Biography:
Mischief Brew was an anarchist folk-punk band. A wicked concoction by Erik Petersen – a musical feast falling somewhere between the categories of pirate punk, Celtic folk, gypsy swing, devilish jazz, American olde-tyme and country. It’s good music to stomp, kick, pogo, jitterbug, waltz, drink, twist and shout to – whether the performance is solo acoustic or with a backing band of accordion, drums, and mandolin.
Erik started making music at a young age

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This definitely isn't perfect but it sounds pretty close to me. I would be happy to make
edits if folks would like to help out. I'll add the intro and actually fill in the
chords for all of the verses when I'm at a computer instead of mobile.

Well once upon a time this town had a name
Em. G A. Em
built the girders for the buildings that you climb everyday
C. Em. G. Em
but the well went dry and the crops all died
Em. G. A Em
now there ain't much to show you but a highway sign
C. Bm7(?) Em
but i swear to that statue in the square
G. C
that there used to be something there
Bm7. G. Em
but now there ain't no jobs in steel town
Em*-
not anymore
G. Em
no jobs in steel town
Em*
no not anymore
Same as 1st part:
well business man in business suit
he used lots of big words like economic and boom
theres tons of waste that needs a place
well we've got the money if you've got the space
and besides you need to be revitalized
and your workers need 9 to 5's
and hey its good for jobs in steel town
not like before
more jobs in steel town
no not like before
Same pattern...
well it once was steel now its iron bars
they need food spooners janitors and prison guards
and they look out
and i look in
sometimes I forget who the prisoner is
but its fine
'cause their numbers are on the rise
bad bad guys got another side
and hey its good for jobs in steeltown
for the working and poor
more in jobs in steeltown
for the working and poor
Em G Em G x2
Em. G. Em G
from wall street to main street
Em. G. Em G
to the edge of your name street
Em. G. Em. G
try and connect the dots and see
Em*
we all live on the same street
well the days gonna come when the well goes dry
the executives'll pack up and say good bye
and they'll smile and wave
and we'll say wait
you forgot your pile of toxic waste
hey we got families to raise
this is where i've got to plant my grave
but no there ain't no jobs no there ain't no jobs in steeltown
no not anymore
no jobs in steel town
just like before
no jobs in steel town
for the working and poor
no jobs in steel town
no not anymore
no jobs in steel town
