The Steve Miller Band has announced its full spring and summer itinerary, kicking it's 23-date tour off on May 21st in Henderson, Nevada and winding things down on August 8th in West Allis, Wisconsin. Fans are in for a treat when Peter Frampton teams up with Miller for a special, double bill on July 30th in Alpharetta, Georgia and July 31st in Orange Beach, Alabama. Miller says that there's no great science as to why his music still receives so much radio airplay and crowd reaction in concert.
Although Miller is considered a world-class blues guitarist, he says that it all come down to the songs: [ Click to listen if you have a backstage pass] "I think the reason my songs are still around is that they're simple on the first blush, they seem to be fairly simple tunes. There's a lot of harmony, a lot of harmony singing parts, and then when you go through the layers of the lyrics, they have meaning to people. And I think the main thing is that they're positive lyrics (laughs) and people like to sing."
