Willie
Nelson and HELIOS CREED?!?!? So what is it that they have in common you
ask? Well we could point out a few things - for one they're both
musicians, they both share a love of God's Green Herb, and they sure
both have been "on the road again" in many instances, but in this case
I'm talking about a 1990 TV movie called "Pair of Aces." Yes, Helios as
well as Z Sylver were in a scene in the movie, that featured Willie
Nelson... and Kris Kristofferson pops in eventually too! Pretty darn
cool...... Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson pull up to a place that
may resemble a venue that you had seen Helios play in back in the day,
but inside, it's a big biker pool bar..... and the music sounds a bit
like the Meat Puppets to me.... although I could be wrong about that.
Here's the actual synopsis to the movie as it appears on imdb.com:
"A
Texas Ranger has to protect his two daughters as he investigates a
serial killer who is attacking cheerleaders. Meanwhile he finds himself
working with a safe cracker who claims to be innocent of the charges
filed against him."
You can clearly
spot Helios and Z in the scenes, but here's some screen-shots to help
you out before you check out the actual scene itself:

Some Other Comments From Helios About The Movie:
"Another bad Kris and Willie movie Ha. I still laugh when I look at
this. This is me in Bastrop County, Austin, Texas. I was the bad drug
dealer in a biker bar. We were all going to KILL Willie. Then Kris
Kristoffson comes in with a shotgun and saves Willie. Ha!"
