Walt Wilkins "Trains I Missed"

, ,

Having had the magical experience of seeing Walt play the KNBT Americana Jam in New Braunfels, TX this past Sunday, I was once again struck by just how good a songwriter he is. Evocative lyrics that take you on a journey...speaking of this, he is readying a moving new album, not sure when it will be out! But anyway, back to Walt's lyrics. Seeing him perform "Trains I Missed" is homage to the random things that happen to us all, that shape our lives, that make us the people we are. What a song. Here it is from the stage at Threadgill's.

Scott Miller "Killed In Virginia"

,

So...as Jessie Scott tears it up down in New Braunfels at the Americana Music Jam, her boys (Ben, Beans, and Aaron) headed to Virginia to check out a Scott Miller show. Folks, we were not disappointed at all. Scott was in pure form...drinkin' shots from audience members, and singing great songs like this one: "8 Miles a Gallon." 

We screwed up though. Shortly after the show, our mongoloid camera guy Ben sent out a Tweet that read, "Scott Miller Killed in Virginia tonight! Video to follow!" This caused a mini shit-storm, as folks immediately assumed that Scott was literally killed and that we would post video of it. No, Scott is alive and well. He simply killed in the musical sense. Sometimes we are stupid. And by stupid, we mean idiotic. And by we, we mean Ben...


Anyway...we recorded the entire set and will bring you more video in the weeks to come.
