EMBRACE YOUR INNER HILLBILLIE
Last nite, Chris and I went to the Old Crow Medicine Show show at the Henry Fonda. It was....FAN-fucking-TASTIC!!!!
OMG...I've only seen the band twice before. Once at the Bluegrass Fest in San Fran, and then at the Grand Ole Opry. This buried both those shows straight into the earth's core. Yeah..the sound was a little low. But the boys played 2 extraordinarily rocking sets that had me stomping my feet on the ground for the full 2 and a half hours. I LOVE THIS FUCKING BAND!!!
And the hillbillies...oh, the Los Angeles hillbillies who gathered round and joined in the hoe down. They were so pretty...so dirty...so awesome.
Chris and I got there and started the night with a shot of whiskey and a beer. Very appropriate, if you ask me.
Anyway...it was a night of good music, crazy decision-making, lost voices, and some serious foot-stomping.
HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT: Hearing the entire crowd sing Wagon Wheel with OCMS. It was fucking beautiful.
If this show accomplished anything..it just made me even more excited for the Bluegrass Fest in October.
I can't fucking wait.
All hail (good) Country Music.
Bad Country Music can Suck It!
