- Concert Features Band Credited With Some of the Most Memorable Anthems of Its Generation - STEVE MILLER BAND: IN FROM CHICAGO, airing as part of the June 2008 pledge drive (check local listings) on PBS, features a band that is synonymous with classic rock. The Steve Miller Band makes music that is timeless and inspirational and just plain rocks. This concert -- shot in high definition over two nights in July 2007 at Chicago's Ravinia Theatre -- proves it.
With almost 40 years of history and hits behind them, the band -- Steve Miller, Norton Buffalo, Gordy Knudtson, Kenny Lee Lewis, Billy Peterson and Joseph Wooten -- has churned out some of the greatest and most memorable anthems of their generation. Songs like "Fly Like an Eagle," "Rock'n Me" and "Take the Money and Run" still sound fresh today and continue to turn young fans on to the magic of the band's sound. With more than 25 million albums sold, numerous number-one hits that are ubiquitous on classic rock radio stations, and annual sold-out headlining tours nationwide, Steve Miller Band is as vital today as ever. In April 2008, Steve Miller was presented with the prestigious ASCAP Golden Note Award, presented to songwriters, composers and artists who have achieved extraordinary career milestones.
