Oh goodness! I was so happy to see Barry perform in Tulsa!! I was 18 in 1975 and saw Barry- my first concert- at the Lyric theater in OKC.. I made a big poster for this show but found out later I couldn’t bring it inside. But God blessed me! 3 other fans and I got our tickets upgraded and got seats on the floor! Shout out to Sherita, Kelly and Jody-we had a Great time! Love you Barry❤
I never got to see John Kay play live, but I do believe that he is one of the greatest, most talented people ever to walk this earth, and if he would have been born a thousand years ago, we would all still know who he is.
John Kay is a good man and a great rocker. Smart as a whip and he’s got swagger, too. He didn’t get destroyed by drugs and Alchohol like so many others did. He avoided those traps and pitfalls. This song is about Pushers who don’t care what they’re pushing is killing people. Good song. I’m glad Kay’s alive and enjoying his life and still making music. Ted Nugent too! He knew Hendrix who laughed at him when he wouldn’t take drugs. Well, Hendrix has been in his grave for the past 53 years while Nugent is still playing and living. And hunting Wild Game. He’s healthy and eat meat injected with Growth Hormones like you and I do. He didn’t get poisoned like us.
I am 70, bought my first HD when I was 20. Born to Be Wild was my lifestyle until about 30. Lived very hard and very fast. Steppenwolf were mt go to music.
It was a very good show. Nonpoint was awesome, Butcher Babies too. GWAR is always a fun show to see. This was my first time seeing Coal Chamber. And Mudvayne was fantastic.
Mi sembra che il caro Boy G. non abbia piu' nemmeno il fiato per respirare. La voce non c'e. E solo supportato da coristi. Ricordiamocelo com'era negli anni 80.
Saw them in 1971, 1996, and 2003. Each show special. John Kay is a lyrical genius. Good musicians each of them. They did their retirement with class and dignity, not trying to go out and milk money after their announced end date. Thanks for all the great music!
To continue. When I and a friend walked into the bar they had just finished a set. I yelled out play the pusher,I was drunk. John Kay yelled back, you should have walked in 15 seconds ago, we just finished it! We sat at thier table by the side of the stage and had beer's put on their tab all night. The final song was dedicated to me, you guessed it The Pusher. It blew me away. It just goes to show that even though they are a famous band, and musician's, they can also be kind and hold normal conversations. It meant alot to me just to have them notice me.
In addition to the great music, I love how John takes the time to recognize the crew. Don't know many rock stars who would even think about doing that.
That line walking around with tombstonesI in their eyes reminds me of the Crack epidemic of the 80s 90's and the meth and fentenol of today especially if you're live in vancouver were open drugs have taken over in the heart of the city
Ironically these guys sounded the best trippin, true psychedelic rock produced during a time of awakening that will never be surpassed in its wonder. Thank you Steppenwolf for many many hours of listening to your music. I hope there is a rock and roll heaven where we will all meet again.
