    Caught the band in Chattanooga this past Saturday and they are just one of the best live shows you'll see. Plus they hang out and chat with fans. Just a great overall experience. The opener was the Quaker City Night Hawks who were an exceptional surprise. If you get the chance to catch a show, GO! Rod also said to expect the new record to release late August-early September.

    Good Stuff
    I saw both Quaker City Night Hawks and J Roddy at Shaky knees last week. Both were good!
    J Roddy Played a new song that sounded good. Similar to their usual sound. 
    They also did a cover of nirvana's all apologies which was quite cool.

    Hmmm. Let me just say that I really love this band and I appreciate their past albums. This song does not immediately reach out and grab me like their other music does. It's sounds a bit slick and synthesized. Almost as if it belongs on the Pretty and Pink Soundtrack....not bad, it's just I've heard this before. Where is the raw, organic, powerful, original rock they like to give us??

    totally agree.  reminds me of Kings of Leon after their first two monster albums (before they became posers making generic rock songs and power ballads).

    Love these guys -- hoping the album is their old sound and not more of this

    Come on, Columbus!  Driving down for the Trust Us show anyway, but it would be greatly awesome if it would sell out already so they would tell us that it is J Roddy!  :rock_on:

    Awesome! I want details. Maybe you can score tickets for the other two nights at the venue?

    Show on Thursday was awesome.  They definitely bring it.  Hoping they announce more dates in the Northeast once the album drops next month (which seems inevitable).
