Taylor has seen lots of morons who just won't get a brain -- when he was in the mental ward, that is. That's what that song is about.

He's so vain.

OY! Well done!

He's still alive..?
I'm in Asheville now, so I have every erm... opportunity to see one of these, but no thanks.

What demographic are they trying to capture?

Asheville can be pretty liberal/progressive (for NC, anyhow), but the old Southern die-hard Republican folks here probably won't be convinced by a James Taylor concert, and I may be going out on a limb here, but the young people likely don't find it relevant at all...

Nice headline, though.

WIN!

+ 100 for the headline, subby!

hows his friend joe the plumber feel about it?

If I could vote for this headline twice (or once, for that matter), I would.

Great headline! Kudos subby!

Agree with this, but consider what you're surrounded by :)

Holy crap, Henry Fonda is back!

Subby's smugness has made him powerful. Or not.

What demographic are they trying to capture?

anyone who graduated HS in the mid 70's, his "Mud Slide Slim" lp that I had stashed right between Deep Purple and the Allman Brothers was solid "get laid" Gold. JT had the chick tunes down cold.

As for Southern Die-hards I agree, they may not come, consider them free shows for Obama supporters

I'm playing that headline through at Me First and the Gimme Gimmes pace. Goes great with a driving metal backbeat, instead of that wussy folk guitar.

There's a lot of old hippies around Asheville and Boone. Don't know about the rest of the state.

I'm sure McCain knows a lot about flying machines in pieces on the ground.

Is he going to break out Steamroller Blues? Because that worked out real good for the last Democrat who referenced it.

I suspect that it has something to do with being university towns. Granted, that raises a question about why Johnson City (across the stateline in TN) is what it is.

Haven't been to Chapel Hill lately, I take it.

Wow... Former President James Taylor...

I liked him better when he was a long-haired drug-taking musician. He looks old!

About as relevant as Stephen Baldwin rooting for McCain.

Another celebrity noone cares about endorsing a candidate.

Meh.

Every time I see his pic I'm reminded of this guy...

I went to a James Taylor concert about 10 years ago. It was outside. When the sun came out from behind a cloud, the combined reflection from his head and the audience could have generated megawatts of solar energy.

I mean, I'm so damn white I couldn't keep time to a metronome if you held a gun to my head. And an entire amphitheater of unhip, rhythm-challenged, tone-deaf people like me? I was scared.

/If celebrities didn't endorse candidates, how would we know for whom to vote?

Nice job on the headline, subby!

Johnson City just has an unusual amount of born agains and rednecks for a college town.

nice headline, subby but the meter's off

/just sayin'

It's just so heartening to be inspired by self-important celebrities with inflated egos. I'm not worthy.
