Best song about being a touring musician?

[hbelkins]

Chicago "Together Again"  from Chicago X.

"Scrapbook" off the same album is probably a better example.

[Hot Rod Hootenanny]

A more modern take on touring by singer-songwriter type. In this case, Patrick Sweany's "Working for You."

I enjoy the Metallica version of Turn the Page more than I like the original.  I also enjoy Metallica more than I do Bob Seger, but a couple of his songs are all right.

Hey, hey...no one talks shit about Bob Seger.

Metallica is great, though.

Hetfield's growl does add a certain something to it. A few seasons back, one of the White Sox used to use that cover as his walkout music.

You want a Metallica cover that's better than the original, you should listen to their cover of Tuesday's Gone.

Tuesday's Gone is another excellent cover by Metallica.

Were those all on one album? Metallica introduced me to "Whiskey in a Jar," but I liked Thin Lizzy's version better.

The Whiskey in the Jar cover was for a movie soundtrack, I don't remember which one.

Ah, thanks. BTW, this isn't the easiest forum to quote other posts in. I often stick my response in the middle.

Too, I'm still learning the ropes re when to digress and when not to, best topics to stir up discussion, et cetera. Condiments seem popular. I've seen two threads on them in the two months I've been really active. Department stores are relatively hot. History of gasoline retailing, not so much.
