If you chained Iggy Pop to a hillbilly blues explosion and then reanimated his corpse with a punk-country hex and then put a hat and glasses on 'em you'd get Col. J.D. Wilkes, lead singer of Th' Legendary Shack Shakers.

For the fire and glory of unholy fun, if you haven't seen the Shack Shakers, you need to.

Last night I caught the Shack Shakers


who played these songs:


but the The Hackensaw Boys played first



as did local band, Tangleweed. And all of this foot stomping, ass shaking, sweat-flinging goodness happened
at the Double Door:




And of course it was grand-stacking-fucking-phenomenal. Wilkes is a fearless sonofabitch and one of the best lead singers nigh on ever.
 

music, shows, th' legendary shack shakers
