Spectacular performer. Saw him live 7 or 8 times the past 10 years or so, always hoping it wouldn't be the last time. May he rest in peace.

Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us and we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue
And we'll whistle and go fishin' in the heavens

Hope they don't bury him down in that cold, cold ground...

"Please don't bury me" is my favorite Prine song.

"send my mouth way down south, and kiss my *** good bye"

RIP John Prine. I could listen to him and Nanci Griffith singing The Speed of the Sound of Loneliness for hours.

What in the world's come over you?
What in heaven's name have you done?
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
You're out there runnin' just to be on the run

Very happy I didn't miss him the last time he was in Omaha. You never know when it's going to be your last chance.

"It's a happy enchilada and you think you're gunna drown...."

I love John Prine. Such a bummer. Angel From Montgomery is my absolute favorite song.

I discovered John Prine when I bought a used copy of his Bruised Orange LP just to listen to some new music. Just about wore it out over the next few weeks. RIP, sir.
