A "good song" & a "hit" are not always the same thing.

Almost never in my opinion.

Eat some Emo dick, Baloo, you pretentious hipster minimalist. I saw him last year. He gave Pimp Junior a drum stick. Did you ever give Pimp Jr. a drum stick? I think not. He's one of the good guys in the business. Are you one of the good guys in the business? I think not.

That Steve Miller only had one good song. The rest were meh.

Watch/listen to that track I posted last page. If you don't at least kinda dig it, I'm not sure what to say.

I saw Steve Miller when I was in high school. He did not give me a drumstick. What a bastard! Why is he only giving drumstciks to the pimp family? Inquiring minds want to know!

I'm sure Steve Miller is a nice guy. It's just that his music sucks. The guys from Rush all seem very nice, too. And I'd rather be puked on by GG Allin than have listen to 2112.

You are pathetic Baloo.
I cant help it if you have not sought the sacred River Alph To walk the caves of ice to break your fast on honeydew and drink the milk of Paradise...like Pimp Jr and I.That shite was arduous.

Stevie Guitar Miller did not write Jet Airliner although he had a hit with it. Paul Pena wrote it.

For those who do not know the SMB outside the greatest hits, you may not like the show. His roots are in blues--he was taught by his father's best man, Les Paul. He claims to have played the rock and roll stuff in the '70's to pay the bills. Not needing the money so much now, he plays what he enjoys--the blues.

He is a fantastic blues musician, and if you go into the show with an open mind, you should be amazed.

Was a big fan of his, prior to the Joker. For a great retrospective of his early stuff, listen the The Anthology album. He has somewhat tried to return to his blues roots with his last two albums, but the still pale by comparison to songs like "Your Saving Grace", "Space Cowboy" and "Going to the Country."



I think you'd really like his shows right now. He plays mostly early stuff and blues the entire time. It's fantastic

He had multiple good songs. Of course these things are subjective which makes your comment moronic
