jrad was fun, but don't think i would see them again. they definitely play everything too fast and there were some fairly boring jams. eyes of the world was really good and so was cumberland blues.
my introduction to them was seeing britt play solo shows at beerland on weeknights during the early 00's. not a huge fan of anything before girls can tell, but everything after that is solid. though i'm less partial to the synth heavy hot thoughts.
i think the meatball hoagie is the best thing pinthouse burnet has going but it's too expensive...like everything else on their menu. still like the pizza rolls but they are tiny now and twice the price they used to be.
went to eeyore's on saturday for the first time in years. i expected it to have lost some of its weirdness but it was still fantastic. stayed long enough to have a couple beers, watch the costume contest, and do some great people watching. all of weird austin was still there getting high and hanging out. grateful dead was blasting from the stage PA between bands, and if you chose to buy a beer they were all local and only $7 for a 16oz pour. this old gray haired hippie lady was there with her goat that was ready to fight every dog in sight.
wish they would put more riot act songs in their sets. i seem to be in the minority that really loves that album. all or none is one of my favorite pj songs, hope i hear them play it one day.
kg bbq. brisket was not good. unrendered fat, tough, dry. sliced way too thick...received 1 slice that was a half lb. lamb chop was good but nothing special, not a lot of flavor. ribs were the best thing with a nice sweet glaze but could've used more savory flavor. sides were good. unimpressed overall.
it's great, and huge. you'll find everything from filthy $1 records to super expensive obscure shit. i like to go on sunday when the vendors are offering discounts to unload the records they don't want to take home. i always have to set a spending limit before i go in there.
