Michael Penn "You Know How" from Mr. Hollywood Jr., 1947 Live at Café Montmartre Madison, WI Apr 16, 2005

Besides stopping to tune all the time, Penn spent almost as much time talking about his songs as playing them, VH1 Storytellers-style. I included this tune on last year's DVD without the minute-and-a-half-long introduction, but I've restored it here so you can see what I'm talking about. Before launching into this new song, he kind of rambles on about his obsession with 1947 (which he mentioned several times), George W. Bush (also a couple times) and an ex-girlfriend. I really don't get at all how it related to the song, which is pretty good.
