On Tuesday, May 20, 2014, country stars Jamey Johnson, Jessi Colter, and Shooter Jennings headlined the first annual Full Moon Full Life concert in Austin, Texas. The concert, held at The Backyard Live Oak Amphitheater, was a benefit for the Nikki Mitchell foundation, which is working to aid in the prevention, detection, and cure of pancreatic cancer. The theme of the event was "A Night Of Influence: A Celebration of Waylon Jennings and Hank Cochran. The evening started with a live auction featuring several special items including a guitar autographed by "the red-headed stranger," Mr. Willie Nelson and another autographed by all of the musicians participating in the concert. Joining Johnson, Colter and Jennings were some of their Texas friends, Ray Benson, Lukas Nelson, Paula Nelson, Cody Canada, Waylon Payne and more.
