Had the good fortune to see him perform outdoors twice. Once at Austin City Limits and once at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. And indoors at the raucous San Francisco Warfield theatre.

Re: John Prine, RIP
Funny, I never knew that he wrote Sam Stone. Now that was a protest song. A hymn to all the returning Vietnam veterans who deserved better. Look it up. Warning, it's sad.
