Politics aside, what's Jackson Browne up to these days? Probably a stupid question with the world going to down the shitter, but I can't help being curious.

He's actually on tour I think. One of my favorite poet/musicians ever! His last album release is "Downhill from Everywhere." In a recent interview he was asked what things he was doing to keep his music evolving. He said he's just trying to sing on key and make the music sound good! 😂
🕵♂️Well if you must know...
Jackson Browne will perform two shows at The Mountain Winery in Saratoga, CA on September 9th and 10th 2025.

@stephenking.bsky.social please add @booker.senate.gov marathon speech (still going strong 15 hours in) to your feed 🙏… it is no where in the media right now
My favorite part of Stephen King on here is that all his references are from about when Jaws came out. Maybe he’s been busy since 1975. Reminds me of my father in law who says he doesn’t like “this new music” and he’s talking about the Beatles.
Jackson Browne and Daryl Hannah had a long-term relationship that ended in 1992, followed by public speculation and allegations of physical abuse, which Browne denied and later prevailed in a defamation dispute with Fox Television.
He started dating Daryl when she was a teen and he was much older. Joni Mitchell and others believe he did abuse Daryl Hannah, (Mitchell wrote a song about his cruelty). Daryl did not press charges, but she has never said he didn’t do it.
His most recent album, "Downhill From Everywhere," was released in 2024. He's also been involved in various charitable projects, including supporting organizations that aid victims of human trafficking and addiction.
Jackson Browne, Sara Bareilles, Kristin Chenoweth have been added as honorees and performers with Wyclef Jean, for a concert gala in New York for Music Will, which is described as the nation’s largest nonprofit music education program for schools on April 9 at Gotham Hall.
Awwww - I'm traveling to New York on April 23rd - wish I could move it up. Sounds like a wonderful evening - I'm begrudgingly happy for everyone who gets to attend.
“They sell us the President the same way, they sell us our clothes and our cars.
They sell us everything from youth to religion, the same time they sell us our wars.”
That was my first year of college, it was part of just about everyone's collection in my dorm. Sold my vinyl when I moved out west in the 80's but had been re-building a collection until the election, now I'm downsizing and applying for Mexico residency.
Spouse and I had a deal way back in da day. If Stevie Nicks wanted to take him away he had nothing but my support. I had two, Jackson or Andy Garcia. Alas no one came knocking. Booo
Jackson Browne in concert 3 years ago in Salina, Kansas. Incredible—saw him almost 45 years earlier too, and this show was just as good. If you get a chance to see him, DO IT!!!
Considering all that is going on in politics, this seems irrelevant. But, since you have been a radio station owner, I understand why you would post this about a musician.
Sorry to burst everybody’s bubble but he’s frivolously suing his neighbors (my friends) in Santa Cruz county because he’s kind of a joyless privacy prick too. I know. Super talented musician. Generally unlikeable old rich fart. It can happen in the same package. Disconcerting.
He was trying to block access to their parcel (which he knew existed when he purchased his property) and bar the use of a shared access road (which also pre existed his purchase) in the hopes of devaluing their parcel and driving them away. He finally lost I believe. But what a bag of dicks.
Love that song...and loading up afterward. I had the original album where the first song flowed immediately into the second. Unfortunately, it doesn't on my phone and drives me crazy.
When I first met Jackson Browne, it was love at first sight (on my end). I hope he's well and getting ready to join the fight to save this sad country.
Hi Mr. King! Cory Booker is filibustering. Are you missing it? He has been going for 15 HOURS. Just amazing!! I thought you might enjoy it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2utlMxAwtE
I love this one:
“I’m going to find myself a girl, Who can show me what laughter means, And we’ll fill in the colours, In each other’s paint by number dreams.”
Occasional short tours and benefit shows but otherwise taking it easy I think. The first 15 mins of this is politics but after that it's just life and music.
Stephen please write something about this ridiculous point in our history that the trumpeters will be both scared and have an epiphany...is that possible?
He's running on empty ?
He's in a hospital, saying: "Doctor, my eyes."
He's now an Associate Attorney with Lawyers In Love LLC in Tuscon Arizona where he can finally take it easy ?
"You really got me" but, I did pretty good considering I am _not_ a fan of Browne or the Eagles, never bought a record. I saw the Eagles open for Procol Harum early in their career that they didn't have an album yet, only Take it Easy or maybe Witchy Woman on the radio dial.
Hate 'em.
No, sorry to not be predictable or fit your imagery of who I may be-IMO, LP is a Goddess, then/now-But to make you comfortable, I don't like Zevon either, though I do like J.D. Souther/Kunkle/Sklar/Lindley and/and-
I'm just more of a British Rock and Byrds/CSN, Buffalo Springfield/Stills kinda guy.
No need to apologize. My sacrilege comment was attempted humor. I actually don't care for Ronstadt beyond her Stone Poneys days when she sang Nesmith's classic I'm less into the Eagles and JB than I am a fan of Jerry and the "two Bobs". ;)
Well, he'sbeen out walking
He don't do that much talking these days
These days
These days he seems to think a lot
About the things that he forgot to do for you
And all the times he had the chance to
Still doing occasional shows. Here's some blurry YouTube vid of him playing the Jesse Ed Davis tribute show at the Bob Dylan Center in Tulsa in February:
Living with paraplegia means daily challenges. I'm raising funds for an enclosed mobility scooter to boost my independence and improve my quality of life. Every donation truly matters. Your support means the world to me. More details on my GoFundMe. Donating or sharing is great. https://gofund.me/0af928df
In case this wasn't just to tee up lyrical responses...
He has a light touring schedule. He's playing a benefit in NYC in April, a festival in California in May, and 3 two night engagements in California and Washington in September.
Wrote him off after the allegations of physical abuse with Daryl Hannah. Seems like he has just been rewarming all the 70's leftovers for years now any way.

The actual truth is it was an unsubstantiated rumour that Browne prevailed against in a defamation case against Fox Television Studios.
Details available all over the internet…

He came out and called Mitchell nasty, very, very ill, very bad-spirited, embittered, violent, and obsessed.’

Don't waste your precious curiousity on him 🤣🤣🤣

For the pretender
Who started out so young and strong
