Pix from the Road

Here's the deal. I take random pictures, and offer random insights, as my alt-country group Bucktown Kickback travels and plays show dates across the United States. I make no promises that any profound insights can be gained from this log. I only promise that you may see some profoundly childish, random and possibly entertaining imagery.

Black Mountain, NC

After the radio show, we headed over the Black Mountain, NC to play a show at "The Town Pump". It was our second time playing there. Love that place. You walk in and people have their dogs with them, everyone knows each other... We saw some of the same people we met on our first trip there. Plus they carry my new favorite beer-- it's called Pisgah Pale Ale, and despite what the name might suggest, it's one of the more delicious brews i've had. I don't think you can get it up north, so i will have to wait until we play in Ashville in a few weeks, to get some more.

Jerry, who tends bar (and who happens to be a pretty kick a** touring upright bassist, in his own right) took care of us like only a fellow musician, used to the road, can... He ran sound, comped us domestics, kept the whole place running fine.

Breakfast the next morning was not as good as the joint in Thomas WV, but it was still good.
