I've seen them out San Diego way a few times. Great musicians. Don't know if they've ever played the venue, but they'd be a perfect act for McCabe's Guitar Shop.<br /><br />VR - Hangin' out and wastin' time in Cabo. Waves are flat but my baby's not.

Up until now, I passed on every opportunity to listen to Punch Brothers stuff because … well … the name, Punch Brothers, and the modern bluegrass take, and … yeah, I know -- small-mindedness. But this was clip was great, and especially the part at the end where some of the band members put down their instruments and quietly walk away from the AV Club stage.<br /><br />Covers have always been for me a way to get a handle on new bands, and if I were to manage a band, I would insist that they cover little known songs by reputable artists, or like the Punch Brothers here, reinterpret better-know songs in their own fashion.<br /><br />On the Steve Deaton 3 album you wrote about a week or so ago, not only is there a really good cover of The Nazz’ OPEN MY EYES, there’s a killer cover of Buck Owens’ TALL DARK STRANGER on the album as well. And from Aerosmith covering TRAIN KEPT A’ ROLLIN’ to Cheap Trick’s SPEAK NOW (OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE) to Tin Huey’s I’M A BELIEVER on to Deaton today, dusting off someone else’s work of art for a new audience always says a lot about bands. And God knows there’s a hell of a lot of great songs and older artists that need new audiences.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13063639986915628650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-65680445675515511952015-11-30T10:37:19.913-05:002015-11-30T10:37:19.913-05:00Just what I needed on a dreary Monday morning, and...Just what I needed on a dreary Monday morning, and a great example of why I love this blog.
