Is DBT playing w/ Hold Steady? I'll be missing that same show in SF because of CBGB in Chicago. I could see them on Monday night after getting back to town, but I'm sure it'll take me until Wed to recover from the weekend. I've got some decisions to make this month with multiple options on the same nights. Jason Isbell, solo acoustic vs. Dead Confederate and Joe Pug + Or, The Whale vs. O'Death + Hillstomp.

HB's were GREAT. they played their hearts out for sure. great stuff. i think their new stuff sounded good. more of the same heavy sound. beginning they were a little loose but tightened up. langhorne of course was. langhorne. the performer. it was a little bit of a bummer most people cleared out after langhorne finished and didn't stay for HBs. more room to boogy for me i guess. i caught the heartless bastards and langhorne for you.
