Steve Earle is one of those American-made characters...bigger than life. Of course he's in the music biz. Following in the footsteps of Cash, Dylan, Townes Van Zandt...anyway, he's a funny, colorful guy, writes some purty good songs too...so here's a couple of quotes I read this morning that kind of hit the mark.
First, about the songwriting & recording process (for some reason I can relate): "This is all about how far you want to shine a flashlight inside your own asshole."
And here he is on the wonders of the great big city (NYC): "I need to be able to walk out of my door and see a same-sex, bi-racial couple walking down the street holding hands. That makes me feel safe."
