    I met John at a store down in Leaper Fork Tennessee. I was in a panic I had lost my wallet off my motorcycle. And he filled my gas tank and offered money to get something to eat. I told I will pay you back and he said no need to pay him back. He said pass it on when you see someone in need.

    I discovered John Prine in my late teens, and he totally reformed my entire taste in music. I’m 23 now and playing gigs myself, and I always have a small John Prine tribute portion whenever I play and I play a few songs of his, as a dedication to him. Thanks so much for this.

    Thanks for this interview, Otis. I've been a John Prine fan for 50 years and he seems like a part of my family. I love playing and singing his songs...they are almost hymns at this point. I don't usually get emotional when I hear of a famous person passing away, but John's death was different. There was a strong sense of knowing that the world would be a less kind place without John in it. I've seen Dave play with John and thought that it must be a great gig to get to travel and spend so much time getting to know John. Glad to know that Dave felt the same way. Thanks again, Otis.

    I used to watch Dave play Sunday nights at a cool blues club in Worcester Massachusetts back in the late 80's....an open jam. I was just learning to play bass, and it was always school watching him and the drummer, Billy MacGillivray interact and lay down a real groove. A little bit later I was taking lessons from him. He moved to Nashville not long after that, and at some point I learned he was playing with John, which impressed the hell out of me, as I had become a fan of Prine by then. Even later his name popped up on a couple Todd Snider albums, and Iris Dement. I'm like hey I know this guy! Very grateful that I got the chance to hear and absorb his playing, definitely an influence on me. Thanks Dave, and congratulations on your wonderful career

All my friends got turned on to his music. One friend got nicknamed sour grapes cause he fitted the personality of the person in the song.Brilliant writer and person.

I don’t think love is too strong a ward to describe their symbiotic relationship on stage. Listening to Dave ‘s interview was like that. His love for John and his music is so palpable. You can almost touch it. Would love for you to interview Jason as well. Many thanks.

I remember some weekly music papers writing about his long anticipated show.The night he played he came out on stage and said '' Thanks for waiting so long. It took me a long time to get here, 30 years! That means I'll be staying awhile'' ! They brought the house down for 2 hours. What a night ! All the best, Otis.

    Nice to hear Dave talk about touring with John. As a lifetime fan and guitar player who learned all John's tunes as they came out, I was sort of blown away at a Doc Watson show in San Jose back in 1980 or 81. I was sitting at the bar and this guy sat down next to me... He ordered a beer and I heard a voice that's unmistakable. I looked over and said, "You look just like John Prine." and he said, "Thank God, That's my name!" and we laughed and shared a couple of beers and 20 minutes of joking around and chatting. then he said, "Well, I gotta go play a tune or two with Doc.... See ya!" And that was that. Oh well. I loved all his music, and thought the trio set up was the best of his live shows. Thanks, Otis, and thanks, Dave. Happy New Year guys

I saw Fred and I'm pretty sure he smiled back at me when he noticed me staring. lol. The best concert I ever saw was Prine at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz Ca. Full band... great band. Pretty sure it was the Lost Dogs tour? I think we all floated out of the theater that night high on the music. The last time I saw John was in Fresno. Bought a ticket the night of the show and somehow got the front row, dead center seat. When the encore was over, John came right to the front of the stage, he leaned down and a lucky few of us stood up to shake his hand. I'll never forget it, or him.

    So interesting to hear these stories about music heroes told by those who knew them and worked with them (I was thinking that just as Dave started the Van Morrison story actually!!). I have decided I really am glad I never met some of the folks whose music I love as it probably would have ruined my enjoyment of their music. But John Prine sounds like someone whose music you would love EVEN MORE after meeting him. Thanks for these stories Otis and Dave.

    Anytime we get john prine stories you know something good is coming up. Such a great guy, it seems he surrounded himself with good spirits. Not a single a-hole round him. And some of that kindness spills over his songs and the people who like ‘em. He was a bright lighthouse on this world. Miss him.

    I am so grateful I got to live in the time of John Prine and see him live. Someone once said he was the Mark Twain of our time or something like that, and I believe that accurately states the significance of his impact. He was a giant, but didn’t act like one, and that made me love and respect him even more.

    Saw that trio many times. Some of the best concert memories I have.
    Nice to hear Larry Crane mentioned, I saw him a couple times in the early 90s he was a great player.

    I saw John Prine at the Civic Theater in Akron, Ohio maybe in '87 and Arlo Guthrie also performed. John was great, but as I recall you could shit your eyes and open them 2 minutes later and he waould be in the exact same position, not moving except playing the guitar and singing. Like a fine wine, he just got better with age.

    What a great video …
    I’m a very latecomer to John’s music - and have been looking for inside stories such as this one.
    Thanks so much for pulling it all together!!

    Excellent episode, Dave and Otis! I never tire of hearing John Prine stories. Dave, you and Jason Wilber formed the best backing band John ever had, IMHO.
