This is the solo debut from the lead singer of Lucero. Its a mini album (7 songs) based around the novel Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy. It features Ben on acoustic guitar, Rick Steff on accordion, and Todd Beane on pedal steel.

1. The Last Pale Light in the West

2. The Kid

3. Davy Brown

4. Chambers

5. Tobin

6. Toadvine

7. The Judge

The actual hard copy should be around soon, but if you preorder at luceromusic.com it will direct you to an immediate download after purchasing.

I am very impressed with this. There wasn't much doubt in my mind that I would dislike it, but this is exactly what I wanted a Ben Nichols solo album to sound like. Also just having acoustic guitar, accordion, and pedal steel was a great choice.

Picked up floors for Cincy today!

I was just about to make a thread about this. Download the album everyone, its great.

What was the deal with that? Were front row seats really held back and unsold until the day of the show?

I bought two front row seats for some friends the day of the show. Probably around 2 that day.

New Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings.

Here is a good summary of whats been going on. Some things were rumors and blown out of proportion, but some is legit and people should be aware of their surroundings when in downtown little rock.

what are you ascared of?

there has been some crime activity in the Rivermarket in the past week.

excited that is sounds like a documentary along with the full length songs.

Anyone have an extra? I got shutout this morning.

I just picked up row C in the public onsale. booyah

I live in LR and the Robinson, I think, is a really really cool place on the outside, but once you go in its alright. The front of the building is a big building with columns and a bunch of steps. The theatre inside is kinda boring. Not much character inside, but it sounds great in there. I highly recommend coming down. Little Rock is a great place to stay for a night or two. Everything fun is within a short walking distance from Robinson as well many hotels.

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals Add Fall US Tour Dates:

September 22nd

Any idea when the show, whether it's in Snowden or the GPAC, will go on sale? I'd prefer the GPAC because it's ten minutes from my apartment and the acoustics are wonderful. I was at the Ryan Adams show, too. Fantastic performance, but I would've liked an encore. Alas.

the show in dallas has a presale (non-wilco presale) next week on the 20th. So I figure a batch of presales maybe wednesday or thursday of next week.

Little Rock That is awesome, Venue is pretty nice. Seats around 1700 i think. Norah Jones just played there.

Oh and I noticed a flyer last night at the Ryan Adams show, pretty sure the snowden show will be move to the GPAC in germantown unless I read the flyer wrong.

Off to go see the show in Oxford tonight

this is out there now.

Fall tour details. Presale with iTunes purchase of album. Probable cities listed, but no venues

I Am Trying To Break Your Heart

No, that's not true. We don't want to break your heart. And we won't. That's why we're making a little something for all you Wilco fans out there. We're fans, too, you know. Watch for the six-pack of 2" Wilco UniPo at our booth at San Diego Comic-Con, y'all. Jeff, Nils, Glenn, John, Pat and Mikael will all be there. Keep your eyes here for more updates.

 

I just emailed Proud Larry's about tickets and the guy was amazed that I knew about the show already since he only talked about it to Cary yesterday. Tickets will go on sale when the show is 100% confirmed.
