Amanda Shires "I Kept Watch Like Doves (aka Murder Ballad)"

Amanda & Rod

Amanda Shires is dewy and young…we wondered if she was even old enough to sign our waiver! And she brought a friend along, as Rod Picott accompanied her, as he has been doing on the road. They make a fearsome duo. They had us entranced with emotion and virtuosity. We love the whole murder ballad concept…how can something so beautiful be so WRONG!

Ahhh age old dilemma, huh! Witness "I Kept Watch Like Doves" and you be the judge.

I admit it, I am spoiled. I have lots of electronic toys which I depend on, and when they fail, harumph! So I guess you could say that I brought this on myself, but here I sit on a Saturday at the Sprint Store in San Antonio. I have been wrassling with a new air card for the last 20 hours and am unable to connect to the web. Yes, I still have the Blackberry, thank goodness for QWERTY keyboards! "Honestly officer, I was just looking for more speed." The old air card was working OK, just slow. But now I am dead in the water as they beta test the 4G card for me. Will keep you posted, that is as soon as I can post!

Back in Business! Thanks Sprint!!

Cross Canadian Ragweed "Burn Like The Sun"

Cody

Hot damn, it's another new song from the brilliant new Ragweed album, Happiness and All The Other Things.

Now, to be sure, we didn't know what to expect...it could have been just Cody up on the Celebrity Coach bus, but we were honored to have the WHOLE band, and they are such a tight outfit. You know what I don't get...it's the people who say they don't get Cross Canadian Ragweed. What? Is it too loud, too joyous, too much like the rock and roll of old that we went to see at The Fillmore? With all due respect, how can you NOT GET this. Q-tips anyone?
