    i saw them in starkville(you can see the back of my head on youtube), and we got to meet the band. they were really cool with everyone even though there werent many people at the show. they seem to care for the fans. they also put on a good show. i just got tickets for the memphis show in october and i cant wait. a blessing and a curse is good but decoration day is still my favorite. cooley can make you want to cry your heart out.

    I'm debating on whether or not I'm going to that show. I'm pretty sure I can swing it, but I have to confer with my buddies on tickets, etc.

    Alas, tonight will not work out as well...

    And I think that's for the better... I want to see them in all of their 3-hour glory....

    I couldn't make it up for this one either. I did notice somewhere (I can't track down the link now though) that Jason, Shonna, EZB, and Neff were going to play with Marc Ford of the Black Crowes tomorrow night at an L.A. Club, Kings maybe?

    I'd imagine that would be pretty cool. I'd love it if any of these guys did a solo acoustic tour of the west coast.

    Gangsta' Billy
    Pizza Deliverence
    Alabama Ass Whuppin' (Live)
    Southern Rock Opera (2 disc)
    Decoration Day
    The Dirty South
    A Blessing and a Curse

    Live at the 40 Watt (dvd)

    The last four albums are far superior to the first three. The dvd was filmed right after the release of The Dirty South. My favorite probably is "The Dirty South."

    Ed Burns cites Goddamn Lonely Love on his celebrity iTunes playlist.

    He comments: "This song will blow you away. I just used it in an upcoming movie, Purple Violets. And get their new record, Decoration Day".

    Honestly, I agree.
    But the more I listen to Pizza...holy crap.
    the whole thing is just so genius and raw and lo-fi.
    I fuckin love it.

    It just damn well might be my favorite.

    I feel the same way about Gangstabilly. The songs on that album are killer.

    Pizza Deliverance and Gangstabilly took awhile to grow on me, but after little while they really clicked and now some of my most listened to songs are on those records... One of these Days, Box of Spiders, Why Henry Drinks... I could go on and on.
