including a potential interview soon.
God Bless Billy Joe Shaver….and the state of Texas!!!
