I've never heard of this guy. Is there anybody here who considered themselves a fan of his.

YUP, seen him twice.

This is worse than when Neil Young toured with Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, And Blind Melon!

I may still keep Earle's CD's to remember what he WAS.

Nothing But A Child
(Steve Earle)

Once upon a time in a far off land
Wise men saw a sign and set out aross the sand
Songs of praise to sing, they travelled day and night
Precious gifts to bring, guided by the light
They chased a brand new star, ever towards the west
Across the mountains far, but when it came to rest
They scarce believed their eyes, they'd come so many miles
And the miracle they prized was nothing but a child

Nothing but a child could wash these tears away
Or guide a weary world into the light of day
And nothing but a child could help erase these miles
So once again we all can be children for awhile

Now all around the world, in every Iittle town
Everyday is heard a precious little sound
And every mother kind and every father proud
Looks down in awe to find another chance allowed


Bummer, another of my favorites!

Was he once a patriotic musician?
