I performed one of my favourite Hold Steady songs, Stuck Between Stations, as a tribute to the poet it’s about, John Berryman. I also read his poem The Captain’s Song.
It looks like I planned the next poet reading Howl by Alan Ginsberg, Craig Finn’s main inspiration, but that was a coincidence.
I also read a bit of We Call Upon the Author by Nick Cave about Berryman but that wasn’t recorded, and I can’t manage the Brian Wilson bit of John Allyn Smith Sails by Okkervil River so I didn’t try.
I hope you enjoy it.
