Live from The Ryman Vol II out 10/4

King of OK out now. 

 


This one sounds so much better than the other live at the ryman album. I may actually have to go listen to it - live at Alabama is still my favorite Isbell album but that other one shouldn’t have been released.

 

 

 

this keeps showing up in my Spotify and I like it. Love the kinda rhythmic theme that shows up in the prechorus and second half of the chorus.

Sturgill got added to nugs. Doesn’t do it justice. Most shows are boring as hell. Literally all of the mmj shows are electric. Something about the Sturgill shows are lacking the heat they put down. 

Are you saying he’s good in person but the nugs shown don’t convey that?

I guess this could go here . . . I'm always late to the party . . . the band Wednesday?  Nice simple recording, love the lyrics, a very slight Kasey Musgraves hint to her voice and a bit of that North Carolina "we don't know if we're country or indie rock" vibe a la Whiskeytown.

Damn her voice is so sweet and pure.  She doesn't lose the accent, but it's never affected.  She's astonishing.

Once read a review that said, "Sometimes she sings like she is in love with her own voice, but who could blame her"
Another said, "She sings like an angel with hell-scorched wings"

Saw her perform at Blue Rock in Wimberley earlier this year. Damn good show. She put out an EP with a group that I’ll have to google to find, but she sings lead on a cover.

I dig this. I was listening to this and wishing it was a bit more punk rock, so I found the album and yeah track one gets me there.

 

this one is similar to me in that I want to post it in this thread but I’m not sure why exactly and it probably doesn’t fit. This one kinda does…


and I think Isbell liked or commented or something which made me dig into the artist a bit more. But this one doesn’t really fit yet is the one I want to share. and learn that little riff on guitar

Appropriate for this thread -- my wife was just playing a Kasey Chambers station on Pandora.  I need to listen to more Kasey, she kinda fell off my radar for a while.  I got to see her several times, once upstairs on 6th Street where there were maybe 30 people there.  Hearing her voice up close is pretty mind-blowing.

Hotel rooms in Stillwater seem to be hard to come by already, so if you intend to attend I recommend starting to work on finding a nice co-ed to date.

Yeah they've added some over the years but it's still pretty rough trying to get a room on most game days. This thing is gonna be insane.

Added a second date on the 11th. Only difference is Mike Mcure band on 11th and TGD on 12th.

In other related news, appears Bleu Edmondson is back in the studio for the first time in almost a decade. Think it’s been even longer than that since he played any shows. Been a very nice week.

Is there anything around Stillwater with rooms? I signed up

Yeah it's kind of rough. You can check Cushing and Yale... maybe Ponca City although it's a bit further.

You might have to end up staying in Tulsa or OKC. Maybe rent a car service if you don't want to mess with driving. It can get a little pricey but if you have group of people it isn't too bad.

Also - talked to one of my buddies who works at OSU. They had 140,000+ ticket early ticket requests after the first show was announced, which is why they added the second.

I've been in queue for 43 minutes already. Anyone else queueing? 

I had like 4 different groups of friends, maybe 20 people in total, all trying to get tickets this morning.

I'd say the success rate was maybe 10-20%.

Both shows were announced as sold out a few hours ago. OSU Athletics also announced they are adding two more shows - Thursday and Sunday - and there would be details soon on when those would go on sale.

Such a great show.  I thought it was brilliant.  The weather was cool and nice, and it wasn't crowded at all.  If I wasn't feeling so lazy after three days in the sun, I'm sure I could've walked right up front instead of sitting just out side of the standers.

They sold 180,000 tickets for 4 shows, absolutely unbelievable. Stillwater may never recover.

Yeah it's freaking crazy man.

I used to literally see all of these bands in dive bars and now they are selling 180,000 tickets for four straight stadium shows. I can't even wrap my mind around that.

Didnt see it live, just stumbled onto this set from ACL. There are some fucking jams on this one. Great listen, this shit should be on spotify.

I love Mike Mcclure and The Great Divide.  They were my first first into red dirt music.  I'm glad they're still playing after all these years
Mike and his wife, Chrislyn Lawrence have a new record out under the name of Crow and Gazelle. https://www.crowandgazelle.com

Very folkie and stripped down. Good listen but very different from The Great Divide.
