    Edit: Hit play for the part when he talks sobriety. The two shows I've been to and the one's I've watched always cheer at this part which is awesome.

    Love it. Wish we didn’t have to wait 3 months for the album but I’m guessing it’s due to the tour schedule behind the release

    Be Afraid reminds me of Cumberland Gap or Hope the High Road. Not my favorite version of Isbell but a powerful song with a catchy melody. It's fun to see him grow as a writer. I am very excited for the whole album. I wish he would just release Overseas with it, he plays it at every show.

    Definitely a bummer, but the Williamsburg show will be cool change of pace/outdoor venue. I may try and do Wolf Trap as well...but it’s a Thursday which is a bit tough.

    How do you not like psychedelics? That's what I want to know.

    Anyhow, Isbell also said he abused "painkillers." Not sure which specifically though.

    So it's safe to say new album will be more Nashville sound than southeastern?

    Probably. That seems to be where he’s headed. Overseas definitely has a Nashville Sound feel to it. That being said I know “Letting you Go” is a slow ballad about his daughter, so I’m sure there will be plenty of good acoustic songs on there as well.

    Presale was a mess, but I was able to grab two tix in the 8th row. It’s a smaller outdoor venue, so should be pretty fun.

    Roxy ticket for Isbell after fees is more expensive than an upper Ryman ticket for Isbell. I’m thrilled for him, but my issue is more with the Roxy.

    I'm down for a rocker of an album, but assuming all of the new songs I have heard, the other two are slow songs. The song about his daughter (Letting you go) and the song about his buddy committing suicide and assuming they make it on the album may make it a good mix of songs.
