  • I’ve Never Mentioned Brian Davis Before?

    Really? My apologies!

    For folks in the Triangle, there’s a good chance you already know the name Brian Davis – or Brian Davis Live. For those of you in the other parts of the country, take any opportunity you get to see Brian near your own town… you WON’T be disappointed.

    For all of you current fans looking for any last minute holiday gifts, be sure to check out Brian’s merchandise… I just got an email from Cole (Brian’s marketing manager) today who says:

    “We are trying to clear out as much merch as possible to get ready for a brand new 2009 line up. For a limited time order any Brian Davis t-shirt or CD and receive a free koozie AND a free exclusive full-length MP3 off his yet to be titled fourth studio album!! Visit the store now and do a little shopping!!”You heard the man!

    PS – Be on the lookout for Brian’s 4th studio album coming in January 2009!

    This new record will feature 12-15 brand new tracks including “When Hank Comes Back”, “Summer Back”, “Thank God She’s a Country Girl”. There will be an album release party at City Limits Saloon in Raleigh.PS #2 – I will NOT be missing the farm party in ’09. Not a second of it.

  • I Have a New Favorite…

    including “Toes”.

    And if I have my way, they’ll be playing at Buckhead in January… *crosses fingers*.

    By the way, ReverbNation.com is a realllllly fun website.

  • Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

    My favorite “crazy ex-girlfriend” is Miranda Lambert! I am STILL crushed that I missed her concert at City Limits a few years back.

    So this afternoon, I’m sitting in my living room watching GAC’s “Origins” on Miranda and as all entertainers – she has lots of merchandise with her face and name on it. She was taking viewers on a tour of her store (an actual store!) in her hometown (Longview, Texas according to Wikipedia) that two of her friends from high school run and she profiled her WINE! Yes, WINE! Her mom went on to talk about how she met a man who owned a winery and wanted to get his name out by possibly giving her some. Miranda’s reaction was “Sure! I mean if you’re going to give me some free wine!”

    Want to know more about the winery?

    Cellared and Bottled by:
    LouViney Vineyards & Winery, LLC
    Winnsboro, Texas
    http://www.louviney.com/    So here’s her wine, her favorite being “County Road 233” and I thought “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” was just a great looking bottle and label:

    I’ll be sure to update if I get myself a bottle! (Which of course, I’ll purchase along side a “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” koozie!)

  • Update: We Spend Our Summers at the Creek

    My original post, lives here.

    Walnut Creek, (formerly Alltel Pavilion), Time Warner Cable whatever it is now – identity crisis aside – has done an EXCELLENT job putting together an exciting “season” (I mean, it does last from April to October) for 2008! Last year, I would have swore up and down they were on the verge of going out of business having lack luster events planned other than the standard six or seven country concerts and the loss of their title sponsor.

    This year however, a better Mega-Ticket line-up including Tim McGraw, and incorporating Maroon 5, Tom Petty, Journey, James Taylor, and Jack Johnson into their schedule guarantees that less of my paycheck will ever make it into savings.

    Are you an Outlook or Google calendar junkie like me? I added the events into a comma separated values file (perfect for importing) of almost all of the shows. Anything that gets added from here may or may not get updated… but I’m saving everyone a good 30 minutes.

    Here ya go!

  • Check This Guy Out: David Thibodeaux

    He found me on MySpace and his message is one that can’t be ignored. As an actively serving U.S. Marine and part-time musician, this is his clever retort to the Dixie Chicks’ “Not Ready to Make Nice”. He’s not a once-in-a-lifetime stand-out voice, but as the cousin of a fallen Marine I’m well aware of the dedication that past, current, and all future Marines have to protecting our country and it’s citizens and I’m more than glad to support this Marine and his music.
