I watched the Steve Miller Band at Eastern Washington State College, in a small Gymnasium in the Early 70's, before he became a Big Name! It was a Small venue, and a Great time in my youth! 👍 To this Day, I'm trying to figure out What the "Pompatus of Love" is! 😂

[@Gerrys-Channel]

Great talent. So many great songs.

[@mikecarter4551]

Love Steve Miller band great live still brings it today

[@michellejohnson2583]

My favorite was watching Steve sing “Fly Like an Eagle” opening for The Eagles!

[@joanneganon7157]

Thank you Dan and Steve! JO JO IN VT 💞

[@lindatober9580]

I saw him last weekend, opened for Journey. Wonderful!

[@MaxStax1]

I'm a midnight toker. 😎

[@Lybertarian]

I sure don’t want to hurt no one!

[@travisreynoldsmusic]

Prince and Michael addressed these issue a thousand times. Steve was pimped just like soooo many others!!!

[@gustavomendieta]

My dog always growls when he hears the guitar part that sounds funny (I'm sure you know which one) 😂😂😂

I saw Steve early on at the Palladium in LA. They didnt even have chairs, you sat on the floor. Steve started out with a loyal following and played pretty much hard core stoner blues. he then became more of a top 40 guy and thats where he made his money.

I wore the grooves off of that vinyl as a 14 year old.

[@Tyler-xd9rb]

"The Joker." The song the youngsters always think you're talking about when you bring up "Space Cowboy."

[@Lybertarian]

Im a space cowboy I bet you weren’t ready for that Im a space cowboy Im sure, you know where its at Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Wondering if this interview was in 2024?

[@speed6725]

No. Somewhere around 2018 or 19 maybe.

[@kimberlyfaluoticovantassel2337]

😊 I WAS a girl my Lord....slow en down to take a look at HIM 😍🤩🎼🎶

[@alisonfaulkner47]

The most boring act I’ve ever seen live. Great on radio but not live.

[@magneto7930]

Interesting. Having never seen them, I got the same impression. But, just like most people, I bought Fly Like an Eagle and Book of Dreams back in the day. Both great albums!

[@ms.tep_]

Seen him with Peter Frampton in June of 2018 and both Steve and Peter were AWESOME!

[@tomkipp3372]

Saw him last summer in 100+ degree heat and thought he was awesome

[@savagestan2543]

Awesome, glad you enjoyed his show. The person who thought Steve Miller's show was boring, may have grown up with video tv. Truth is, not all concerts put on a "Big Show", because most musicians are focusing on playing and singing. Even The Beatles weren't really a "show" band. 🍏😀@@tomkipp3372
