Holy shite, I'm still drunk. I agree that the venue as a whole sucks.... lines too long, not having piss pots by the seats and running out of beer? Are you kidding me? Screw you, Tom Benson.

Aside from all that, I have to say I'll never forget last night... at least, those parts I remember. I've listened to Merle my whole life and he's on my Mt. Rushmore of music. The man brought it. Plain and simple.

Kudos to you that came out. Maybe this will help bring more real country music down this way.

Time for a wake-up beer.

I was blown away by Merle. I've seen him in casinos twice and was expecting that type of performance. He got up there, sang his arse off, stood the entire time, and actually performed.

I saw JJ three times at Tx club, one at a warehouse bar in Nola, and with EC and Bocephus in Lafayette (although I don't remember a luck of that one).

Excellent concert, bad venue.
