Steve Earle - Tell Us The Truth

Steve Earle, Mike Mills, Billy Bragg on the "Tell Us The Truth" Tour 2003

"The truth is the truth. Not just the government's truth or the church's truth or the truth that won't upset the advertisers and stockholders but THE TRUTH and the TRUTH is that when the very institutions that we depend on to inform us and guide us omit any part of the truth for any reason whatsoever then that is called a lie." -- Steve Earle




"National Tour to highlight media democracy and fair trade
Featuring Billy Bragg, Steve Earle, Tom Morello
(The Nightwatchman), Lester Chambers and Boots Riley
November 7 -- 24, 2003

Acclaimed activist/musicians Billy Bragg, The Nightwatchman (Tom Morello) and Lester Chambers of the Chambers Brothers embarked on a thirteen-date Tell us the Truth Tour to perform concerts and raise awareness on current media reform and trade issues. With support from unions, environmental, religious and media reform groups - including the AFL-CIO, Citizens Trade Campaign, Common Cause, Free Press and the Future of Music Coalition - this tour was the most effective challenge to corporate domination of the public discourse in recent history."
