i think Mitch Easter is in the band too.

Yep.. Mitch was excellent.  Eleven piece band -- strings, horns, pedal steel from Eric Heywood (Son Volt)-- it was incredible.  He closed with Bowie's/Mott's "All the Young Dudes" and the Velvets' "Rock and Roll."  A great night.

high fever, not going. flu epidemic around here. found someone to use tickets who will appreciate. i've been having some issues & the smart move is to not go. they'll be back. bummed about it though. bundled up with some soup & college hoops.

I'll be seeing Cracker at a private event in Atlanta tonight.  I don't think I've seen them since the '90s,  Not sure why I neglected this band, but glad to get to see them again.

I thought they were really good.  My friend who got us into the show is a devoted fan/friend of the band and said they went pretty heavy on the oldies, which makes sense since I recognized many of the songs despite not paying attention to their career since the early '90s.  This show was sort of an invite-only open bar/free food tax write off type of event celebrating the reopening of a local theater in the wealthy area of Atlanta, so I guess they wrote their setlist with an older, richer audience in mind (it was a very old crowd, but they were enthusiastic).  They seem to have a new Athens, GA based lineup, which was very good.  They only used the female backup singer on two or three songs.  I would have liked to have heard more from her.  I though she added nicely to their sound.  Johnny was definitely the visual highlight of the show, and his playing was great, as I remembered from back in the day.
