It has been so long.. The Hill Country Revue tour was a wild ride of great music, hard work, arguing, and lots of laughs. We had a triumphant show at Double Decker fest in Oxford to close out the tour and look forward to picking up where we left off Sunday night in Memphis.
We toured the whole month of April with Sundays and Mondays off. I used these days to record more HCR stuff and work with Aaron Julison. He came back down to MS and recorded songs of his own. ‘Popular American’ and ‘ disappear’ are my favorites so far. I hope he lets me post some of the footage. It is hilarious. We are truly dysfunctional and rocking at the same time. We make Wilco look like they know what they are doing..
I’m back on the road with NMA at the moment. It’s a beautiful day in Charleston and I’m looking forward to playing tonight. Pearl Drums sent me a new kit and they make every show feel like Christmas morning. They are Reference series with a midnight fade finish. I think the snare is the nicest drum I have ever seen. It is mahogany, maple, and birch- each ply layered to create the most responsive tone possible.
Anyway, these drums are amazing and I am so grateful to Pearl for hooking me up!!

I've got a rocking picture of the kit you played in Charleston. They are on a digital camera, so let me know how to send them and I'll shoot them over to you. Can't wait to see HCR 8/28
