An amazing performance from the first season of The Wire. Johnny is required to attend a Narcotics Anonymous session and Bubs comes along. During the meeting Walon talks about his own experience with drugs. At the time the performance gave me goose bumps and I did not find out until later that Walon is played by one of my favorite artists, alt-country man Steve Earle. Earle has battled his own demons with drugs and addiction and that comes through in his honest performance.

rougyDeath is the ultimate rush.
Tallguy says...A Earle would say:
I went downtown, it was just to ease my pain
I took my pistol and a hundred dollar bill
I had everything I needed to get me killed
EndAllReally inspiring. Even though I'm rolling a joint as I type this.
Have your say...
