The DBT family lost a crew member today. It's with a heavy heart I write that Newt passed away today. For those of you who didn't know Newt, he had been running sound and was most recently the guitar tech. Our condolences, love and hugs to the entire DBT family. https://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a5...

Yep, UR and I will be there, as well as PA Heathen & her hubby. Looking forward to it!

Happy Birthday! Have a great day!

Lee Bains ain't chopped liver though. Best live band playing IMHO.

Shit I'm extremely happy for The Glory Fires.

Agreed! I really hope this slot gives them some well deserved attention.

This show closer was terrific. I hope it gets added to the rawk show rotation. Bennie and the Jets was a lot of fun, too. With all due respect to Patterson, I'd love to hear these 2 songs with Jay on lead vocals. I think these would be right in his wheel house.

Looking forward to Jay's album release show at the 40 Watt next Friday. Figured it was time for a thread about it on here.

The show last night was astounding. The set list was ridiculous. The sound was perfect. The guys were having so much fun. Both Patterson & Cooley were in storyteller mode. At the start of the show Cooley said he normally doesn't worry too much about the position of his mic but that last night he wan...

Good point!

I don't see this as much of a complication. I would assume Cooley and EZB spend the better parts of a day commuting to Athens for band stuff. Now Patterson will too. He'll just be commuting by plane. Matt Patton is also commuting, coming from MS to Athens. Congrats to Patterson and family on the up...

Figured it was time to start a thread for this show. Hope to see some of you there!

I was at this show and loved the new song. Granted, I couldn't quite catch the lyrics at the time, but I knew it was a rocker at least. So glad somebody taped this. Can't wait to see what the official lyrics are, but so far, so great!

Happy Belated Birthday!

I can't think of a single bad DBT show. I've seen them when they don't have their normal energy, when things were starting to break down with the personal relationships, but even at those shows, they weren't bad. I think Patterson once said that they try to play each show as if it were their last. I...

Change of plans. Going to Scotland Yard Pub in a little while. Figuring Dinosaur will be too crowded due to remnants of the St. Patty's Day parade crazies.

What a great night! I don't think DBT is capable of playing anything but stellar every night. I don't know how they keep that pace up, it's amazing. I was impressed with Tarrytown's crowd. We asked the security people if we could stand next to the stage for the show, or if we could stand at our seat...

It sounds like folks are meeting up here before the show: Horsefeathers: great burgers here. 5 mins walk north on broadway http://www.horsefeathersny.com All are welcome to come. We'll be getting there at different times, but sounds like the first wave of folks will be there between 5 & 6, depending...

I think it is something they play by ear. I think we started out standing at our seats but at some point swarmed the stage. We took our cue from the ushers & eased into it. We'll see what happens this time.

I don't know if anything I can write will do justice to what we experienced last night. It was out of this world! 2 Daughters as the first Patterson song of the night? Marry Me 3 songs in? After that, you could almost see the wheels turning in Patterson's mind, ok, it's going to be that kind of nigh...

Great show! High energy & fun. First in a very long time where we didn't know anyone in the crowd. Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love was a nice surprise. Tonight's The Night dedicated to former DBT crew member & Camp Amp graduate (he played at the 2011 Homecoming), Phil Carpenter. He passed away sudd...

Sounds like we'll have a fun group! Safe travels, everyone, and see you at the RAWK show!

Getting really close now. Is anybody joining UR and I for this one?

Nuci's also presented us with a gold record. It is hanging on the wall, one record away from REM's. So proud of everyone for this monumental achievement. Thank you! When we presented Nuci's with our check, Becca & Liam Rudin joined us along with Patterson, Jay & Matt Patton. There are pictur...

Agree with Tom. Company I Keep & Do it Yourself would be cool. Epic show. One of the best ever! Cooley wore a shirt advertising a food truck in Austin called Mrs. P's Electric Cock. A hilarious moment was when Cooley reached for the acoustic for LTBR & nearly played it. He looked like he cou...

Today's the day! The auction starts at 4:30 & ends at 6:30. Be there!

Today's the day! Noon to 5 at Transmetropolitan near Wuxtry

Jay's show tonight was great, as was his band. Make sure if you're in town on Wed to go see Dirty Paul's band Pilgrim at Flicker. m In other news, Ansley Cooley is hosting a Neil's Yard Remedies organic skincare party on Thurs at 1:00 pm in the lobby of the Courtyard Marriott. All are welcome. I can...

I third that vote for Dinosaur BBQ. Good food/booze and walking distance to the venue sounds great to me.

Rumor has it Athens Joe is making a clock out of a record again this year.

The request show was a lot of fun. Fantastic for die hard fans, but the pace was certainly slow. I remember Cooley making a smart ass comment at one point, something like do you mind if we pick up the pace a bit. I can understand it if the band doesn't want to do that again, especially with the way ...

1 week from today!
