Re: Heathens Homecoming 2024

One fun moment from Homecoming that keeps popping back in my head was Patterson joining Paranoid Style onstage for "Stumbling In." Superb song choice and a masterful performance by all involved. I'm storing my memory of that in the same happy headspace as that time Patterson and Sweet Baby Jay colla...

Re: Heathens Homecoming 2024

Turns out Hans Condor was pretty polarizing. If you ask anyone who was up front (as I was), they were fuckin amazing. If you asked anyone who was farther back or by the bar, they were... not so amazing. I was all the way back by the bathrooms, but I know greatness when I see it. Hans Condor fucking...

Re: Who's Everyone Seeing Live?

Caught the Dexateens with Taylor Hollingsworth on stage last night at Saturn in Birmingham. Three guitars was a hell of a lot of fun. I've not been to many shows lately, and my legs felt it last night. I'm gonna have to get in better shape for Homecoming---maybe go stand in my driveway for a few hou...

Re: Wednesday

Wednesday's lead guitarist Jake/MJ Lenderman has some good stuff. Varied sounds with a different vibe than Wednesday---lots of sports references and subtle humor.

I'm digging the "Boat Songs" album, song "TV Dinners" from the "Knockin" EP, and the "Ghost of Your Guitar Solo" album.

RecreationAle is sometimes hard to find in Birmingham, but the Homewood Piggly Wiggly currently has it. Good summer session beer: Low cal, low ABV, good taste and not too expensive.

Re: The Dirty South-Reissue Preorder

FInally listening to this. Sonically it's impressive (drum sound is to die for) but overall I'd question how necessary this release is. The way DBT originally released the album was pretty damn perfect, but I think this is better. TVA, Goode's Field Road and Great Car Dealer War improve the album. ...

Barry Eisler is the author of the John Rain series of thrillers which is among the best series in the genre; truly outstanding.
I'm a big fan of Eisler's and had no idea Amok was out. Thanks for the mention of it, BTB---just placed my order.

Re: Brighter than Creation’s Dark turns fifteen

I got into DBT way later than most of y'all. (First album I waited to be released was English Oceans). I bought Gangstabilly through Go-Go Boots pretty close together and listened to whatever album grabbed me at the time until I learned them all. I had a long drive for a hiking trip and took along B...

Dexateens on Saturday at Mom's Basement in Birmingham. I've heard good things about the bar, but I've never been. Pics online look like this place is way too small for a Dexateens show. For some reason I thought they had “retired” They don't play often. Last night's show at Mom's Basement was glori...

Wow! I haven't seen that name come up in a while. I saw Rigby open for Todd Snider at Zydeco in Birmingham a very long time ago. My best guess is 2002 on Todd's tour promoting "New Connection" .

In for the Maryville show in September. In case anyone needs convincing, it’s the world’s best covered outdoor venue located in a Harley-Davidson dealership that somehow has fantastic sound.
I hope to make that one as well.
