DESCRIPTION:Activist singer-songwriter Steve Taylor-Ramírez brings his critically 
 acclaimed neo-folk, blues, Latin tunes to headline Berkeley’s Starry 
 Plough Pub on Friday, July 6.  \n\nTaylor-Ramírez 
 (http://www.myspace.com/thestevetaylor) will be joined by the great 
 folk-bluegrass harmonies of Misner & Smith 
 (http://www.myspace.com/misnerandsmith) and the acoustic rock of Drew 
 Harrison (http://www.drewharrison.com), who plays the role of John Lennon 
 in The Sun Kings, the well-known Beatles tribute band.  \n\nTaylor-Ramírez 
 says he hopes his music sounds like “Bill Monroe drinking tequila with 
 Ritchie Valens at a truck stop on the Lost Highway.” In Misner & Smith 
 you’ll hear echoes of Bill Monroe and of Simon & Garfunkel. Drew Harrison 
 sounds nothing like Monroe, but sings of the human condition in a warm, 
 gritty voice that embodies sincerity and truth.\n\nThe details:\n7/06/2007,

 better than that!,” said Taylor-Ramírez.\n\nAbout Steve
