I'm late to discover Ryan Adams. I think I saw his name and thought it was Bryan Adams.

I heard this in a shop yesterday and looked it up on youtube by the lyrics. The video is crap visually, apparently some movie with Maggie Gyllenhaal and James Spader. But the song is fantastic, IMHO. The song builds up slow and gets good after the first 2 and a half minutes. The song ends with some of the best noodling ever. How did I miss this?

Oh really, you stood on her momma's porch in 1969?
Not only that, how old is Bryan Adams, really? Was he actually a teenager in 1969?

He handed the guy $30 for the ticket and told him to leave
