  1. Was reading about this yesterday and about to post about it. Can't wait to see this. I read somewhere the number of their combined recording credits. I'll see if I can find it.
  2. One can also age scotch the same way.
  3. Any idea who the brunette singer is in the Pancho & Lefty cover?
  4. Here is the Punch Brothers part. Chris Thile is so good. What a talent.
  5. Kevin McKinney amazes me. I saw him once with Bob Schneider. His guitar work, as usual, was flawless. Bob, as usual, did bunch of new songs right off the bat and Kevin didn't miss a thing. Brand new material that hadn't been released yet, and Kevin didn't play on, and he nailed it all. I'm pretty sure he didn't play on any of the recordings. I have a live recording of that show and Kevin does an extended solo that almost sent me to my knees. What a talent.
  6. I forgot Ricky was in that later rendition when Albert Lee joined. I always wondered about their connection with that song, "Country Boy At Heart". I knew it was a Skaggs song, but Albert does a killer version. The studio version is on his 1979-80 album.
  7. And if you EVER find this album....grab it. Albert's one 'vocal' album and it is incredible. His version of Sweet Little Lisa.
  8. Ah....the Hot Band. I know I've posted this multiple times....but it never gets old for me. And to watch all of those other rock legends and Huey Lewis watch him....and Nick Lowe's reaction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1Rx-zaBjow
  9. More Spyboy goodness with Julie Miller, who wrote the song. Julie and Emmylou's vocals together just kill me every time I hear them. It's a shame Julie is so sick now.
  10. Brady had quit playing professionally until Emmylou and Steve Earle convinced him to tour with each of them. I was waiting in line to get in to see Spyboy and Brady came cruising down the sidewalk. This venue is in a part of Atlanta with a ton of homeless people and trust fund 'artists' and jam band fans. Brady was carrying a plastic grocery bag and resembling Crackhead Clevon Little. He was starting to grow dreads and he was dressed like he had been on a bus all day....or under a bridge. I noticed people trying not to make eye contact with this 'homeless beggar' about to hit up everyone in line for some money. I walked towards him and shook his hand and he spoke to me for about 3 minutes then continued down the street. Got back in line and it was deathly quiet. I wonder if anyone recognized him when he went on stage.
  11. Found this picture on the Swart site. That is his living room where he records the majority of this stuff. He was in his 40s before he started getting the credit he deserved, thanks mostly to Emmylou and Steve Earle.
  12. I have been a HUGE Buddy Miller fan since the late 90s. Dude is a PHENOMINAL guitar player, GREAT country singer, songwriter, producer and all around great guy. I've been lucky to him with Emmylou, Steve Earle, Gillian Welch/David Rawlings, Patty Griffin, solo and with Julie. This article goes in to a lot about his gear which I thought this crowd would enjoy. Especially his $50 Wondre guitars. In the article, he talks about not playing fast as much anymore. https://www.premierguitar.com/nashvilles-buddy-miller Here is what he sounded like in 1996. I was lucky enough to see this incarnation of Spyboy.....maybe the greatest trio ever assembled. A balls-to-the-wall, full on rock-n-roll band.

  13. What a bitch she is. And the guy just sits there and takes it? No fucking way.
  14. I once saw Morganna take a bubble-bath in a clear bathtub at some strip club. It made me proud to be an American.
  15. Yep. That song was on Copperhead Road, when he was just really getting started on his downhill side. A year and half later, when he released "The Hard Way", he was essentially a dead man walking.
  16. Are you zip tying them down or using velcro? The two things I liked was the holes to run the cables and the elevated deck.
  17. Crap. I never knew you loaned him that car.
  18. Yep. That is generally what I do. My other smaller board is a Nano+ as well. That bicycle chain is DEFINITELY more work that I would ever put in to this. My holey board was this model. I thought it was be a great idea. I hated the thing.
  19. My father-in-law was a mail carrier after WWII. Old style, walking mailman, delivering mail to houses in Omaha, NE. He apparently instilled the need for my wife to IMMEDIATELY get the mail from the mailbox. Our house could be on fire, a tornado coming, her arm lopped off in a freak chainsaw accident, and have a kid chocking from swallowing a lego piece, and she would stop and check the mailbox. No matter how late she is running, or where she needs to be, she will check the mailbox. Then, she brings an envelope to me, points at the return address and says, "What is in this envelop?" Same for packages. Get it from the front porch, bring it so me and say, "What's in here?" YEARS of me saying, "I don't know, but I have an idea. Let's open it and find out"? Still, every time..."What's in here?"
  20. I also just put the text from the Tweet up. For some reason the tweet itself didn't populate.
  21. This is from a previous post by him about a week ago. 6 months, today! No weed and not a single thought of doing harm to myself since I put it down. Amazing how changing things really changes things. Peace and love, y’all!
  22. Reminds me of Willie's joke. "Doctor to me I had to stop masturbating. But Doc....why?? I'm trying to examine you."
