Would do this. I heard their shows are a lot of fun


They opened up for Depeche Mode in Houston last month. They did a 45 minute set and it was shite. Couldn't understand the singers voice as it was DROWNED in reverb/echo. Apart from the intro's to the songs it sounded like a wall of noise.

I'll briefly come out from behind my lurking window to suggest Father John Misty.

I'm pretty sure they're not playing together anymore. Could be wrong though


ETA: Actually according to Wikipedia they're in the studio recording a new album right now. That should be awesome. Always was my favorite Jack White project

Add Soulive and Simplified to my long list. I figure both of those would be attainable. I'm on a long road trip so ill probably be bumping this thread a few more times.

Replied to a similar thread about a year ago and all my suggestions went unheeded (is it because I only have about 5 posts ever?), so here we go again:

Portugal. The Man
Chris Knight
Ryan Bingham
Lucero
Son Volt
Drive-By Truckers
Down
Micky & the Motorcars
Shooter Jennings
Yonder Mtn
Old Crow
Jim James (pipe dream maybe?)

For your consideration...see yall again in a year when I make my next post
