Re: DBT Track # 79 & 131 - The Thanksgiving Filter

Back in the days when I pretended to like my family I could totally relate to this song.

I might listen to it at some point this week, then again, maybe not.

Re: "We've always been a poltical band."

The 4th DBT song that I heard was PPOTM
Goddamn Reagan's in the Whitehouse, and nobody gives a damn
From that moment its been blatantly obvious to me where they stand.

It really surprises me that you still see DBT shows that are only 2/3 to 3/4 full.

To echo what others have said about Cooley rarities, he could put a band together and do a killer solo tour of just forgotten DBT songs that he never plays.

Re: American Band- 9/30/16

Just listened to this for the first time in awhile. Parts of it definitely hold up well. I do find it ironic, though, that Isbell catches heat for "not rocking" anymore while this album continues a trend of DBT's recorded material mellowing out. Yes, there are some rockers on here, but Heat Lightni...

Re: Just an observation...

I feel like this board is overly sensitive about Isbell's new fanbase. Who the fuck cares? Part of the concert experience is coming together with like minded people over the music you all love. There isn't much like minded between the new Isbell crowd and the DBT crowd, so attending a Jason show la...

Re: Will The "The Darkened Flags Tour" Will Be Extended?

I would assume there will be another leg around the Homecoming dates. I suppose eventually the "Darkened Flags" tour will end but really in name only. They tour on a regular basis whether they are truly promoting an album or not. Yeah they'll be back on the road, I don't think they can afford to st...

Charleston, WV, Clay Center Big Mountain Stage, 10/8/17

Anyone going to this show? I couldn't make it to Columbus due to illness so I'm going to try and make this one.

The venue website says the show is from 7-10 with a few openers, so I'm guessing there is a curfew.

Anyone familiar with the venue?

Re: Detroit Feb 3

They were drunk as hell and sloppy as fuck last night.

After Cooley told a heckler to suck his dick, and then proceeded to fuck up English Oceans, I did something I never thought I would do at a Truckers show.

I walked out.

I ain't even mad, just disappointed.
