You have never heard me advocate for breaking any laws. Period. I understand that a civil society has laws that advance wickedness, yet I am commanded by the bible (Romans 13) to be a good citizen and obey those in authority, just short of idolatry.
Ya know, even on my nights off I go looking for dive bars with live music. Not sure why I care, but crusty old musicians like you and Jeff and Talbot and Smitty and even RGmix are my people.
I went out to The Goat in Dallas twice this week since coming home only Sunday. They have a blues jam every night there, and I'm probably the only "conservative" in the building. So yea, I know my views aren't the mainstream among musicians. It's been that way in almost every band I've played with too.
But as a songwriter (and producer), I've always seen my "job" as influencing society around me. Lennon changed the world, and I'm changing a much smaller world...but it is changing and I'm not going to give up on changing you, too.
OR irritating the sh*t out of you until that happens....
