Definitely a great song, and I've always really liked it.
Awesome find, GL! Although I like Beautiful Loser well enough, I'm not sure that it would make my Top 10 list of Seger favorites. Pretty cool that Glenn was the first one to hear it though.
I dreamed once about being his PA in Dublin in 93. Though in my dream I sourced guitar strings rather than toilet paper. Seriously though, how do you GET to be his PA.Quote:

In the US it seems they pick friends to be their PA. Somewhere like Dublin, maybe a friend recommends somebody? I suppose there could be a service or something....
I knew a lady who became a PA for several bands in Italy because she was fluent in both Italian and English, and fairly attractive. The first band liked her and recommended her to other bands, and there you go.
Only problem is the job is temporary, unreliable, and uninsured! But I suppose it's fun to be part of that world, even if you are only supplying toilet paper, lol.
Thanks, FP. I hadn't heard it before.Quote:

Beautiful Loser is also one of my favorite Bob songs. That's cool that Glenn heard it first and I'm so glad he stuck with it and finally finished it!
This is an interview with Jack Tempchin in which he mentions Glenn in the early days: http://www.thedailyaztec.com/2014/04...-take-it-easy/
Thanks for sharing GL!!
