Helotes
We roadtripped over with friends to Helotes this weekend to catch Son Volt at the Floore's Country Store.
Farrar and crew put on a nice show. I liked the Okemah tour setlists better, but the folks in our group all seemed pretty happy with the stuff they played (well, perhaps with the exception of one). I'm a fan of some of the stuff on Wide Swing Tremolo and Straightaways, and those albums didn't get much play in this show. Of course, some people would probably consider that a plus.
The boys are playing here in town at the Continental Club tonight, but I screwed around and didn't buy advance tix before they sold out. Whoops!They're in my neighborhood, too. How lame is that?
Ah well. It's just an excuse to go see them someplace I want to visit to make up for it. :)

Hey, now! I actually enjoyed last night's show. I thought he really did a good job of mixing up the mollasses-drenched slow-moving angst-ridden Dust-Bowl-Okie songs with ones that weren't that. With my driver having the night off, though, I couldn't stay till the end...Shiner Light goes down too smooth.

Heh, I have to give you a little Farrar grief from time to time.
We gotta get Cindy out to one of these dealios soon!
