I thought Mr Mercedes was OK---a nice change of pace. Out of King's writings over the past five years or so, I think 11/22/63 was my favorite.

Just finished Trevanian's Incident at Twenty-Mile that I very much enjoyed and just started Summer of Katya.

Still have the original Too Much Pork For Just One Fork on the Moist label. I got that one, and somewhere around here I have the original Santo single and Pink Bismuth EP. I saw them at an outdoor festival in Auburn, AL, in about 1990 or so and then followed them for several years back before they ...

The show definitely seemed short, but it was well worth the zip up to Tennessee and zip back down to Alabama. It was one hell of a set & I met some really nice folks.

Got the day off tomorrow for the long (kinda) drive to the Rock Show-----just started the pre-pre-gaming!

Looking like rain, but I'll be there.

A woman DeKalb County, Alabama, deputies say rode a stolen horse to burglarize a store is currently only facing alcohol-related charges, but more charges may be on the way. Sheriff Jimmy Harris said his office got a call about an intoxicated woman stealing merchandise from a store at Hammonds Crossr...

So, what's this venue like? This is my first trip to The Shed.

Cool. The Birmingham date is on a weekend when I'm in town! Promo video for Cask & Drum says DBT will have a 90 minute set. Here's an article from local paper about Cask & Drum for anyone interested: http://www.al.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2014/07/birminghams_cask_drum_announce_2.html

So, she volunteered to be a sober driver (not all that fun for the driver) to go see a band she knows nothing about (dicey at best whether you'll like a band you've never heard) and showed up all put together with a dress on. From your description of the whole event, there's a pretty decent possibil...

I'd do better at picking a top 25. This show had the same jaw-dropping qualities as the time I saw Springsteen, first time I saw Willie Nelson, last couple of times I've seen Neil Young, and the times I've seen Tom Waits. I enjoyed every second of every song. I was grinning like Matt Patton the whol...

I bought my ticket yesterday. I'm going to be of town a lot this fall* and was worried I may be gone when they come through Birmingham, so I figured I'd rather make a road trip to potentially see them twice this time around instead of risking not catching them at all. *Seems like every time I have t...

In fairness to your daughter, her "autograph" isn't significantly less legible than Cooley/Hood/Isbell's. Maybe you could just pass it off as one of theirs.

At one point (had to be in the 2nd half of the show 'cause that's all i caught) Patterson was talking about how the show was totally unplanned and somebody shouted a request and Patterson said something like "except that one; we definitely planned on not playing that one, no we're not gonna pl...

8 hours ago, I was still driving back home. At work now and feel like total crap. 1000% worth it. This show was truly special. I got in the car to drive home and had to turn off the radio for the two and a half hour drive ---I wanted to hold on to the echoes in my mind for a little longer. ETA---I s...

Never mind---on the way to the show!

Are we against fake boobs?

Medically necessary fake boobs are completely fine, but beyond that, real boobs that aren't "perfect" are much more perfect than manmade.

Woohoo! Glad I made the cut!

I'm a newbie poster (but longtime occasional lurker) and am here to introduce myself as instructed. I'm in Birmingham. I like DBT. I like ice cold beer on a hot afternoon. I like watching the sun come up over the interstate or even better, a forest trail. I don't like fake suntans, fake house plants...

Anybody know what time doors open?
