Shelby Lynne

DBT is indeed a good deal at $12. Even at the special 9:30 Club price of $15, it's a good deal. I would argue that Slobberbone is a better deal, but that's an old argument.

Is it ok if I accuse Patterson Hood a being butch?

Unfortunately, they're playing when my mom is visiting, and i don't think they'd be her speed. I just hope the Bottle Rockets aren't opening, that would be a double loss.

Joe Henry is just someone I've never been able to get into, though i know everything tells me i should. I have one of his early cd's, and recently picked up another for a buck, but it was only ok. And my wife didn't care much for it.

I agree the price was too high - thus the low turn out at the shows. Bad miscalculation on their part.

Joe Henry is only $15.00. If you know him & like him you'll dig the show. Just guitars and standup bass.

The best deal going though has to be the DBT.
You get nearly 3 hours of music every night for only ~ $12.00. Wish I could make the Thanksgiving eve show.

perhaps you should listen to her CD "I Am Shelby Lynne" to clarify that…ha ha ha
Patterson - Definitely Butch. Cooley too. Mesh trucker hats are a dead giveaway. Who needs gaydar. :D

DBT & Bottle Rockets tomorrow night in Cleve. Being billed as a battle of the bands. I don't know the BRs well. Sounds like you really like them. So…I should go?
Don't know how close Pittsburgh is to Cleveland, but that's a wail of a double bill.

The Bottle Rockets first three albums were excellent. Farrar and Tweedy both appeared on the first one (the lead singer, Brian Henneman, was an Uncle Tupelo roadie, and I think was part of Wilco on their first tour and maybe played on the first record…he's also in a classic country cover band with Farrar's brother) Roscoe Ambel of Steve Earle band (and the Yayhoos) produced the second and third albums. Their fourth waas not so good, nor was their Doug Sahm tribute album. They have always put on great 2.5 hour shows in a blue collar fashion, not unlike DBT. Hopefull their new one is a return to form.
