Hi guys,

I followed Mark Hayes advice and contacted John's team/record company.

They gave me written permission to perform his music in public.

They are currently deciding if they will allow me to post here.

I have asked for a quoit to do covers of four of his songs and in discussions about a sync license for a video.

They are very present people to do business with.

If all this comes together, I will go to Nashville to a professional studio to record the "Sam Stone" cover. I and a videographer acquaintance will shoot the video here in Miami. It will depict homeless veterans who are known to me and video of the Miami drug scene.

Any proceeds above the production cost will be given to John's estate to do with what they will.

Rest in peace John Prine.

Billy
