went to a bruce springsteen concert at the L A coliseum. during the born in the usa tour and it was a great show,after he did his encore and the lights my girlfriend and i stayed in our seats waiting for the parking lot to clear outsome.well about 45 minutes later POOF the lights went back out and bruce and the E street band came back and said they felt like playing just a little bit longer and we hope you wont mind, My girlfriend and I moved up to 4th row center stage and watched them play for another hour and a half, every time i play this song it reminds me of a generation of kids and musicians who just loved the music GOD BLESS AMERICA

I can't hear this without thinking of my Husband. He was an electrical, audio engineer and production and auditorium manager for "Little Nashville Opry," in Nashville, Indiana. But he freelanced with many stars...in many venues, all over the USA. He loved Jackson Brown and this song... Cancer is a horrible thing!

Grew up to this song! The best song ever! Thanks to my mom (R.I.P. Mary Wood) Who was a singer, writer, teacher & musician. Its down to earth, most truthful song for all of many people who were overlooked in music industry, roadies, semi drivers, lightmen, electrical, All the ones setting up and down a concert to me are considered to be a part of music industry...my bro in law (R.I.P. Allen Hake) did the same and even played bkup if someone couldnt play ( 70s-90s)...He met Jackson Brown!(Among many many others)...I was sooo jealous!!! 💞

I first heard Jackson Browne in the fall of 1974 in my first semester in college. He has been my favorite performer, singer/songwriter, and poet ever since. He is a sage and storyteller for our generation and an avenue into the meaning of our existence, losses and wins, and political perspectives. I have nothing but love and well-wishes for this genius, poet and pied-piper of the spirit. We all will be forever grateful...

WE HAD REAL MUSIC SO HAPPY NOT A KID TODAY I JUST PRAY FOR THIS WORLD TODAY.

Best concert I've ever seen, Jackson Brown and Linda Ronstadt, at San Jose Center for the Performing Arts...1974. At the end both bands came back on stage and just jammed. Nobody left...don't think anyone even sat down. Never forget it!

The best tribute to the “Roady”. A hard, thankless job. Like Mark Knopler’s tribute to the armed services in “Brothers in Arms”.

My college buddy’s favorite artist was Jackson Browne. Mike had a heart attack and passed away about 9 or 10 years ago at 54. RIP brother.

1972. I was a junior in HS. Good times. Love Jackson Browne.

At the precise moment this song was being played and recorded, I was standing next to my father, my Best Man, about to be married in the chapel of the Pines Presbyterian Church in Houston, Texas. When the "Running On Empty" album came out in 1978, I found that out by reading the liner notes.

Music genius 😎🇺🇸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍

Omaha, Nebraska this song came out, gives a body chills still

I grew up listening to and loving this. It never will get old for me - almost 52 years and counting :-)

Did that roadie job back in the late 60’s and 70’s driving the 18 wheeler for several top names in rock! Mr. J B just to name one ! This song is pure truth, and pure soulful release!

Take it from a guitarist of 59 years, with 35 years worth of weekend playing and amp moving ... buy yourself a Teeter inversion table and bring comfort and decompression to your back before you can't walk, like I can't.

did some local roadie work, we came in to help the big boys do their job and keep the show going. I use to sing this when we started to load out all the time. Always got a smile, sometimes even a good laugh.

Went to a Jackson Browne concert in Baton Rouge early 70's. I can still visualize them preforming this song when I hear it. The keyboard guy sat quietly all night until he opened his mouth on this one. The audience exploded.

When Iam in my youth this is my favorite now at 55 still my favorite

Another way to think about those lyrics is young kids working for a low wage in a job that gets them close to the performers, watch the shows for free and have some fun. This was likely a temporary job for most people. Who makes a career out a being a Roadie? Get real.

Love it, sent to my son who is adopting a dog named roadie, he's too young to know what a roadie was.....I'm old.

" Very Special Sounds and Great Autor and Composer ". .. So' Good ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍✌👌👏👋

From “Running on Empty” I also liked “Shaky Town” and “Rosie” from that clàssic concept album., besides the big hits.

Jackson Brown has been my hero for Alll these Years!

Jackson and Eric Clapton are the two artist's I grew up with in the seventies, but I never got to see them live. 😢 I pray that they take the Narrow Road, cause I sure would like to see them at Home 🙏 Viva Cristo Rey 💪🙏

Melancholy....that's what I feel at the start...and then....Stay. Touching? In a way I guess. Jackson Brown as a balladeer? Telling us a story....letting us in on what's it like....the highs and lows....People stay just a little bit longer....let us reach you....and please...reach us. Symbiosis...a coming together in a way that only performers and audiences understand. Maybe that is the perfect moment in time. Thanks Jackson.

Wow, I agree about the video, absolutely brilliant! Thank you! I recall the 60s, playing drums, going from place to place, not in the same league as Jackson, and always in our own transport, but the message was exactly the same then as it is now. The playing time was what it was all about and was just too darned short! I was always too nervous to go on, but then never enjoyed finishing, we could've played all night back then. Car was always packed up the previous night so we were ready to go, and sometimes we'd travel a fair way but we were never late except when we got home! Great song(s).

Jackson Browne thought if someone else and not himself when he wrote this song. If it wasn't for the roadie's and the people he would not be were he is today. Thank you Jackson for all the great songs you have. They hold a special place in my HEART. KEEP ON SINGING.

The best of ever

I was 20 when this song came out and a member of the us navy. My buddy, Fred Chaney and I, would drive down the road in Charleston, sc listening and singing along. Very few worries. To be young and carefree, again. But I guess that’s the secret to life: in our youth we don’t realize just how fleeting, fast, and short this life truly is.

Simpler times wish we had more of them now!

Jackson, Once again you brought a smile to my heart Thanks for being the story teller that left a forever a long long long time ago ❤

This song bring back memory from the late 70's when I was working as a busboy for a minimum wage of $2.25/hour in a restaurant at a truck stop in South Dakota. It was playing on the jukebox. Man, I miss those good old days where America was once a great place to live.

From morocco. We remember this song and Jackson brown in my city Rabat. It s good time 77 year to 87.

Tears in my eyes. I miss a lot of live concerts 2020.🎸🙋‍♀️🎸

I saw them in concert in LA in 1980. This was by far my favorite song!

A truly magnificent song from a time gone by. A time of innocence which will never return.

My brother in law drove semi truck for rock stars all over the nation. Still have tickets to Steve Winwood and his show. We went backstage after concert and met he and his band. Treated like we were royalty!

This is the guy that started all that awesome West Coast music way back in the early 70's, he showed them all how to do it including Linda Ronstadt who in turn practically put together the Eagle's herself, she told Henley and Frey that if they wanted to start a band they would be needing Randy Meissner on bass and a guy named Bernie Leadon, who was the bands first lead guitarist, nice work Jackson and Linda, great inspiration for alot of those up and comers.

So much soul in motion deep expression to the limit, awesome

remember-back in 77/78--if you didnt have the Album, you didn't hear this song....

Thank God for this man, this voice, this talent .... for music anyway 🌷❣🔥❗💞

You are an artist that cannot be replaced dont ever leave us

Spent almost 2 decades in the San Francisco music scene at the best time, 1967-1985, as a band manager and live audio engineer (I just turned 76 and hate that I can't mix anymore because my high-end hearing is gone). I remember when this song came out, listening to it on FM while repairing electronic equipment in my shop. The song says what it's really like, so I loved it immediately. The arrangement and performance were just outstanding! This is an absolute favorite of mine. The photo montage was excellent, BTW, conveying very well what a live show was like behind the scenes.

the load-out....... since the late seventies!.........nothing beats!

Just beautiful, so much feeling❤️👍✅👏
