We have landed. #furthur

Kinda jealous of our Virginia TBR crew. The Mothership is conjuring up some great memories from last March!

Trey Anastasio Band - Show Of Life
February 8, 2010 - The Jefferson, Charlottesville, VA

Another collaboration between Trey and the Dude of Life, this one has Phish written all over it.  Excellent melody and excellent vocal harmonies.

Lyrics:

It’s no easy road
This struggle and strife 
We find ourselves in the show of life
What’s on the schedule 
What’s on your plan 
Do you ever ignore 
What you don’t understand

Don’t ask me cause I don’t know
I just fasten my seatbelt wherever I go

It’s been perfectly planned, it’s completely insane
It’s a revolving cast but it’s the same old game

Waves of people 
Come and they go
Shine for a while, 
It’s a marvelous show

It’s a limited time that we exist 
We slowly make our way into the mist

My thoughts are racing, 
I see faces 
Of the friends that I recall
I’d like to take this time, 
To thank you all!

Just as the blind imagine
What it is to have sight
We slowly take a stroll
Into the night

It’s no easy road
This struggle and strife

We find ourselves in the show of life!

In the show of life
In the show of life
(Find myself right here)

(via thebutterroom)

This is excellent!

My Morning Jacket - Dondante
12/1/06 - Electric Factory, Philadelphia PA

My Morning Jacket is going back on the road this spring with a swing through the southeast. Damn, I feel lucky that I live in Virginia. Merriweather here I come?

MMJ Spring Tour 2010

(via thebutterroom)

Sometimes it’s no wonder why I’m friends with these guys in The Butter Room. We have pretty damn good taste in music.  Dondante is probably MMJ’s best song in my opinion. But that’s just my opinion.

Now when people ask “What was your favorite concert?”, I can say The GRAMMYs.

I honestly feel a little sad for anyone who has apparently never seen any good live music.

The Grammys Are Such A Joke

Neil Young wins his first Grammy nearly 50 years after beginning his career for a box set (seriously? and it wasn’t even the best box set in the category!), while morons like Eminem and Lady GaGa are busy racking them up left and right for utter garbage?

Luckily, the Grammys only amount to an ass kissing popularity contest, and don’t actually have any reflection on 99% of what’s really going on in music today. My favorite award winner appears to be Jay-Z for “Death Of Autotune.” Kind of ironic that he gets a grammy for a song knocking the substance of probably more than half the evening’s winners. Also, Steve Martin made the best bluegrass album on the planet last year? Ha!
