RIP Kris Kristofferson
#1

He lived many years in Hana, looking east across the Pacific toward Big Island.

They bought the high school computers, wrote checks for fundraisers,” he confides.

While Kris may never return to touring around the world, he often performs with local musicians at unannounced shows on the island. “Tourists would do a double-take,” reports local journalist Tad Bartimus. “I once watched a fellow off a tour bus stare at Kris for 10 minutes, then turn to his wife and say, ‘Naw, that’s not him. What would he be doing out here in this wilderness?’ ”
