Stephen came back on and gave an update on the story! czcams.com/video/QfZgtpyFkl0/video.html

Thx LSP - I look forward to checking that out !
Same damn thing I thought 🤯
LONE STAR!!! I GOTTA STORY FOR YOU!!!! I GOT PICS TO BACK IT UP!!
Ned? Ned Ryerson?! Played with SRV?? Mind... Blown. Amazing stories, well told.
It's Ned Rierson godammit.
Needle nose Ned? Ned the Head?
Phillll?? Neddd?? *Knocks him out* 😂
“Hold me”....runs off
That post punch face turned to the camera is comedy gold. I can't believe the SRV connection!! Mind is blown!!!
Wow! My dad, Cutter Brandenburg, actually went to kimball high school with Mr. Tobolowsky, I’ve seen the yearbook pics! He met Stevie at a young age and helped him
get from show to show. He ended up being Stevie’s road manager until I was born in ‘82 when Texas Flood released. Stevie was signed and it was time to be a dad. Mary Had a Little Lamb is dedicated to me in the album. Thanks for the SRV stories!!! This was awesome!
I didn't know Stevie or your father and I'm sure you already know this. But your dad was an amazing person and he meant the world to Stevie!!!
Thank you Timothy Howard. I grew to understand this fully as I got older. It’s one of those things that made sense the more I experienced in life. I can also say Stevie meant an immeasurable amount to my dad as well. A rare bond they had.
My father was friends with your dad & I got to know Cutter a little a couple years before he passed. I was just thinking of him the other day, what a awesome dude. I'm sure our fathers are rocking out with Stevie now. Peace and love to you and yours ✌
Does your dad have a sister which would be your aunt that went to Kimball?
I got Cutters book. What a great guy !
First of all lets all acknowledge how funny this man is in every comedy he is in. Now lets acknowledge that he played this strange beautiful part on music history, and now as a true storyteller and historian on this podcast. Amazing stuff. This needs to be shared.
Couldn’t have said it better ourselves! 😎
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a Guitar God and the Definition of a Guitar Hero.
"It's mythic." I just became Stephen Tobolowsky's biggest fan. Thank you for sharing this SRV and Jimmie Vaughan story.
I highly recommend his books.
Real genius , that’s exactly how I felt when I witnessed Stevie and double trouble . At the Boathouse , in Norfolk Va . ICONic . Music was coming out of his soul, gave the full monte show , strat hopping on the floor , Wammy bar at total stress point. It was 8 bucks a ticket .
Man am I glad I stumbled across this interview. To me, Stephen Tobolowsky is the Jimmie Vaughan of acting. He adds without distracting. Every line is on point.
Excellent analogy!
I love him in Groundhog Day!!! Such a random thing to find today, I just happened upon an SRV clip and went down the rabbit hole and here I am, and I’m so glad!!
Hat’s off to the interviewer.
It’s rare for the interviewee to be given enough airtime to tell the story without being interrupted.
A great story about the greatest Texas blues man that ever was.
( my opinion only)
RIP Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Thank you for posting.
🇦🇺
Stephen: "I dunno, are you sure you want to hear this boring, dumb old story?"
"Sure"
Stephen: *brilliantly tells a totally captivating, incredibly interesting story full of facts and emotion.
Hah, nice. Awesome video.
Also, the thoughts Stephen shared about what happens when you truly see brilliance for the first time are absolutely spot on.
Perfectly sums this up. ✊
What a great story. Played with SRV. Not to many people can say that. You was with him at his first recording. Then hung out with Jimmy while filming a movie and watched the fabulous t-birds rehearse. And gave a widowed wife a last wish. Way to go. Thanks for the best story of my life.
💪🏼 This comment is going on our Instagram @lonestarplatetx
Thanks for listening!
This was absolutely one of the most amazing stories I've ever heard. I didn't even know Stephen Tobolowsky was a musician. Tears started once he said he saw genius.
This guy articulated things Ive been trying to describe for many years. I was fortunate enough to see Stevie in 87’ and came away from it seeing things differently. Stevie stepped on stage and opened himself up to a channel from somewhere else. He had the physical ability to shape and project things and the whole audience knew there were things greater than us in the universe and there were humans that possessed the ability to get us in contact with them. I understood then what a gift was and how important it was for someone who had a gift to use it and allow people to simply be near them when they did. Im not knocking artists who make music and art and it makes them feel good and it looks good and sounds good to us, they have a place in the world as well. There are a handful of painters, singers, actors and musicians that show us that we are all human and that they are greater. The way it’s described as having us “feel like we are part of it” is truly how we all feel when we get together and discuss how we feel when we heard Stevie.
Well said
Amazing and insightful way to describe your SRV experience.
Props to the host for knowing how to give space to this amazing storyteller.
"Genius has this ability to make you think you are a part of it." Great interview. Thanks Stephen!
I can’t believe how long it took for this story to be heard…and what a fantastic story it is 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Agreed, just found this little gem myself. Subscribed!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
My Dad went to Sunset and graduated in the 40’s. I grew up in Dallas, and when I started listening to Stevie in the 70’s in Austin, I also played his music at the house in Dallas. My Dad loved music, but my tastes weren’t exactly his tastes. When I played Stevie for him AND mentioned that he was from Oak Cliff and apparently lived on a street near where my Dad grew up, Stevie became one of my Dad’s favorites. Those Oak Cliff boys do stick together.
Holy shit...I was totally mesmerized by this story. Incredible interview.
I was born and raised in the same small town as James Byron Dean. And James made a comment shortly before his passing in the horrific car wreck and he said this; "If a Man can be Remembered after he dies, I mean if he can bridge the gap between life and death, then I guess he really was a great man!" In many ways the life of James Dean and SRV were similar, but I can say this; Both James Dean and Stevie Ray Vaughan were Great Men despite the fact that they had so much more to give in their given fields of Entertainment! Life is precious and it doesn't matter who or what you become but to leave behind a legacy like those 2 Men left behind will be Remembered, Respected and Enjoyed until the end of Time!
Amazingly stated - thank you so much for your comment!
I swear Stephen Tobolowsky is coming to us from some other dimensional matrix of life. He's like a human leyline of convergence. And what a storyteller!
I'm from Canada and I was in Austin a few years ago on business, and I looked in the window at Antone's but they were closed at the time, and I walked down to the river and stood with Stevie's statue for a while, just to try to get a little closer to Stevie somehow, and this story is so wonderful. I still remember so many years ago, my brother handing me the cassette tape of Texas Flood and he said "you gotta hear this" and we put it in the cassette player in the old Ford Fairmont we had at the time and I've never been the same since. I'm so glad I stumbled across this video. Thank you.
Great story yourself...🙏🏼
We love everyone adding their own stories in as well.
Beautiful story... He's missed by so many people..
I met Stevie and Double Trouble after a gig and they all signed a shirt for me.
I’ll never forget where I was when I heard of the crash, it felt like part of greatness was gone.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is so missed by all..,just his name brings back the blue's and rock n roll all at once..sadly ,sadly missed .he was a legend and on top of the music world..electric guitar was Stevie's idle and the sound was sensational..a great band and all the repats of drugs and alcohol cleaned up. STEVIE had been clean for about 3 years and sounded better then before..helicopter crash took Dtevie's life that night and there will never be another Stevie Ray Vaughan in this lifetime and a better musician found..can't be no better then this..phenomenal man that played blue' and rock all over the world and people knew Stevie everywhere..truly missed..RIP
That was one of the coolest stories ever. This man is awesome.
🙏🏼
That was powerful. Stevie was most certainly in his ascendancy when we lost him.
SRV's solo on Red White and Blue just shreds. You can really hear what he was to become.
I was born and raised in Oak Cliff and knew both of these guys. They probably don't remember me. Well I know Stevie doesn't, but Stephen was a grade a head of me at Kimball.
I'm jealous Randy! I only got to see him live once! I listen to his music EVERY DAY! First time I saw him play behind his back I lost my mind! GOAT!
I'm so glad this popped up on my feed. Great interview, great story
Unbelievable and historically inspiring stories! Thank you so much for this. It is a rare gem of a collection of stories we have been so privileged to hear!!!!
What an awesome story. When he said should I go on I think I screamed yes.
This was the most incredible interview, so many untold stories came out.
Thanks for watching! Please subscribe for more incredible interviews! 🙏🏼
I thought it was completely credible.
The YT gods shined on me by randomly pointing me to this. What a freaking story.
Great guest! Amazing interview. Thanks for not interrupting him Patrick. ❤ Btw, I was very fortunate to hang with Jimi Hendrix’ Aunt Pearl Brown who lived in Vancouver. She was his favourite relative. He used to come up from Seattle to visit her. The one family member who didn’t have an agenda where he was concerned. One of his guitars was on the wall of Planet Hollywood here in Vancouver. His Aunt Pearl, before she passed away, recorded an album here.Wynton Marsalis came up to accompany her. Pearl was blind. A force of nature!
Wow! Thanks so much for sharing! Glad you enjoyed the interview!
What a surprise of a SRV historical story that has me smiling with a tear in my eye. SRV lives in us to this day an will be tomarrow too. RIP STEVIE SMILING DOWN YOUR IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER! 🎶✌️💓🤠🎶
On my gosh, Stephen Toblowsky has lived a charmed life!
Coolest story EVER... Who knew this great character actor started out as a musician?!! LOVE this story, thanks for sharing!! BTW AWESOME QUOTE: "Genius has this way of making you think you're a part of it" LOVE that!
Amazing quote! Agreed!
This is awesome to listen to, especially for me who is constantly scouring CZcams and the internet looking for SRV content.
Glad we could deliver!
Same here!
Ditto.. LOVED IT!?
I love hearing that because it lets me know that I’m not the only one that is guitar obsessed 24 hours a day :)

“Genius has this ability of making you think you are a part of it.” Mr. Tobolowski, you *are* a part of it and you are also a genius in your own right. I believe the universe put you in that Dallas recording studio and with SRV and in that Memphis studio with Jimmie so you could connect the dots on these three seemingly unrelated stories with humor and humanity. Therein lies the genius of your acting and storytelling. And thank you, Mr. Armstrong, for wanting to hear those stories and giving Mr. Tobolowski the platform to tell them without interference.
Stevie's last show was at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, WI, August 26th, 1990. Helicopter crashed in the early morning hours of Aug 27th. God Bless Stevie Ray Vaughan.
I've watched this over and over again. Yes, Stevie Ray was a genius. But Stephen Tobolowsky is a genius storyteller as well as an amazing actor. Jimmie and Stevie Ray are so fortunate Mr. Tobolowsky happened to be in the studio in Dallas and the diner in Memphis so these stories could be told so beautifully for posterity. Thank you, Mr. Armstrong for giving him this forum to tell those stories to the 150,000-plus people who watched this episode of your podcast.
Wow!
What a great story.
Thank you for sharing, this is so well said.
I would love to hear those early recordings of Stevie.
I've seen him five time's.
Lucky enough to see SRV 6 times - and one of the last shows before the helicopter ride. Jeff Beck & SRV tour. Saw him for FIve DOLLARS at the Ohio State fair two years in a row. He was such a joy live, it was just smiles all around.
I clicked just to read the title, then watched just a a few seconds to see that it really was NED RIERSON! Then i could not stop watching.
Great interview man
I love these stories. So emotional and sincerely told by Stephen. What beautiful memories he has. I was moved to tears as well.
He’s right about seeing genius. I had exactly that same feeling watching SRV for the first time
Who whould have evr known! Thank You for this!!!!!
Wow !!! Such a story !!! And so well told !!! Thanks you ST !!! I and my brother are long time fans of Stevie's. We saw him live @ the Ritz in NYC for the New Years evening concert 1989/1990. It was an open floor setting and we stood gap-jawed and electrified at about 10-15ft from the stage. ---Toward the end of the summer of '90 I jumped in my Toyota with a few possessions and headed to Southern California with plans to make a fresh start. I went by way of Memphis so as to stop at Graceland - were I spent the entire day going from one tour to the next, over and over again. Such a thrill ! I then continued on west and was crossing the Panhandle of Texas when a radio DJ brought out the news of Stevie's death - utterly heartbreaking. The DJ asked all drivers to put on their headlights in memorial which I did as did many others. It was a very solemn day - one I'll always carry with great empathy and sadness. So happy to have had the chance to experience the genius of SRV live. Rock On, Stevie !!!
In 1990, my two good friends and I drove from Northwest Indiana to a small Town called East Troy in Wisconsin! About a 2 1/2 hour drive.... What a great concert! Yes all you jealous fans! I was there! Eric Clapton, His Brother Jimmie, Robert Clay, Buddy Guy..... Sweet home Chicago felt like it lasted an hour... an hour of pure music bliss! Driving home, we were had just got on the 94 heading back home when the news broke.... I had to pull the car over because I was crying... 17 year old man, sobbing like a girl! I play guitar now, and I have a very heavy blues influence because of this man, that concert and that drive home.... Three sad friends driving home at 4 am blinded by tears but happy we just witnessed maybe the greatest guitar playing EVER!
Literally got chills listening to story! OMFG! Funny as hell and somehow managed to get myself verklempt at the same time. Thanks to Stephen and the show soooo much!
This proves what a GLOBAL LEGEND poor Stevie wouldve become had he lived!!! 14! Already got jaws droppin....an being called a GENIUS ....such a shame 😔
Sounds like when Elvis first recorded his 1st song as a teen....an it dawns on Sam Phillips of sun records (?) What a rare talent he was witnessing!
Why are the greats taken too soon...great but sad story, there is audio of a very young SRV age about 15 on youtube...
Great interview 🤟🏼
Just came across this vid. What an amazing story!!! I’ve been a fan and musical admirer of both Stevie and Jimmie since I found blues and blues rock at the age of 19. I appreciate almost all genres of music, the artistic value it adds to the world, and what an artist goes through to create, in some tangible form, what essentially comes from their mind. I had the pleasure of meeting Jimmie in the latter part of 2019 and again in January of 2020 at a little lounge in Austin, TX on south Congress called C-Boys. Both times he was performing in a trio with a more jazzy vibe. Both times, during their break, he was extremely gracious with his time and talked to me for a few minutes. Both times he made sure to ask if I was gonna stick around for the second half. Of course I did. The second time, in January, I mustered up the guts to tell him how much he and his brother influenced some of my playing style as they had done for so many guitarist and songwriters around the world. I thanked him for their contribution in my life in regards to my love for music, guitar playing and the genius of a good riff that sticks in your head and heart. He thanked me, shook my hand, and talked shop with me for a couple more minutes. He was extremely nice and thanked me for coming and supporting small venues like C-Boys, supporting the music scene in Austin, and supporting his music. I noticed his wife was waiting for him at their table so I told him I didn’t want to take up any more of his time during their break. I asked if I could take a pic with him and he smiled and said of course. I shook his hand again and thanked him for his time. He kinda pulled me in and made sure I was staying for the second half. I told him I came to see him and listen to those riffs. He smiled and said “okay, thanks for coming out.” As we say in Texas “He’s good people”. Just a nice guy, still doing what he loves. I planned on seeing him again the next time he played there but COVID ruined that. Anyway, just wanted to share that. I heard a quote from him shortly after his brother’s passing. He said “The world misses his music...I just miss my brother.” The story being told on this vid reminded me of that quote. Since I live in Austin, every now and then I go down to Zilker park for a walk , take a couple minutes at his statue and continue on till the next time.
Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏🏼
I hit CBoys about 3 times a week. Incredible music all a round and seen Jimmy Vaughn a half dozens times. It's a very special place, thankfully 3 blocks from my home.
This is a FANTASTIC story!! Well done by everyone!!!
So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
How did Ned find himself in Stevies presence at such important moments just by chance? What a wild synchronicity. Thanks Mr. Tobolowsky for sharing with us your very interesting experience!!
This is one of the coolest show biz stories that I've ever heard. I've always been a fan of Stephen's work, and also a huge SRV fan, so this is great!
This was such a touching recount of stories and I literally felt the emotions too. I only found this video because tonight I’m suffering from insomnia and so all I could do was listen to music, which ultimately, always leads me to SVR, my favorite guitarist of all time, so, to end this Dickinsesque sentence, I watched an edited version of the VH1 legends episode about Stevie’s life. And to have that personal inside story touch to it was awesome.
Thank you for sharing! That’s often how we all find these CZcams videos. Lol
Hope you get some sleep! 🙌
That was amazing! thank you!
Wow, what an interview!
I just got the chills man .... God Bless you Stevie . SIX STRING DOWN my brother ... play that when I get there !
Thanks for watching!
I love this story. I met Stevie Ray Vaughan at the gorge in George, Washington about a year before we lost him. I had wandered off into the vineyards and found his tour bus. I knocked on the door and asked for Stevie. He came out and talked with me for a bit. I asked him to play Voodoo Chile for me in the concert. He said he couldn't play it for me, but he could play if for everyone. It was the encore. He played Couldn't Stand the Weather, in a rainstorm. What a master. Stephen Tobolowsky is one of the great storytellers of our time. I had no idea he knew SRV, but of course he did. #cultofthehummingbird
Wow! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! Goosebumps. Thank you both for sharing this.
SUPER INTERVIEW 👏👏👏
Wow, what a great vid and interview. Thank you so much for that.
Thanks for listening
Hey podcast host. You did an awesome job not interrupting him. Nicely done!
Thank you! 🙌
thank you for sharing such a great moment in your life and what it was like witnessing Stevie for the first time. his is a tragic story, as mr. Tobolowsky has so masterfully illustrated in his story of meeting and hanging with both Stevie and Jimmy. I love Stevie. if ever there was a blues/ock biography to be told by hollywood, it's Stevie's
This was an amazing video and I'm really happy that I came across it.
Wow! That’s the bar we want to set! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Kimball high school SRS 1981.. we’d go to Austin over the weekend to see a punk band named Joe King Carrasco and the Crowns but most of the time we’d catch his show on 6th street and we’d forget about the band we intended to catch. We always looked out for his shows.
Clapton said that Stevie made folks who had been playing all their lives want to quit. He's amazing. My fav guitarist
Clapton ain't too bad either (he's great and I love his music) but...... SRV is on a different level!
@@brianhaase9612 yes he is
@@brianhaase9612 except Eddie Van Halen would have run circles around Stevie easily.
@@MarshallAmpMan oh I have some sad news for you
@@MarshallAmpMan tapping like a crackhead having a seizure doesn't make you better than the soul that Stevie had. If you're going to suggest a decent guitar player from that era then randy Rhoads would be #1 that dude had some chops. Eddie ain't got shit on randy
Wow! What a story!!!
This is one of the best stories I've ever heard.
Don't know where this came from but when he came to the "crash", I was so overwhelmed with emotion I couldn't even cry.
What a fantastic story. I love this. There's millions of these types of stories held by artists that will never be heard.
I named my Golden Retriever Stevie Ray. I’ll be honest I’ve never heard of this actor in my life but he seems like a nice guy
I,ve watched this a few times now & absolutely love this,abrilliant actor & superb interview,Stevie was a mega talent who was put on this earth to be an amazing human being & an amazing musician,even after all the time that has passed,music was never the same again,never got to see SRV & doule trouble,one of my regrets,R.I.P. SRV 💔💔 love you always man ❤️❤️
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing, amazing.
Ned Ryerson (Steve) was great in Silicon Valley and Down and Out in Hollywood Florida lol. Had no idea he was a Texas boy. We all know SRV and his big bro Jimmy as well as Eric Johnson, another Texas boy. I saw them many times in 1981-84 in Austin and San Marcos while in college. Steve was great in this interview. Glad interviewer let him talk with minimal interrupt. The backstories and his own real time revelations while simultaneously telling a story as a parabolic allegorical teaching tool realizing he was also achieving his self revelation. This intertwined with his childhood friends. His talking through two brothers who had a life changing emotional event. All of which whom have gone on to impact millions with their art. One can argue even in passing, SRV has impacted millions still. Not just us guitar players and musicians. Thanks for the post. Simply amazing story telling.
One of the most poignant sentences I've ever read was out of a SRV compilation set that I have. It was a compilation of outtakes and rare live recordings and the like.
Anyhow, it had a booklet inside and there's a quote from Jimmie in there, "The world misses his music, but I miss my brother."
Stevie played Lake Compounce in CT a bit before the end. I said to myself, ill catch him next time around ... I've spent many many hours trying to learn and channel his style on my guitar and I will continue to do so. Loved hearing you speak of him Steve. Thank you ❤️🤟😎
Really enjoyed this shared memory. Much appreciated.
What a roller coaster ride of a story.
My head.
My heart.
My God.
Fascinating interview. Who would ever think NED RYERSON and SRV💜 had history...
This is funny, fascinating and very sad towards the end... I admit crying 😢. Miss SRV💜.
i will never forget this man's name ever again.
Holy Smokes what a story..... to be tied into those 3 aspects of Stevie's life. Thanks for sharing!
Troy, WI. I was supposed to go but couldn't find a ticket, wound up babysitting for one of my best friends son so she could go. I'll never forget the look on her face when she got home. What a total shame. Luckily I was able to see him 3 times before the crash.
Wow...blown away.
topolowsky tells the story with such reverence for stevie ray that it makes it fun to listen to his admiration in his storytelling ...great vid ...
Great interview and story. Btw, the final concert was at Alpine Valley, WI. Also playing was Buddy Guy, Robert Cray & Jeff Healy as well as Clapton and the brothers Vaughan. I was there the night before and a few of my friends were there that final night.
Eric Clapton doesn’t hold a candle compared to SRV.
Healy wasn't there. it was Stevie, Eric, Jimmie, Buddy and Robert Cray
I read somewhere, that when Jeff heard where SRV died, he said, "I know where that is, we walked around there that weekend." If I can find it, I'll post it.
@@GarrishChristopherRobin777 what can I say, I enjoy and nice hierarchy
Great stories from great lives
What a story! -Thanks for sharing.
Great interview. Loved this.
That was really a great story!! Thanks for sharing!!!
This was lovely. Absolutely lovely. And as was said, mythic in its proportions. I hope I movie is made that does it all justice. I’m glad to have heard the story.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting - happy to hear you enjoyed!
I was at the Alpine Valley concert. I grew up only 12 miles from the concert grounds. It was quite a night.
Incredible interview and life changing if your heart is open. Thank you 🙏🏽
What an amazing session... words cannot describe it...
Another unrelated Stephen Tobolowsky music fact- the band Radiohead is indirectly named after Tobo. While working on the Talking Heads film Real Stories Tobolowsky told David Byrne of his uncanny psychic ability to immediately pick up a lot facts about people he had just met as if he was able to read their brain waves through the air. Byrne wrote the song "Radio Head" about Stephen and in turn the band took its name from this song.
What a great storyteller. Nice work letting him just talk.
Unbelievable interview, I couldn't hold the water back
I really love his acting, he was iconic in some of my favourite HBO shows. Entourage, Silicocn Valley, he's great and often hilarious.
What an incredible clip and story! I was captivated the whole time.
I agree that this was a very good interview, thanks.
🙏🏼 thank u
