The Roots new one is really good.

also diggin Tom Petty, the Black Keys, new Band of Horses and a few other things i cant think of right now.

The Big Boi is solid...I spun the new Roots last week and was a little disappointed..............Ive been absolutely loving the new Black Keys album. Ill always hold Rubber Factory and the Magic Potion as my favs, but the Brothers sound is great.

i think Rubber Factory is still my favorite. new one might be in second already.


keep giving the Roots some time. it's a grower.

Anybody seen any good shows lately?...caught Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, several Phish shows, the new Sublime lineup, and some bluegrass stuff in the last month and half...looking forward to September: Black Keys, Ghostland Observatory, Widespread Panic (hopefully) and the free Virgin Music fest at Merrieweather which im going for only a couple bands, Ed Sharpe, Yeasayer, and one of the top bands of all time, Pavement. Im pissed im not going to Primus this weekend, going be in OBX

So far this summer I've been to Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews, and Kings of Leon. That should be it for a while, got tix for the Black Crowes in Oct.

Yeah a couple friends got tickets for the Black Crowes when they hit Richmond in Oct...on the fence...Drive By Truckers coming too around the sametime, gotta budget these days. Im still pissed I missed Alice in Chains when they rolled through Richmond, waited too long and the show sold out.

You see the story online about Kings of Leon getting sh*t on by all those pigeons in St. Louis the other day during their show? Pretty f*ing funny

The Crowes are going on a long hiatus after this tour, so I would catch them if you can.

Yeah pretty funny about KOL, gross too.

Just saw String Cheese Incident at Red Rocks. I had never heard them before, but it was a good show at a great venue. Perfect weather, full moon.

I was also just introduced to Toubab Krewe and I'm digging it. Jammy rock with a nice African influence. Couple of drummers, guitarists, and a guy who plays a harp made out of a gourd.

No love for Thickfreakness? That's my favorite, and probably Chulahoma in second.

Saw String Cheese once...not bad, recently saw their old lead singer and the cat from Leftover Salmon play some high energy bluegrass. Both those bands from your area in Colorado. Toubab Krewe im yet to get into but heard their tight.....before I die I need to make it out to Red Rocks.

Red Rocks and The Gorge are two must see venues at the top of my list

No, much love to both those. Thickfreakness got me into them back in the day, but I have spun that album soooo freakin much. Chulahoma is very solid, the second song, Have Mercy on Me, is one of the best guitar tracks of all time. Dan's solo is so freakin evil, that slow blues on that high chord sounds demonic...its rad and I definitly turn the sound up to eleven when that track plays

Agree...like to throw Shoreline and Deer Creek on that list, but the sheer beauty of a venue, from what I've heard Red Rocks and the Gorge are tops. For an indoor show, Radio City Music Hall would be cool. Missed CBGBs...but have been to MSG, great sound in there.

Yeah, same here. Got on board with Thickfreakness and played it a lot, but I got the bug and bought up everything they came out with, so it kinda got lost in the mix for a while. Gotta agree with your assessment, and I must say I like all their albums, of course.

hoping to see the Black Crowes this fall. looks like full 90 minute acoustic set followed by full 90 min electric set. should be killer.

i've never been to Red Rocks but my old band did play at CBGB's....

Yeah it's going to be great. I've got the VIP package, 2nd row tix, pre-party and post-party. Hoping some of the band might stop in.
