February 2, 20196 yr Author "drinking sweet tea from styrofoam cups" gets me every damn time: Edited February 2, 20196 yr by Seasick Sailor
February 9, 20196 yr Damn I had been wondering about Scott Miller. Talked to him shortly in Dallas many years ago. First heard him from Amtrak Crescent and then so forth. We had a short laugh because I actually owned a Chevy Citation in high school.Loved Scott since his V-Roys days. Red Ball Express is a fantastic song.
February 11, 20196 yr You can listen to the new Hayes Carll at this link: https://www.npr.org/2019/02/07/691387517/first-listen-hayes-carll-what-it-is?fbclid=IwAR12uqmhlu0GtcVdBvB2yfeKym2kMxQuFwOCpOZAkYn1z35zZAMlMsBW62g
February 12, 20196 yr BJ Barham's solo act is about as entertaining as you can get. Half music half comedy show. Plus, his voice continues to get stronger as time goes along.
February 12, 20196 yr It looks like Isbell will close the Irving show and FJM will close the Houston show.

February 12, 20196 yr Barham solo shows are really funny, he's a good story teller. And ya, gonna have to book a 24 hour trip to catch a jade/Isbell show, no doubt
February 13, 20196 yr Fucking corporate sponsorship makes me ragey. "Cal Coast Open Air Theater"? WTF is that? I've got to google to find out it's what WAS the fuckig Aztec Bowl for 75 years or so. I had no idea.
February 13, 20196 yr How is that gonna work set wise with both fj misty and jade bird on the billing with JI?
February 13, 20196 yr I wouldn't have pegged him as a particularly funny guy, but I definitely would enjoy this. His solo album was really solid.I took two friends who had no idea who he was and they came away fans. Honestly, the time was halfway split between music and stories. Great crowd interaction. I wish I had stayed for the second show to compare them. But it didn't come off as canned story telling.

February 13, 20196 yr I've seen him 4 or 5 times solo and he's only repeated 1 or 2 stories (wolves/nc st bball player and working at olive garden). Edited February 13, 20196 yr by 4th&Five

February 13, 20196 yr I got two for Irving with the citcard presale. Seats were already pretty picked over and they don't go public until Friday.
February 13, 20196 yr My wife got a couple in the balcony for the Houston show at White Oak. I'm getting old, so I need that shorter bathroom line. Also, I didn't ask who it was through, but holy hell the service fees for tickets were ridiculous - $17 per ticket for GA and $29 per ticket for balcony.
February 13, 20196 yr right around $20/per on mine. My 22nd row Red Rocks tickets for September were way cheaper. Edited February 13, 20196 yr by harold

Yeah with fucking Ticketmaster, I pretty much don't even try the pre-sales any more. All of the tickets are shit no matter how early you get in on "pre-sales." I just bite the bullet and go to StubHub.

Thought, I'll do balcony, it's not an insane amount more. Those service fees were a surprise

February 16, 20196 yr Anyone ever heard of Lost Dog Street Band? I was listening to Tyler Childers radio on Google Play at work today and came across one of their songs and got hooked on them. Their stuff is great, it's a husband and wife duo, they play real stripped down folksy stuff. The singer Benjamin Tod has some solo stuff as well that's also really good.Lost Dog Street Band-Carry On Benjamin Tod-Using Again Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
February 19, 20196 yr Seeing that there's gonna be a full length John Prine documentary detailing the lead up to his last album, should release in the next few months it looks like.

Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk I've been loving them too! I went to go see my friend The Hill Country Devil (second vid on this post) open a show for them a while back and had to leave before they played, but have gotten hooked on them since anyway. The GemsonVHS youtube channel is a treasure trove of mostly unknown and mostly incredible songwriters.
March 4, 20196 yr I just heard this on the radio: Does that mean:A) Mainstream Country has turned the corner?ORB) Cody Jinks has sold out?
March 4, 20196 yr 36 minutes ago, Parliament said: I just heard this on the radio: Does that mean: A) Mainstream Country has turned the corner? OR B) Cody Jinks has sold out? I didn't dig "Lifers" as much as his other work. It's maybe a little bit of each. That song is definitely a little more pop.
March 4, 20196 yr I was joking. That some may be a bit more pop than his other work, but it's better in every way than the stuff you otherwise hear on the radio.
March 5, 20196 yr My 88-yo father just put my 89-yo mother into assisted living, so this song now makes me cry uncontrollably:
March 6, 20196 yr Haven't sampled it yet but NPR has the 'new' Townes VZ recordings posted https://www.npr.org/2019/02/28/696718029/first-listen-townes-van-zandt-sky-blue?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=nprmusic&utm_term=music&utm_content=20190228&fbclid=IwAR3bJh6l04xEDTAAHK434lNdnbzFi727T92J8-saP3c2owW-mLayE2BLX14
March 6, 20196 yr My 88-yo father just put my 89-yo mother into assisted living, so this song now makes me cry uncontrollably: Tough stuff BV. Hopefully there is some music that gives you comfort as well.
March 6, 20196 yr 25 minutes ago, Buzzrock said: How cool is this? The coolest part is down the thread, where someone points out that this is hanging in the wall in Studio A. Which means Jason's probably back in the studio. Which makes sense as we're 2 years out from Nashville Sound already.
March 6, 20196 yr What would you pay to sit in the corner of that room quietly and just watch and listen?
March 6, 20196 yr Isbell has the summer tour kicking off too, have to imagine he'll be teasing the new tracks
March 6, 20196 yr Pretty sure he's at the studio working with Amanda and Brandi Carlile on their project.
