Prior to my purchase of August & Everything After my music collection was full of 80's hair band music (some of it the worst of the worst: White Snake, Warrant, yes I was lost). I heard Mr. Jones on the radio and it sounded like nothing else on mainstream radio, I had to have it and more of that type of music- I was fourteen at the time and didn't know a damn thing about the kind of music that would really speak to me... I remember the day I bought August & Everything After. I…

Dear Adam,  As a long time fan, I've only recently discovered your online "presence." This last week or so, I have been listening to interviews and looking up music from live shows that I never even knew existed.  Its been wonderful.

That being said, I was saddened to hear the news today that Amy Winehouse died.  When I heard the news, I thought of you and your struggles with fame and mental illness.  It struck me that fame is such a catch22.  Its something (in your line of…

Why can't i find any tour dates on this website, but Adam is saying stuff about Ojai etc.?

I'm stuck on 19 concerts seen, want to get into the 20's!

So I thought I would finally write about this record.

Great Kasey Anderson cover of "The Rescue Blues". Ya know, I sang the bass in The Gospel Quartet on the original track on GOLD. We were out all nite the nite before. I was drinking & smoking up a storm. The next day when we got to the studio, my voice went nowhere but low. Strangely, there was also no sign of the guy who was s'posed to sing bass so I said "Um...I will volunteer to sing bass".  2…
