Re: Chapel Hill, April 19th

After an 80 mile drive home and a few hours of sleep I made it to work in one piece with the help of several cups of coffee. And to put it mildly the show last night was worth the lack of sleep. Had an absolute blast last night with DBT. We saw quite a few familar faces from the 40 Watt and various ...

Re: Chapel Hill, April 19th

We're going to be running late tonight am I safe in assuming that DBT will be hitting the stage at their normal time? I know I read that in Wilmington they will go on pretty early.

Re: Jason Isbell Winston-Salem, NC 4/13/2012

Very energetic show, probably the best of the 5 we've seen in the past year. Last time we saw Jason back in September @ The Grey Eagle in Asheville he seemed to be in a poor mood and in a bit of a rut, I'm glad to say the show last night was the exact opposite. I still miss having Browan in the band...

Re: Jason Isbell Feb. 3rd & 4th.

But yet he's been known to post links to fan recordings of his performances on youtube. I don't really understand the logic of his no-taping policy but it is his decision.

Re: Chapel Hill, April 19th

We're definitively going to hit this show, a little over an hour from where we live. Hopefully we can make it to the following night in Wilmington as well.

We've never been to the Cat's Cradle, but we do plan on checking it out when Alabama Shakes plays there April 6.

Re: New Cooley Solo Shows!

(side note--Wuxtree Records is wonderful but needs to get their floor redone--it's a lawsuit waiting to happen, JUST SAYING ) No doubt, I stumbled and stepped on someone's foot Friday afternoon before the show. The second time I've been there and the second time I tripped. Maybe I'm just clumsy.

Re: dbt track 88 - Never Gonna Change

I love the live versions of this song Jason has been doing the past few years. The 30 seconds or so of soloing before the start, the overdriven main riff, the Stone Free portion in the middle, the rocking out at the end....just great stuff.

Hearing Carl Perkins Cadillac was the reason I got into DBT, and hearing this line in particular: Mr. Phillips never said anything behind nobody's back Like "Dammit Elvis, don't he know, he ain't no Johnny Cash" The first time I heard it I remember thinking to myself, did Elvis know it? Di...

After spending most of the day in bed with a hangover I'm cutting back on the booze tonight lol. Got up around 4 and we spent a grew hours walking around downtown Athens, what a great town. Looking forward to the big rawk show tonight. Be interesting to see if they can match last night.
