Re: Heathens Homecoming 2018

Short version: My first Homecoming was last year, and I met a large number of truly fine human beings. Not just in the 40 Watt, but in and around Athens as well. I like to view the standard DBT fan crowd as a very narrow Venn Diagram generally combining "Educated Liberals + Have an active Hunting/F...

Re: Heathens Homecoming 2018

First HC for me. What are the demographics like for attendees? Is there such thing as "typical"? Age, gender, geographic location, etc. And is it safe to assume that most in attendance will know every song performed? Will there be any obnoxious drunk quasi or even pseudo fans screaming for them to ...

Re: Chris Stapleton on SNL

Great performances.

I'm still partial to Sturgill's solo performance of 'Call to Arms' on SNL. I made my 5 and 7 year old watch it and said, "Kids, listen. Look at that! THAT is Rock 'n Roll."

My wife and I have been doing a modified keto diet. I was just looking at the menu for the clocked diner, and dreaming about 3am dinners of burgers (with buns), and fries, and milkshakes (and beer). We've decided to have a "cheat weekend" from the keto thing on Homecoming weekend. I would really li...

Honestly, I'm as mad at the Democrats as the Republicans. The fact that the Government is shut down is stupid. R's had 6 months to get in front of this and they failed. It is basic governance, and they've fundamentally failed. OTOH - The Democrats had 6 months to get in front to the messaging. It's ...

Re: I've yet to see DBT as an opener or "special guests" act

We'll probably go to the Raleigh date but I'm very lukewarm on TTB. Not sure I want to lay out the cash for DBT in an opening slot when the headliner isn't a band I'm really interested in. We'll see. Have you seen TTB live? I think they'll win you over. Beth went with me last year without ever hear...

Wow! That is awesome news. I think Tedeschi Trucks was the best show I saw in 2017. Derek Trucks is simply one of the best living guitar players, and the band is tight. I'm going to have to figure out how to make one of these shows. Red Rocks would be killer.
