Damn, that was powerful.
That’s my fist time listening to that tune and I had to look up the lyrics. Tears were rolling down my cheeks before the second chorus.

Tears were rolling down my cheeks before the second chorus.Listening to the studio version, I never really paid attention to the meaning of the song, but when he did it this way live, it shot me in the soul. To me, he is the best songwriter, ever. How can you take that story and make it that powerful without saying, outright, what was happening?

I found a good version of how McMurtry is doing "Blackberry Winter" at his shows now. No mic, out if front of the monitors..... Holy fuck. What a song. I liked the studio version, especially Grissom's killer acoustic solo but this version....... Just kills me.

That is fantastic. Strumming an electric and singing seems really difficult to me. It's one of the things that stands out about Lera Lynn:
I didn't know she split off from that dude who used to play with her. Saw her open for someone a few years ago and really liked her.

Ben's a nice guy, very patient with me when I was buying my PRS from Righteous Guitars. I didn't realize he had moved on. I'll have to check out Big House.
It is really cool. They are doing a great job there are are super nice. Plus, you can go right down the street to Taqueria del Sol afterwards. I was bummed when Showcase Photo closed but swapping that for a kickass music store was a win.

REM usually had good opening. Ands and the Minutemen outclassed them on one show and the DB’s did another time.
Townes Van Zandt kicked Cowboy Junkies ass but it was an unfair competition no matter how drunk TVZ was.TVZ and Cowboy Junkies were one that I would call a draw when I saw them. Townes was actually in decent form when I saw them in Birmingham, plus the outdoor venue right by the tracks just added to the atmosphere.
Seen REM multiple times....only opener I remember was Fetchin' Bones. They kicked ass but this was on the "Lifes Rich Pageant" tour and REM was hitting their stride at that point.

I won a bunch of tickets to see Scandal and John Waite at Reunion around 84. They were taking turns opening and this night, Scandal opened. Scandal had a guest guitarist come on stage for the last two songs......dude had a red/black/white Kramer, just like EVH....who the fuck would do that....then he starts playing and you realize it WAS Eddie. It was right after he got his haircut so you really couldn't tell who it was at first.
Gotta say the opener won that night.

Caught McMurtry in Archer City last weekend with his full band. Fantastic show. Played a great new song in his encore with Betty Soo. The song started off talking about Pinocchio and Geppetto but as all McMurtry songs so, it quickly morphs.
I had never been to a show at the sight of the old Royal Theater. They have done a really good job of setting up the room next to the bombed out shell of old theater. Song and lighting were fantastic.

The D-18 from AUTF Guitar Emporium sounds incredible. Honestly don't know how I've lived this long without owning one. I brought my Taylor with me out here and will probably just leave it here. With that cedar top and smaller body, it just has no low end. But for me, that D-18 really shines in the middle.
Could not be happier. (edited: Damn, that Taylor looks funny in that picture.)And I have these two for a bonus.

NGD yesterday, straight from AUTF Guitar Emporium. Since it shipped from 68 degree, wet SF to 111-ty dry AG bumfuck TX, I'm letting it sit on the case for a couple of days.
AUTF even included a set of strings. No candy.
UPS guy was begging me to open it so he could look at it.
And yes, that is what you call a phone book on the table. Covers 26 towns in the hell of earth.-

I only learned in the past couple years that he wrote and originally recorded Broken Arrow, which I always thought was a great fucking song.
Did someone else cover "Broken Arrow".

As far as vocal fry:

What model is that Gretsch Hulla? And Chinese or Japanese?
I can never remember the numbers for Gretsch guitars. Had to look it up. It is the Streamliner (cheapest of their lines) but it doesn't have that on the on the truss rod cover.
They went a little overboard with the name on this one, even after the numbers. Sticker says Made in Indonesia.
Gretsch G2215-P90 Streamliner Junior Jet ClubWeighs 8 lbs. I mentioned the nut was smaller than my other guitars, but apparently it is the same as my big hollowbody Gretsch and actually a bit bigger than my tele. I guess the skinnier neck makes if feel smaller. I can't get over how good the P90 in the neck sounds.

That filter-tron is going to be replaced. Probably with a TV Jones. It is significantly weaker than the glorious P90 neck pickup. I LOVE that neck pickup and it still sounds really nice in the middle position. But weak.awesome. like the grain on the neck, love the creme plastic and the gold knobs. curious how the... I assume that's essentially a filtertron or a filtertron-style pickup on the bridge? Curious how that and the p-90 play together. Fun guitar, at $400 it's been pretty tempting a few times.
I'll also probably replace that bridge with an adjustment wrap around at some point.
The thing is really well built. Nut width is smaller than my other guitars but I really like the neck. Best word to describe the overall guitar is smooth. Extremely happy with it.-

Brand new? Awesome color.
Yep. I played a used one recently but for $80 more I got a new one (for $400) and in a color I liked a lot better.

Candy arrived.
From the pictures, I thought the paint was flat, but it has sparkles. Really beautiful. Haven't plugged it in yet but really happy with the build. I LOVE the color. Sparkles aren't over powering but a cool look.
Perfectly set up, frets are smooth, really happy with the quality. Can't wait to plug it in.-

This is the new song McMurtry is doing as his encore. Pinocchio in Vegas. About as autobiographical one we will ever get from him.....and him acknowledge such.
