1. So I take it that AAR is still a float?

2. Steve already has/had a show

It used to called "The Revolution Starts Now," but since AAR is moving away from the "cute" named shows for the most part....

3. Great News!

Amerika 6.0 (The Best We Can Do)

Look at ya
Yeah, take a look in the mirror now tell me what you see
Another satisfied customer in the front of the line
For the American dream
I remember when we were both on the boulevard
Talkin' revolution and singin' the blues
Nowadays letters to the editor and cheatin' on our taxes
Is the best that we can do.

Look around
There's doctors down on Wall Street
Sharpenin' their scalpels and tryin' to cut a deal
Meanwhile, back at the hospital, we got accountants
Playin' God and countin' out the pills
Yeah, I know, that sucks - that your HMO
Ain't doin' what you thought it would do
But everybody's gotta die sometime
And we can't save everybody
That's the best that we can do.

Four score and a hundred and fifty years ago
Our forefathers made us equal as long as we can pay
Yeah, well maybe that wasn't exactly what they was thinkin'
Version six-point-o of the American way
But hey we can just build a great wall
Around the country club
To keep the riff-raff out until the slump is through
I realize that ain't exactly democratic
But it's either them or us
And it's the best we can do.
-- Steve Earle

6. Steve Earle Rocks!!!

I don't know about "cute", but The Revolution Starts Now" is the name of his 2004 cd, loaded with great material like "F*** the FCC", "Condi, Condi" and "Rich Man's War".

:headbang:

8. He used to have an AAR show but it kind of faded away

It was a weekend thing, on around the same time as "Ring of Fire" (Pap/RFK Jr.'s show). Good to hear Earle is coming back (hopefully my local affiliate will carry it, too).
