Weekend
I don't know why I'm updating people on my weekend. There is nothing more boring than that. But I wanted to share two things that I saw that were really cool.
On Friday I went
here and saw
Chris Newberg. He was pretty cool and it was the only time I had ever been to a comedy club without knowing most of the material before going in. I was pleasantly suprised. I mean it's kind of dirttastic because the cats that go there were - rather - umm - salt of the earth.
Then on Saturday I went
here and saw the Drive-By Truckers play. I was expecting a lot and damned if I didn't get it. I was overly thrilled by what I saw and more than likely have added a new band for me to follow. It might have been the beer though - - I guess I can describe them as sort of like Widespread Panic meets the Black Crowes.
If you would like to hear some DBT shows. You can go here and download the 64k mp3's.
http://www.archive.org/audio/etreelisting-browse.php?cat=Drive-By%20Truckers I highly recommend any version of Daddy's Cup - which sounds like Charlie Daniels meets Skynyrd. Yeah yeah - I'm a hick what am I gonna do?
I went there with Doug and had a good time. We were mistakingly involved in the Q-Tip show. We were not disappointed by leaving the Q-tip gig, though Doug was a bit apprehensive to leave. Anyway - that was my weekend - I almost died from taking 8 Tylenol PMs because it was about 8000 degrees in my room - - other than that - right as rain.
