You know, radio was a really easy way to do the shows. You'd come in, do a read-through, there'd be a few rehearsals, then you'd come the night of the show and do it in front of the audience and then go home.

One reason I do the live shows - and the monthly speeches at public radio stations - is to remind myself that people hear the show, that it has an audience, that it exists in the world. It's so easy to forget that.
Oh Yeah
(ferry)
Some expression in your eyes
Overtook me by surprise
Where was i how was i to know?
How can we drive to a movie show
When the music is here in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing oh yeah on the radio
And so came to be our song
And so on through all summer long
Day and night drifting into love
Driving you home from a movie show
So in tune to the sounds in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing oh yeah on the radio
Its some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our separate lives
But where am i where can i go?
Driving alone to a movie show
So i turn to the sounds in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
Theres a band playing on the radio
And its drowning the sound of my tears
Theyre playing oh yeah on the radio

Sometimes you don't know what you've got until you put it in front of an audience - and the enthusiasm for the show from the audience has been just incredible.

You're in front of an audience, but you're playing for a camera. There's this huge adrenaline rush, because you know that besides the audience in the studio, there are millions of people watching at home.

Nothin On But The Radio
She looks easy
A real lady
She knows what I need
Shes kinda easy
Shes everything you ever wanted in a girl
Im in love with the way she walks
And Im not the kinda guy who talks
Late at night she gives it everything that shes got
Shes got
Nothin on but the radio
Late at night, thats the only way to go
Nothin on but the radio
She loves dancin
Slow dancin
Walk me away
Sweet romancin
That little girl
She knows how to satisfy man
I love her every way
Tell her what I need
Shell always do ya
And always say please
Oh that lil girl shes got
Shes got
Nothin on but the radio
Nothin on but the radio
When I feel the way
That I feel about you girl
So easy
When Im feelin the way that I do
Youre likely to know
Whoa
She looks easy
A real lady
She knows what I need
Shes kinda easy
Shes everything you ever wanted in a girl
Im in love with the way she walks
And Im not the kinda guy who talks
Late at night she gives it everything that shes got
Shes got
Nothin on but the radio
Late at night, thats the only way to go
Nothin on but the radio

Because even at the age of fifteen, I used to go see all the Broadway shows and feel that they were sentimental, that they were pandering to the audience and trying to manipulate the audience. I had no use for practically any of the shows that were hits.

The Show Must Go On
(carly simon)
Some folks like to stay at home
Some folks like to be alone
So when they finally come out of their nest
Ive got to turn it on
Ive got to be my best
The street may be slick with ice
And im sick with butterflies
And some other girl may be the talk of the town
I could lose my voice
Or i could split my gown
But when im in the spotlight
Its got to be a hot night
Even when im feeling down
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
Ive won some and i have lost
But what i enjoy the most
Is never knowing how the evening will end
Will i be the joke or the comedienne
And when im in the spotlight
Its got to be a hot night
Even when im shivering cold
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
Repeat to end.
Background answers:
Even in a hurricane
Your contact lens goes down the drain
When your agent goes insane
When you can hardly stay awake
Youd rather stay at home and bake
When youve got a tummy-ache
To an audience of one
And you think hes got a gun
When laughing isnt any fun
You want to watch the end of cheers?

I've always been switching around the show to accommodate the audience, and you know it really makes it a lot more fun for me and keeps it fresh so that I'm not complacent with the same show every night and with every audience.

The Radio
There's a long white line stretching out on the road ahead
And there ain't one magazine that I ain't read
I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio
Singing soft and low
Chorus:
We're so far apart
This old highway ain't home
When the heartache starts
I just turn the radio on
There never seems to be time for me and you
That's a price you pay for the life you choose
Tonight's the loneliest night I've ever known
It just goes on and on
Repeat Chorus
It does my heart good to see you shine
So I'll just keep on counting these white lines
I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio
Calling me back home
Repeat Chorus to Fade

The secret of it is to read what you've got in front of you. Don't, if you suspect that something has a double meaning, don't pause. Don't put on a leery vocal expression if you know what I mean on radio. Don't sort of do anything other than read it.

Transmission
Radio, live transmission.
Radio, live transmission.
Listen to the silence, let it ring on.
Eyes, dark grey lenses frightened of the sun.
We would have a fine time living in the night,
Left to blind destruction,
Waiting for our sight.
And we would go on as though nothing was wrong.
And hide from these days we remained all alone.
Staying in the same place, just staying out the time.
Touching from a distance,
Further all the time.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Well I could call out when the going gets tough.
The things that we've learnt are no longer enough.
of the show
And we could dance.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio.

All of the material for The Fine Line was created via improvisation with my partner, but not in front of an audience. We'd continue to refine it in front of an audience based on their responses until it was set and scripted.

Late Night Radio
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the windsong album, and has also been released on the changes album.
Theres lonely hearts in arkansas
Theres truckers in des moines
All there to keep me company in the early morn
A world unknown to daytime
Is forever going on
The airwaves of the nation
Between midnight and the dawn
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
Well I turn the dial
A little bit past one-o-one point two
In time to catch the news
And see whos shooting who
Then I hunt around for old songs
Theyre so good to hear again
To think of how it was
Imagine how it might have been
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
La la la I sing along
cause I never know the words
La la la la la la la la
Id love to call a talk show
But I havent got the nerve
La la la oh oh oh radio
The lord is still my shepherd
But these preachers got to go
This time of night my interest
Lies in u.f.o.s
So I turn the dial a little
Past fifty-six point three
To find myself a lullaby
To rock me off to sleep
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio

Thank God For The Radio
(max d. barnes/robert john jones)
On the wrong end of the highway
When the long night has no end
When theres no one there beside me
til I hold you once again
Thank God for the radio
When Im on the road
When Im far from home
And feelin blue
Thank God for the radio
Playin all night long
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you
Theres a song that we first danced to
And theres a song they played the night we met
And theres a song we first made love to
Thats a song Ill never forget
Thank God for the radio
When Im on the road
When Im far from home
And feelin blue
Thank God for the radio
Playin all night long
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you
Thank God for the radio

Mr. Radio
(written by Roderick Taylor)
Oh, what a sunny day
When they carried the radio home
Bringing him in off the truck
And the dogs wouldn't leave us alone
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company
We listen in a room
Through the miles and miles of night
Deep in the heart of the Bible belt
In the golden radio light
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company
And it's hard days out in the field
The crows in the high tree top
If a man's away from his home all day
His chickens might fall to the fox
Mr. Radio, what can you do about that?
Uh huh
And you can take me down to a river town
Where the citizens dance till dawn
They dance so close it's a sin almost
The way they carry on
Mr. Radio, I never dreamed you could
And it's miles at the careless touch
Of a tired hand in time
When evening fell I heard a strange sell
Dreams that were never mine
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company
You come down here to keep us company

On the dedication line
I wonder if youre listening
To the words that keep me wishing
That one day Ill be kissing you

Happy Days, which we did for 11 years, we did with three cameras in front of a live audience. Very special. We had a party every Friday night. The boys, Ron, Henry, they grew up on that show.
