The Hard Lessons

I saw The Hard Lessons last night @ Windows off The Cumberland in Nashville. wow. I was blown away. I've been a fan of the band for a while now after hearing them on The Plan Nine Rock Show. Seeing them live has now made me a super fan. If all local shows were like this..I'd go see them all the time.

Augie, The Guitar player/vocalist, is a badass ninja on stage. His playing is extraordinary. He really carries his guitar on stage like a weapon. At the end of the set he was doing things with his guitar that had the crowd in shock. He climbed on top of his amp and really put on a show.

Ko Ko, Organist/Vocalist is amazing as well. When she was singing it sounded like the voice of God on stage. I just can't get over how well her vocals were in such a small venue. I was thinking to myself at one point, if this chick went on American Idol, she'd win..straight up. Best live vocals I've ever heard.

The two together have this insane chemistry on stage. Best show I've seen so far this year. They ended the show with Hey, Hey, My, My (a Neil Young cover) and it was mind blowing!!!! If these guys come to your town make sure to go and see them. Get the word out. So i've included a video of Hey, Hey, My, My...check it out!

suprise, suprise.

Phish Fans do drugs....no way.

HAMPTON, Va. – Some Phish fans are leaving Hampton a little lighter than when they arrived for the band's weekend reunion.

Police said Monday they confiscated about $1.2 million in illegal drugs and more than $68,000 in cash from concertgoers. Authorities also arrested 194 Phish fans during the three-night celebration of the band's return to the stage after a nearly five-year absence.

Most of the arrests were for drug possession, use and distribution, police said.

Tourism officials had estimated 75,000 fans would be coming to the coastal Virginia city. Nearly 200 law enforcement officers worked the weekend event, with the Vermont-based band picking up the tab.
