Sturgill was great. He started at 8:50 and played until 11:15. He played the entire last album "Sailors" to start off the show. Afterwards, he dug in to his catalogue from the previous albums. Smoke was rolling in the show, Texas brisket was not to blame. Sturgill made a comment early in the show that it "smelled good in here" - lol. The owner obviously oversold capacity as you could barely move from the entrance to the exit - locals were complaining to no end, however we still had fun. Catch him in the future if you get a chance-his new horn section really complements his act/show!

A good time was obviously had by all - the aftermath...

Went last night as well and he was incredible. Great crowd especially the second set when he got to the stuff the crowd was most farmiliar with.

I thought the "Sailor's" portion of the show was outstanding and it's always great to get to hear an artist interpret his whole album in order live.

Whole thing made even better by EasyTiger who sold his tickets through the board for face rather than take all the money he could have gotten in the secondary market!

I saw stuff getting listed on stubhub for 150 plus and they were actually selling.
