    I lived in Austin at the time of Blaze making the "tape". Worked the day job with musicians on the tape, jammed with them, remember the look on their faces (John Casner, TDMHMR) when he died. I still have the original tape, still remember the words. Incredible songs and heart.

    A friend sent me a picture the other day of Ethan at a Alt Country bar in my hometown of Houston, they were playing there that night, & I'm like why the hell is Ethan Hawke in Houston on August 27th , well, I find out from other freinds that the release of this movie on Blaze Foley were doing a showing at the Landmark, West Gray, it's the art district of Houston, I lived off W. gray, my Dad lived there during the 60s when he was a bouncer at Country clubs, I digress, so it was really nice that Ethan hung around to check out the music scene here in Houston, cant wait to see this film, Foley reminds me a lot of John Prine with some Townes thrown in. Thanks to Ethan for keeping this music relevant & memorialized.

      It sells the movie to people who have never heard of Blaze. Basically describing him as an unknown song writer that very successful writers really respect. And Hawke is a prick

    Blaze played a lot in a bar i worked in down on the Drag in Austin. He didn’t play a guitar, he hammered it. A big man, he could have his moments late at night when he was lit. Remember when we all heard Blaze was shot over in east austin, killed. Knew a lot of folkies, sad day for all, life goes on.

    Blaze opened many shows for the band I was in, and often called me over the mic to sing harmony on a song or 2. There were MANY Texas songwriters I considered better. Perhaps Blaze was the more ‘cinematic’. RIP.

    No, I am not going insane. I have watched several interviews with Ethan Hawke about his Blaze Foley movie and he consistently pronounces "biopic" as "BUY-oh-pick." I always thought it should be "buy-AH-pick" as in "biography." Turns out, his way is the British way. How do you guys pronounce it?

    • @nathanjohnson3062
      @nathanjohnson3062 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I say it like Hawke does. Bio is a shortened version of biography or biographical and when we shorten it to just bio (not uncommon) the typical pronunciation is "buy-oh" not "buy-ah" or "buy-aw". See American dictionary pronunciation guide: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bio and www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/biopic

      Hawke is the problem with austin today, too many west coasters have moved in a ruined what was a great city. Crime up, homeless up, taxes way up. I have 5 generations buried in that town, i will never move back.
