re: Jason Isbell requiring vaccination proof/negative test for his shows...

You basically just admitted you don’t have taste, you have a radio:

i wouldn't walk across the street to attend a free concert of his...

George Jones has been regarded by his peers of his time to have the best male voice in country music. He would still be famous today. Hank didn't have the modern technology to show how good of a singer he was.

You already like Isbell. You should be comfortable with it.

As is defending some bluecheck progtard because he made some coin off a song about a Marine needlessly killed in Iraq.

That dipsh*t supported Biden so he supports endless globalist wars.

Fr*ck that hypocritical SOS.

WTF does this even mean?

Bigly.

In other news Widespread Panic joined Jason “Who Dafuq?” Isbell with the mandatory vaxxed BS.

Yes, “Widespread Panic”

One last thought...

That song in a way made me think of the following song. This is what that song wants to be like:




When I was a kid Uncle Remus woukd put me to bed
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should know
Then he staggered a little as he went out the door

I can still hear the soft southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
But you ain't afraid if you're washed in the blood like I was
The smell of Cape Jasmine through the window screen
John R. and the wolfman kept me company
By the light of the radio by my bed with Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head

I can still hear the soft southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

When I was in school I ran with a kid down the street
And I watched him burn himself up on Bourbon and speed
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock news
When I was eighteen Lord I hit the road but it really dodn't matter how far I go

I can still hear the soft southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

Yeah what do you do with good ole boys like me




Now, maybe it’s a little unfair to compare Isbell and that song to one of the all time greats. Nonetheless, there’s a big difference in levels between the two in composition and delivery. Both are storytelling and reflections but one just leaves more of an imprint. Isbell’s is simply relayed in a matter of fact manner. Williams’ embodies more mystery, folklore, intimacy, subtlety and depth all at the same time. And there are themes that one can ponder and explore such as trying to outrun one’s past, yet ending up with a bit of sorrowful appreciation at your core, etc. And there is a richness to Williams’ voice; subtle and soft yet chocked full of character, that simply is beyond Isbell’s capabilities.

I’ll listen to more of this Isbell guy. I’m always looking for more quality music. I’ll give him a fair shake and see if I can find some appreciation. I’ll check out more of his work.

Seriously, who?

Lol.


And ironically, if you use the Louisiana definition of assault (last I checked about 24 years ago anyway), a gun that you never see or hear, like a sniper rifle with a silencer from afar that just blows your brains out before you apprehend imminent bodily harm, would NOT be an assault weapon. Just a murder, battery weapon.

But I digress.
