I was watching the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame concert on tv and it got my mind grapes gushing... will Uncle Tupelo be inducted into the Hall? If memory serves, No Depression was released in 1990 making them eligible in 2015 as per induction guidelines. So whatdya think? Do they make it? If so, do they make it on the first ballot? Do Jeff and Jay play No Depression together?? (Please reserve comments as to the validity or bullshittedness of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame itself. It is what it is- its industry; its neat; and Axl didn't bother to show up for the show.) Thoughts? (However biased g

Thanks a TON guys! I just closed my gig with it- I wasn't 100% on the lyrics cuz it was the first time I had played it the whole way through, but folks was dancin up a storm! They was dancin so hard they knocked my beer off of my road case, so you guys owe me one Yuengling. Just joshin' I owe YOU a beer. Y'all are the bees knees! Wait- I guess I should get us back on topic after diverting us into JTE territory: you guys are the knees on the bees which are contained within the muzzle. Ill post some of the trickier stuff of his that I've learned. Thanks again!

A bit out of place, but I'm takin a shot that some intrepid VCer can help me figger out the swingin Justin Townes Earle tune HARD LIVING LOVING YOU. When I have a few spare minutes, ill post what I've been playing, but it isn't quite right. If nothin else, you should all at least give the tune a listen. Its a FANTASTIC tune. I've figured out a handful of his tunes; and if anyone is interested, id be happy to post some. Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction on HARD LIVIN'!

Only one way to find out...

Hey... I enjoy my Angora Shoes as well... And just this past Christmas, I recieved a card from a hooker. Holy Hell... talk about speakers speaking in code, huh?!

Sure, I'll sway with y'all.

This announcer is "Gay" to people who post on sites rather than readin Huck Fin every year like a good American should. Coming from me, that's saying something. Its like the dude who says, "Man, that guy's at the mall all the time!" but how would he know if he himself weren't at the mall all the time? My appologies.

Jim Jarmusch. Nice.

Yeah. Go to NPR.org tomorrow. It'll be up for a year or two.

You're right. Its about endurance. Its not called Down and Down. He's saying, "go ahead and cry." We'll all make it through... Just you see.

Thanks happeningstone.

Anyone know who did the horn arrangements? Was it a collaborative dealie? I remember Jeff talking in an interview a while ago about how proud he was about the string arrangemets in Jesus (the man, not the song- obviously) but I'm sure these guys are total pros when it comes to being the Total Pros so they can just go with it.

Republicans?! I think the record is pretty clear, Sir!

Now all they need is a contra bassoon a la Tom Waits Bone Machine era. well played, Pros!

good advice.
