I think I read somewhere that John Prine used to refer to Jason as "Mr. Shires."

Man, this WTF interview with Prine is great. The story about Dylan is fucking hilarious.

Last night I had a dream I was doing something else but then I had to go to John Prine's house.
So I go in and he's performing a song so I be polite and walk down amongst the audience and it's like walking down a church aisle away from the altar and while I'm walking it's then that I realize that omg, John died didn't he, so I'm walking down crying and everybody that I am singly walking past is looking at me and they are crying too.
It was such an emotional thing.
Then I left and did something else but then I had to go back to John's house and so I did, but this time it was just John who was there and he kissed me on the cheek and said "hi knee tunes" (but he said my name)
The song he was playing during the first part of the dream was hello in there but especially this part "Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger , rivers grow wilder every day, but old people just grow lonesome..."
