Not all music. Take the Black Crowes, for instance. At home, you can turn the stereo off... but live, you're stuck listening to that crap for 90 minutes. LOL

With my super slow connection I can't even begin to think about listening to the tunes. What I read sounds good. I'll have to check it out at work, much more bandwidth. Any Pacific NW dates to look forward to?

The band stay pretty much local, except for an occasional jaunt out to Colorado. Give it a listen if you have the time - if you like what you hear, let me know and I can set you up with a bunch of live stuff (on me).

Holy hijacked thread :silent: sorry

Yes - all 118 shows are Mr. Blotto - but I am not in the band, just a huge fan (6'2", 225 lbs).

Thanks for letting us know about the band. My son has a radio show at Truman. He just got the okay to make it a jam based show so I'll give him a suggestion to try and work these guys in. He says its a real pain sometimes because if its an aud tape he has to listen to everything over and over and if anyone says anything like "That was f*****g great! in the background he has to pull it out.

Highly recommend Mr.Blotto. They'll be in CO for a New Years show.

And lucky for me, they'll be in Michigan City for a makeup date on 12/19.

Sad about Nershi. I hear Honkeytonk Homeslice can tear it up. SCI was getting too jammy live. Getting away from their roots. I hadn't truly enjoyed them live since around '01. I don't blame Billy. Good luck to him!
