John Prine

We're seeing him in San Diego on May 19th, and then again here at home in Phoenix in December.  We've seen him many times over the last >30 years, and never miss an opportunity to do so again.  One of the best songwriters of a generation.

Just shows how different tastes are - we saw him a couple of years ago with Iris Dement (my first exposure) and almost had to leave before John came on. To me she has one of the worst voices ever; literally painful to listen to.

Hi Keith,

Iris, you either love her or "don't".  I saw her once, solo, and fell in love that night.  But, I understand those who do not like her.  I'm not one of them.  

What type of music does he do ?

John is coming to the Virginia Theater in Champaign, IL in April.  Great venue and tickets in hand.  I've listened to him since the 70's.  Tremendous!

I first saw and became aware of John at the Philadelphia Folk Festival in the early 70's, a marvelous performer with an infectious personality.  One of those magical moments, been a big fan ever since.
