April 13, 20187 yr Digging the new Prine album. Getting me through my Friday on spotify. Are you kidding me??!!?? First new John Prine in 13 years. It's probably the most awesome thing ever.

April 16, 20187 yr Aimee Mann is interesting, especially if Ted Leo is with her. I love that dude and those two together are magical.
April 18, 20187 yr So what's the over/under on how much longer Todd Snider will be alive? Jeez. He's always had demons but it doesn't appear to be an improving condition.

He's always had demons but it doesn't appear to be an improving condition. I've seen Todd nearly a dozen times and have never seen a bad show. Although, I heard that a show I had to give my tickets away for ended up being a bad one. He's battled his demons for years. Is it getting worse? I haven't heard anything.

He's always had demons but it doesn't appear to be an improving condition. Recent videos have looked better than a couple years ago. When HWA made their last album (2016?), he seemed withered away and out of his god damn mind. I had kinda thought Todd might be the next Keef, but he looked rough there. I remember him giving an interview where he said he wasn't drinking, but doing a ton of acid all the time. Like with the tone that this was some kind of improvement. It was like a diabetic saying they're giving up red meat. He seems less fucked up recently and in general better overall health. Who knows. His real battle is with pain killers, and that shit isn't easy to get past. And it'll kill you pretty quick. Edited April 19, 20187 yr by Al_4_ISU
April 19, 20187 yr Last time i saw him with HWA he himself said he was trippin balls on shrooms. He seemed real fidgety. I guess shrooms is better than itch pills.
May 3, 20187 yr Whitey Morgan is great and i like that you can see him in a bar with about 200 people. I'm seeing Sturgill this weekend opening up for Widespread Panic. I saw Sturgill on 4/20 and he was more of a rock band than country. He played 10 min jams of his songs which was cool but I wanted a little more country sounding stuff. He was playing to the audience since it was 4/20 at a jamband type festival.
May 3, 20187 yr Saw Isbell on Monday night. Great show and a fantastic talent. The live version of Cover Me Up was incredible.

Sounds a lot like the SS show I saw in dallas months back, cept it wasn't even badass guitar solos just like garage band jamming type shit. Pretty disappointing and weird show overall.
May 5, 20187 yr My wife comes up with some good shit sometimes. We've been listening to Brothers Osborne whilst driving to Dallas.
May 7, 20187 yr great set of interviews with isbell, not sure where to find the full length... Edited May 7, 20187 yr by bluto
May 7, 20187 yr Sturgill was pretty good on Sat night and panic was really good. I didn't make it out to last nights show but i saw where Sturgill played Ride me High and Come Together with WSP.

Moreland is awesome. I saw him open for Iron and Wine a few months ago. Unfortunately, the Iron and Wine fans talked over most of his set. Really disappointing.

Really disappointing. Goddamn I hate people who yap through concerts. Always maddening, but extra infuriating when it's the headliner. Saw Wilco at Stubbs and morons in front of me just kept yammering. It's like why the fuck did you buy tickets to stand here and try to talk over music? You could have stood outside and done that for free.
May 8, 20187 yr well if they don't buy the tix they can't snap a shitty selfie to put on insta/fb to let all their friends know they aren't sitting at home on a saturday night.

You could have stood outside and done that for free. This has become one of the thing that bothers me most in life. Sadly, the olds do it as much as the youngs. I've found that screaming "blah blah blah" or some other nonsense words at people will get people to shut up or move away most of the time.
May 11, 20187 yr Author I believe Brent Cobb has been mentioned in this thread. He has a new album out today: Providence Canyon.
May 11, 20187 yr Really liked a few of his songs from his previous album, have to give this one a spin. Thx for heads up
May 11, 20187 yr Older black folks in Houston love "Tennessee Whiskey." It's on the blues / zydeco radio shows and you hear it live in the juke joint jam sessions. Edited May 11, 20187 yr by MaybeACoordinator
May 11, 20187 yr I believe Brent Cobb has been mentioned in this thread. He has a new album out today: Providence Canyon. Yes he has. He is my new current favorite.
May 12, 20187 yr I got Brent Cobb's previous album because of this thread and it was on heavy rotation for awhile. Looking forward to his new one.
May 12, 20187 yr We saw Shooter Jennings in concert this week, and he played several songs from his upcoming (or just released???) album. Good stuff. His fiddle player kicks ass.

May 15, 20187 yr One of my favorites, Freedy Johnston, with a new song to be recorded for his upcoming Kickstarter-funded album: Freedy Let me just say that when it makes sense for a guy like Freedy to go to the public to fund a cheap album that the record industry is completely fucked.
May 16, 20187 yr We're all gonna sit around and play this game like cover me up really isn't top shelf. Shit I'm in let's go. Where we going Edited May 16, 20187 yr by DigDug
May 16, 20187 yr Well fuckers I didn't see the drunk thread so I'll just lay my shit here, If there's two things that I hate It's having to cook and having to date Busting ass all day to play hurry up and wait That's a few things that I hate
May 16, 20187 yr Now look at me babyStruggling to do everything rightAnd then it all falls apartWhen out go the lightsI'm just a lonely pilgrimI walk this world in wealthI want to know if it's you I don't trust'Cause I damn sure don't trust myself
