I'm a Repub and still love Steve..I seen him like 4 times over the years.If it was not for him turning to dope he would have been one of the best of all time..Hell he still may be..Keep rocking steveo
@ulfpulf upside down capo 2nd fret....leave the low e string open, becomes sort of dropped e tuning...a steve favourite..(copperhead rd, ellis unit one). Chords are d a and g with bminor bridge
One of my great heroes - I do not hesitate to rank him alongside Bob, Neil, and a very short list of the greatest singer-songwriters of the last fifty years.
Great stuff. But don't give 94.9 any credit they don't deserve. They would never, ever, ever play a Steve Earl single on the air. Halloran does these interview bits on occasion, but Most of them suck. This one was good. But I guarantee you, no S.E. single has ever been played since.
yo geek...where did anyone post on the s.e. video comments any credit to us? if someone had then i could understand your dismay. but i fear that you whining is clouding the reason i posted this in the first place. peeps need to see how amazing this session was/is it has nothing to do with record labels and or singles we do or don't play. so enjoy it for what it is...cool?
Then don't listen to his music. order the IRS to return his taxes. And you get your sad ass over their shooting at arabs so that liberal kids can come home and work normal jobs instead of dying.
Steve is a heroin junky and war activist, we lefties love him, you all can go to the hell of your making.
Yes,I can tell Steve is a tortured soul who could not come to term with so much that's happening in this world.He is constantly in pain & crying inside...that shows in his voice & song lyrics.We love & empathise with Steve.
I feel guys like Steve have a tortured soul shows with his drug use the beautiful voice and songs...he breaks my heart. Best country singer in my opnion...
wow, i will get kicked for this, i know.....i don't share Steve's political views, i feel brave enough to admit that, but i hope i can still post on these sites because i am still a great, great fan.....
Good to see he lost the weight and got off the drugs. Nice video...if you guys haven't heard the Del Mccoury Band & Steve Earle album, go find it, it's wicked.
No ordinary musician, Steve Earle is a very special (musician) and american and shows people in the ireland that you guys are not all junior george dubyas despite what the press want us to think....
He doesn't care about look anyway. He's a modern troubadour, a real poet, «the regular guys official spokesman» The most beautiful spirit that America could produces. Guthrie Soul, Great gibson too! The Real Spirit Of America, open-mindedness and compassion. Terre d'accueil. Qu'on se le dise! C'est aussi ça l'AMERIQUE! Qu'on se le répète, nous sommes libre And keep tellin' ourselves we're free
DAMN!!! He's lost a lot of weight. Hope he's not doing drugs again. I don't think he is but what the fuck do I know. I saw him when I him about 17 years ago in Houston when he was in the midst of a heroin addiction that almost killed him. He was SOO skinny. He looked like a brown haired version of Axl Rose. He was FANTASTIC that night. Just a heroin addict with a guitar and a few songs but damn he killed it.
Steve is a Badass, the real deal
No other musicians have balls like he does
Sellouts the lot. Keep rockin & preachin the truth, Steve
