My truest introduction to John Prine was cruising in an early 80’s Chevy van with no windows from Oregon to Montana with my brother and my father. Lost Dogs + Mixed Blessings was one of maybe 3 CDs we had for that 1,000 mile (one-way) round trip, and we never got tired of it. I believe that was the summer of 2001. In 2008, I had just started playing music live and my mother had taken me and two of my cousins to see John Prine perform at the Arlene Schnitzer Hall. It was inspiring to say the least. I bought an @ohboyrecords / @john_prine t-shirt. Little did I know that later in the summer, as I was wearing that t-shirt, I would have 3 different men on 3 different occasions corner me at a gas station or a market, point at my chest and practically yell “That man saved my life!!” Then smile and walk away while uttering “you’ll be okay if you listen to John”. The second time this happened was a few weeks later and I was a little baffled at the déjà vu. The third time was a few day after. I received the message. This man had touched people life’s in a tremendous way through music, poetry, and above those, honesty. I wanted to be like that. Thank you John for everything. And in this particular time of my life, the mustache and soul patch combo. Ever other time I sit down to learn a new song it’s one of yours.

Getting this #pedalsteel straightened out, decided to call in the pro.

When fixing espresso machines just isn’t enough. Got this thing running after 12 years of sitting in an attic. #galaga quarters are worth so much more now.

I sing songs and avoid telling jokes. Yours truly 9•27•19 from 6 pm - 8 pm @anvilhotel

Mmm.. #mysnakerivercup

Come on down to the @anvilhotel and I’ll sing you a song. Or like 30. This Sunday 9/8/19 from 2pm till 4pm. Till then, - Foster Oren Haney
