WesternAF always gets such good sound on the videos. I’m still buzzing from seeing dean in seattle. Real deal.

Besides Yoakam who is the best country actor? I can’t think of anyone aside from Sturgill, but he’s been great in everything I’ve seen him in, although they’ve all been pretty small roles.
Ya, just saw Killers of the Flower Moon last night and loved the cameos. Watson was good in Ballads too.

How can we not mention the legend that is George Strait in Pure Country?

Ryan Adams just announced 4 new albums for sale, 1 novel for sale, and he claims that he has another novel and 4 7" coming soon. Wow. Guy doesn't give up.

Thought Sturgill was good in Gemstones and dreadful in KOTFM.

Would love to see Bingham outside of YS. Because he’s definitely got it in that show.

Musically he is decent. I like him more as an actor.

Ya after Junky Star sorta falls off, but his small acoustic shows he did was one of my favorites.
Ben Nichols brother has made some good movies, really wanna see The Bikeriders. I feel that's "country" adjacent.

Just got Isbell tickets for February. He is playing Gillette Stadium (where the Patriots play) this summer with Zach Bryan, could be hit or miss but I think I'll miss because it's 4 hours away.

I guess he just doesn't really sell out here, which I can't tell if that's on brand or not for this city.

When we saw him at Pier 17, got the tickets same day at face value, and it never sold out. Beautiful weather and a great outdoor venue. My friend regularly photographs him when he performs here and says it’s always the case. Said she hasn’t seen him sell out once.

It's been a good couple of days for country in euroland. Saw Garrett T Capps (twice), then Kassi Valazza and yesterday The Pink Stones, all in the span of give or take a week.

Last time I tried to catch him was 2018 when he opened for Brandi Carlise and it had a line like a mile long to get in and I missed half his set thinking he would be the closer.

first time i saw him, my wife and i were hanging out in the lobby area of the venue, getting our drinks and merch. this guy came up to us and asked if we wanted to play trivia. i said sure, and he asked me some stuff about jason isbell and i answered it all right. he asked for my tickets, took them, and handed us front row center tickets. told us that we couldn’t be on our phones and that we hand to stand the whole time because they were live steaming the show. it was a real cool experience.
second time i saw him, i was able to just buy front row center tickets because for some reason he decided to play the city hall auditorium of the town i lived in. i think before that only like high school battle of the bands happened on that stage. in the middle of “if we were vampires” the fire alarms wen't off, lights came on and we had to evacuate. isbells fog machines were of course too much for the tiny ass venue so they tripped the alarms. came back in and he was like “i guess we’ll just restart that last song” lol. this was january 2020 and the last show i saw before covid.

I’m in NYC I’m sure he sells out plenty, and probably has here, too, but not that I’ve experienced or heard of All that to say, Isbell/400 Unit shows rock. YouTube has some killer, high quality performances. Might have to throw a set on and park it on that couch tonight.

Ha! That rocks. We’ve watched that performance a couple times. It’s one of many good ones up. It’s kinda wild how many there are for this band/artist.
Ryan Bingham has a great one on Amazon Prime, too. But, yeah, I get it’s modern times and everyone has live material online, but Isbell/400 Unit have a fuck ton that aren’t just phone videos. Awesome filming, sound quality, etc.
Yeah, gonna watch one tonight for sure.

Did you guys watch the HBO doc about Jasons latest album? Also I don't think I can stand for a whole show anymore, love a place with seats.
