I always forget that song exists. Such a great song. Looks like they haven't played it since 2004.
Without going back and checking I thought they just played this at NYE a few days ago.
Also don't forget there is the Gimme Three Steps on this as well.
when/where did Hood say this? i knew there was that message on the website about it being reissued eventually, but i was thinking that was just something they said a couple of years ago and that wouldn't actually happen. so this, proper reissue, Wes Freed cover, etc. is great news!

During night #3 of the NYE Run (before or after Margo and Harold I believe)... Said that Rob Malone had found and given him all the Master Tapes. He said they'd do the re-issue up right with Wes Freed artwork. Cd and vinyl (if my memory is correct). Said they'd get it out as soon as possible to "tide us over" til the new proper record comes out...

I would say it's essential listening and well worth tracking down. It captures the DBTs pretty much as they were during this era (late 90s?) which is when I first started to go see them live.
Totally agree. It's unfiltered guts and gristle and listening to it (as I type) feels like a trip back home.
You can feel the RAWK Show coming thru the speakers on AAW. the "we had something special for you all, but I drove off with it of the roof of the car" Is probably the best Cooley line ever. Can't wait to own it on Vinyl.
take a deep breath and throw yourself into it with everything you got...it's great to be alive!
Anyone have any ideas of what you'd like to see as far as a new Wes Freed cover? While I'm quite excited about it myself I think it would be cool if he did a painting or re-imagining of the original since the trucker Jesus that adorns the cover is so iconic, right up there with the tapestry of Steve McQueen that they use to use as a backdrop onstage.

I'd love for him to reimagine PD and GB as well
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever
We have a little bit of recording planned and are finishing up our preparations for the official reissue of our long 'out of print' live album from 2000, ALABAMA ASS WHUPPIN'. Recorded in various Georgia clubs during the Pizza Deliverance Tour of 1999, it is probably the most punkrock thing we ever did and I've really enjoyed hearing again for the first time in way over a decade. We have restored the original 1/2" analogue mixes of the album and will be having it remastered with some nice new art work. Details and dates forthcoming.
Confession...I am not nor have I ever been a rock star.
However...I have often wanted to kick off a meeting at work by coming in with my eyes bloodshot, my shrirt untucked, and a scowl on my lip. I'd sit down in my chair and say, "I had a special treat for y'all but I drove off with it on top of the car!"
looks like this has been moved from 9/3 to 9/10. i wish they would announce it soon! i want to see the new artwork and i'm wondering about an extra tracks!

I only have a digital copy. Only DBT I don't have a physical copy of and only one of two (Live in Austin is the other) that I don't have on vinyl. Glad that's about to be fixed.
We call him Scooby Do, but Scooby doesn’t do. Scooby, is not involved

Perhaps but it's been my experience over the years that there's always something left in the vaults. At any rate, I'm just glad it's going to be available again.

If memory serves, I think it may have been released by two different labels back then. I ordered mine from SecondHeaven.com.
A1. Why Henry Drinks [4:59] A2. Lookout Mountain [5:22] A3. The Living Bubba [6:52]
Side Total: 17:13
B1. Too Much Sex [3:19] B2. Don't Be In Love Around Me [2:40] B3. 18 Wheels of Love [7:32] B4. The Avon Lady [4:05]
Side Total: 17:36
C1. Margo and Herald [8:01] C2. Buttholeville [5:50]
Side Total: 13:51
D1. Steve McQueen [9:19] D2. People Who Died [5:06] D3. Love Like This [7:13]
Side Total: 21:38
The D side is longer than I'd like, but without swapping out the running order that's probably the best you could do. If you WERE gonna tinker with the running order, I'd move People Who Died to after Buttholeville, so that would give a 18:57 side C and 16:32 side D, which would probably allow for slightly better sound over the entire disc. That said, being a live recording of (mostly) loud rock'n'roll, there isn't really a ton of dynamic range so a 21 minute side should sound fine, maybe be a bid quiet... usual ideal is 16-17 minutes per side, although some albums go WAY past that - both sides of AC/DC's classic "If You Want Blood" are around 24 minutes and it sounds pretty decent, and sonically isn't far from AAW.
In any case, I think this sort of rules out bonus material, since there really just isn't space in the natural sequencing. I imagine they probably want to keep it to 2 lps.
While it's a bit late, the perfect bonus for this set would have been a repress of the original 9 Bullets 7"....those mixes are pretty rare.

Not at home to check, but I'm reasonably certain mine is on the Second Heaven label as well.

From what I've seen, most vinyl counterparts to expanded reissues on CD don't include what's available on the bonus CD. While I'm sure there may be some demand for the "Nine Bullets" single, I'd rather hear more live cuts from this era.
My wife bought me an original off Ebay several years ago, back when there was that window (right after Decoration Day?) when PD and GB were out of print, and going for more on Ebay than AAW.
Reluctantly, our hero rises to the day, with a moan and a curse to an absent God.
