Re: Southern Rock Opera Redux

I’m in for St. Lou for now, we’ll see what else may transpire. Not normally a fan of seated shows or VIP folderol, but more than happy to give both a shot for this one.

Re: Heathens Homecoming 2024

The other big surprise was "Wallace." Complete with the vamp about the backup singers all being pregnant and in U of Alabama cheerleader outfits (yes I did) and the audience singalong on Alabamaaaaaaaaa. I'd never caught that one live before and I--and about everyone I was near and I'm sure most fol...

Re: Gone but not forgotten....

Understandably overshadowed by Shane's passing, but Scott "Top-Ten" Kempner passed the same day. A member of the punk/roots pioneers The Dictators and the criminally under-appreciated Del-Lords (probably didn't help that their debut LP was released the same year as the Del Fuegos'). Sure did love bo...

Re: DBT Roots

Among this crowd of sophisticated and knowledgeable DBT listeners I don't think there are any mysteries about DBT's roots and influences from southern rock through punk & indie rock to muscle shoals soul to country. But as always, Elizabeth Nelson has her own unique, well said and insightful take. ...

That was indeed a stellar set of shows. Jay's set was fun and Model Citizen tore it up Saturday night.

I have it on good authority that Steven Duesner, the guy who literally wrote the book on DBT, has an article in the current issue of Uncut magazine about Heathens Homecoming 2023. I was not able to find a way to either read (for free) or order the magazine electronically but I did order a physical ...

I binged Pistol (HULU) over the past few nights. If you have not heard, it's a biopic of the Sex Pistols. It's a little goofy, but fun and entertaining.
I'm really liking it, much to my surprise. Especially the little historical (musical and otherwise) bits and pieces tossed in.

Most ironic headline ever? From the WaPo: Clarence Thomas says he worries respect for institutions is eroding.

I like roundabouts. They ease the stop-start of traffic and reduce congestion. The problem with them has more to do with folks who either don't know how they work or suffer from me-first aggressive driving. they are all over Colorado, and seem to work just fine... there used to be a bunch in S.
