BarkLessWagMore Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I was at the show , and couldn't have said it better myself. Agreed. That show was a bargain at $15. I turned to the guys I was with after about 8 songs and said "it feels like we're stealing now". My only complaint was being bumped into by a "happy" John Wawrow who was enjoying himself immensely in the company of Sully and Bulldog (and I presume Mrs. Bulldog). Seriously a fun time.

NoSaint Posted August 9, 2013 Author Posted August 9, 2013 Is that the whole set or just the highlights? im guessing whole set - i dont think its a full on show, just a lunch hour special for the radio station. that said, nice little set.
The Poojer Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 yeah he played a full set on wednesday, this is for WXPN and their weekly series, typically 40 minutes for the radio broadcast. a couple bands have gone on and just played the day away...dr. dog, dead milkmen, walkmen come to mind...oh and its free and a packed house is 450-500...so the setting is incredible. but talk about an introspective record this one is...holy crap. i'd love to see him hook up with patterson & the gang for a couple one off shows. its funny because his new bassist resembles patterson a bit... im guessing whole set - i dont think its a full on show, just a lunch hour special for the radio station. that said, nice little set.

BillsFanNC Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I would have been hoping to hear either Elephant or Relatively Easy from the new album, but still you can't go wrong with any of them. Album of the year.
RuntheDamnBall Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 I know there are a bunch of Isbell fans here. I am finishing up a mix of a new show for WNYC called Death, Sex & Money (we have a few episodes out), and just figured I'd give you all a heads-up that Isbell and his wife are featured on the show that comes out this next week. (Can subscribe on ITunes, etc).
NoSaint Posted May 18, 2014 Author Posted May 18, 2014 On the topic - the guys are reuniting for a benefit show next month.... And with neff no longer a trucker, it'd be cool to see that happen a bit more often maybe
