First things first: The Grey A have a brand new video for their timely song "Dumb Fool". It's a fun film noir style video which includes our old friend Howard Rabach pounding on a table. Check it out here:
Second of all, I had a great time seeing Darrin Bradbury and The Fran's Eastside Super-High Band deliver a stellar set at The 5 Spot last night.
Careful readers will recall that back in September yours truly had two reviews featured on the No Depression website. One was for The Grey A's album My Country and the other was for Darrin Bradbury's album Motel Oatmeal.
Now there is another coincidental connection between the two - if you look at picture above, at the extreme right of the picture - kind of in the shadows on the picture is Trombone player Diego Vasquez who joined the Super-High band last night and also played with The Grey A when I saw them at The Stone Fox (and played on The Grey A album I believe).
Finally, I need to announce that there are big, big things in store for #E2TG in the coming new year. (Translation: I am basically punting the last month and a half of 2014 so expect nothing from me until after New Years by which time I hope you will have forgotten that I promised "big, big things")
Seriously, the Shuffles will continue unabated... well mostly unabated.... well just somewhat abated... well at least occasionally unabated...
