Todd Snider totally delivered last night. What an awesome show. He did all my favorites and a few new ones too. I love the small venue I saw him at. Was perfect for Todd's style. My only disappointment was the guy that opened for him, Reed Foehl. While I could appreciate his talent and his voice for sure, he was a depress fest. He needs to up the meds or something. Set list for Todd as follows to the best of my recollection:
Just Like Old Times Ballad of the Devil's Backbone Tavern Can't Complain Alright Guy Easy Money Double Wide Blues Conservative Christian Right Wing Republican Straight White American Males Beerrun Mr. Bo Jangels Tension
And lotsa tall tales and stories. Great show, I will definitely be doing it again. Best 40 bucks I've spent in a long time.
He did "Double Wide Blues". Of course. It's a great one. Glad you had a great time. Thanks for posting!
I love it when the opening act is awesome, but lately I'm fine with them being something I don't care about. I can get there late, hang out in the bar and talk then rally for the headliner.

This weekend, an old friend visiting said, "You know - school typically starts the day after Labor Day in Louisiana where we went to school. And you and I met in fourth grade in Ms. Tornabene's class. So that means that as of this Tuesday, it will be the fifty-year anniversary of our friendship..."
Woah. So proud to have had him as my brother-by-choice for all these years. We've seen many many highs and lows together. Grade school, scout camp, girlfriends, college, kids - and now we look at each other and say "retire? I'm finally getting good at this!" Although we learned that we absolutely cannot stand to be around each other for more than a week in a row; we're so different. Still. Wow.

Can't wait to see Todd Snider in September at a really small venue in San Diego. He's promising an old school performance, just him, a stool, his guitar and harmonica. Should be awesome.
Lucky you!
Tell him i said Hi. Not that he knows me , but i like his stuff. I think Viva Satellite is my fave.

I am grateful for my hub.... I'm not much of a girly girl but he though it was a benefit that I: a) liked NASCAR b) drank beer c) loved road trips and driving in the dead of night d) liked anchovies
I'm girly girl enough for him. TG.
Nice that you found the right person to share your life with. Here's to many more years of happiness together.
