It's funny how everyone knows that band and would turn out in droves but when it's just Cody Canada or the Departed it'll be 20 people. At the Dallas Brewfest last year my wife and I basically had a private show. There were literally 5 people counting us watching the band for the first 15 minutes. Granted it was a very poorly ran festival but still, it was Cody Canada!

I think it's the sound difference of the two bands. While not huge there is definatly a difference there. I never cared much for ragweed, people calling them ccr always rubbed me wrong.

I try to make the small shows. Hanks, the mule barn, and the point on lake texoma have been my favorite spots so far. Though I may try to make it more to the capital bar before it gets too hot for the Ranch's Wednesday night thing

Looks like I'll get to catch Bleu Edmondson in May, hopefully he'll put on a good show.

Here is another thats pretty good despite that Pat Green gets a lot of shit for going Nashville. I really like the song since it's kinda a "things to do" list of Texas and I can luckily say that I have done most.

I have yet to see bleu put on a bad show. He played for us about 6 times before I left the venue. He was always a blast to party with!

Some of Corb Lund's newer stuff and Max Stalling are some of my current favorites.

Song that was playing as I pulled into work this morning. Some Bingham, windows down and cool air made for a somber drive in....

This was on the radio this morning when I was headed to work, this song always gets a laugh.



And Bingham has some really good tunes out there.

Speaking of put of the ordinary. Look up mule time on youtube by AJ and the whiskey rebellion. Owner of the bar/venue I used to run is good friends with AJ Vallejo, front man for the Austin group Vallejo. He produces a lot of stuff for texas artists. It is a song that he put together to help promote the Drunken Mule in commerce, he came up a couple of weeks ago and shot the video and put on a free show

How did we get through this thread with no mention of Casey Donahew Band? These guys put on a really good show and Casey is a very nice guy.

Aaron Watson has been getting a lot of playing time on our local station, most notably this song which is another knock out for him.

Ill never go see them again. They oversell for him and the experience ends up sucking. And funny you say he is a nice guy, the couple people I know that have met him all say his a dick

He has always put on a good show up here, even has been found out in the crowd watching the opening act play. Seemed pretty nice talking to after a show visited for about 20min.

We heard the same things before he came and played for us when I was running a venue in Commerce. He turned out to be one of the cooler laid back artists. Him and the rest of his band partied with us until 3 AM. He even went out of his way to listen to a couple of songs I wrote and give me some feedback. I will agree that a lot of venues are overselling shows and killing the experience. However, the bands are asking ever increasing guarantees, and venues can either raise prices, oversell their capacity, or not have the acts

saw Stoney Larue last night at Red and Barneys Backyard in Bridgeport. pretty cool place since it was basically all outdoor.

it was their grand opening so i think some of the breaks between artists and start time were a little off. beer was pricey at $4 a can . the opener Blackjack Billy put on a good show and had a kind of southern rock meets country sound. i'd like to see where they go as they are a new band.

Stoney sounded great but his show was boring. there was no real show to it..he didnt interact with the crowd really at all while we were there. in fact we got bored with him at left about 6 songs in.

I won't see Stoney again unless he puts out some new music.
