  1. i find the string arrangments out of place. they don't fit with the feel of the album imo. it's like the horns on tom petty's southern accents...no need.
  2. been listening to the new sturgill a lot. varies on which song i like the most...scooter blues was an early favorite but gets a little stale with repeat listens. the rest of the songs have been growers. swamp of sadness and jupiter's faerie are the only 2 i don't like at all. best album he's put out since sailor's guide.
  3. went to a Letterman taping in NYC when I was 18 and Mayall was the musical guest. he sat in with the band and they played classic blues songs during all the commercial breaks. it was pretty cool but i definitely didn't apprceciate it enough...needed another 5 years. blues breakers was definitely a regular in my rotation for a while.
  4. HIGHWATER is the code but tickets are fucking expensive. gonna wait this one out and hope to pick something up cheap close to the show. don't give a shit about lucinda williams.

    Port Aransas

    Last weekend was one of the best beach trips I've had in a long time. Maybe it was the post hurricane, post holiday weekend but there weren't many people around. Beaches were as clean as I'd seen in years...no seaweed, no tar, no trash. What a great weekend.

    Italian

    ate at red ash last night after making a reservation like 3 months ago. expensive but the entrees are large enough to easily feed 2 people. the bone marrow risotto was very good as was the frutti di mare. the tiramisu was the largest dessert portion i've ever received at a restaurant. would probably skip the steak trimmings bruschetta next time. easily have enough of everything left over for another meal tonight.
  7. After 17 years of use I finally made my first mod to the wsm and added gaskets around the fuel door and lid. Had noticed some uncharacteristic leakage the last few cooks. Problem fixed, held temp like new. Curious how long it's gonna run before I have to get a new one, I think it's got at least another decade. Anyway, pastrami beef ribs...

    Beef ribs

    Pastrami beef ribs. Ridiculously rich, almost too much really...almost.
  9. was cool seeing tripping daisy in dallas. lots of people turned out and the crowd was super into it, loved seeing all the old tripping daisy shirts. the band also seemed super appreciative. it took them a bit to get warmed up and the first set (elastic firecracker) was pretty loose but it was awesome hearing those songs live. second set was tighter and sounded great. said they're recording a new album this year and will be touring next year, but they didn't play any new stuff.
  10. the sword made it 2 years after their "breakup" before playing this levitation gig. wonder if it's a one off.
  11. i doubt those dates will be rescheduled either. he's over it at this point, nothing holds his attention for that long.
  12. i'll be at tripping daisy as well. they were really good when i saw them at mohawk like 5 years ago.
  13. saw Rite Here Rite Now in the theater yesterday. good concert film, loved the crowd shots...everyone was having so much fun. looks like we'll be getting a new papa for the next album.
