On the McMurtry tip, he and Jason Isbell put on a hell of a show here in Raleigh last night. It's a co-headlining tour so both artists get full 1.5 hour sets. If it comes your way, it's definitely a no miss. Jason's being teamed up with some great artists this tour. In addition to McMurtry, there's...

Just got home from seeing Slaid Cleaves in Dallas. I like him. A lot. The only time I ever saw Guy Clark, Slaid opened for him. I thought he was really good. He's such a good songwriter ... his tunes are simple-sounding, but they're intricate and complicated on second/third/fourth pass. The new LIV...

Safe travels. Welcome to Texas ... see you Tuesday at Zax's in Austin!

During the show, I was thinking that he and Townes have a lot in common. Tall, dark, thin, strong pipes, good picking skills, great storytellers and the ability to hold a room spellbound.

Kevin: He talked about Karen and writing with her ...

I think he's brilliant. Love that he writes his own songs. I don't think he did one cover last night. He did bring up Townes ... which is good, but he didn't do anything but his own, rich, complicated, story-telling songs. I don't think anyone took a breath during "Lydia." He said it's his...

Okay .... Reservations made in my name (Mathews, not Parrothead :wink: ) at Zax's (right across the street from the venue) for 5 ... they start dinner service at 6 ... pre fixe $30 appetizer, entree, desert - but we're not married to it. We can park and stay parked. Am so looking forward to this sho...

Finally have a day off to myself. Have been listening to THIS ONE'S FOR HIM all day ... it just gets better and better with each pass. COLD DOG SOUP is still the standout for me, but I'm also loving MY FAVORITE PICTURE OF YOU (a new one he wrote for Jerry Jeff to close the compilation), Terry Allen'...

Talked with Verlon Tuesday ... he shared stories about the recording sessions for "This One's for Him."

I seriously believe this is going to be one of the most important records in recent Texas music history. Am so glad I have tickets to the show in Austin.

This is great good news. I missed your face at Frisco this year!

You got it, sistah!

Thanks. You rock.

Nancy ... I haven't heard from my friend ... she's on a "TTT," only I don't think the tacky part applies. Won't be back until the end of the month ... so ... why don't you go ahead and make reservations (if they take them) for us at Zax? I think there will be 4 in my party ... DAB will hop...
