Willie Nelson 4th of July Pic-Nic 1996 Crew Tee | Mike Ponczek's Closet
An original, new/unworn Willie Nelson Annual 4th of July Pic-Nic 1996 crew shirt from the personal collection of SHOWCO sound engineer Mike "Dr. Funk" Ponczek.
The 1996 Picnic was held in Luckenbach, Texas — one of the most storied editions of the festival — drawing fans to the iconic grounds during the Years of Luckenbach era (1995–1999). The bill featured a landmark performance by Waylon Jennings singing "Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)" on the very soil the song immortalized, alongside Leon Russell, Robert Earl Keen, and Asleep at the Wheel.
This is a genuine, never-worn crew shirt pulled straight from Mike's personal archive — verified provenance, one of a kind. Also available from the same event: a played/used guitar pick and an original laminate, both listed in Mike Ponczek's Closet.
