    They just have similar styles and are both from Alabama. I know Patterson and Jason have both publicly praised her.

    I might go just because the venue is close. I’ve only listened to a few of her songs but really enjoyed her cover of Streets of Philadelphia

    Saturday before Dawes plays, Julien Baker is in Atlanta. She may have my favorite album of the year.

    Never listened to the entirety of Palmetto rose because I didn't really like they intro/verse. Heard the ending on PGA tour radio of all places. What a song.

    Definitely one of those songs I always forget about but get really excited when it comes on.

    Bought four tickets to Dawes in Atlanta. Can’t wait. One of the last things I did before the pandemic was the 2020 homecoming shows. Hopefully we can get this Dawes show in. Would be nice (as nice as it can be) to start and finish this thing seeing my favorite bands.

    What if I were to tell you that nothing of the sort has been said prior to today, so thank you for the affirmation. I’ve always said you were probably the smartest and best poster here. I go largely unnoticed on TMB, but that is likely attributable to limiting myself to only sporadic shitposting over the last decade or so.

    SMTF was the album that got me into Isbell, and I always loved that song bc of the references to the Charleston area where I grew up. Then he opened with it at my first Isbell show, and it’s been a top tier song of his for me ever since.

    I think it’s the opener for that Boston House of Blues show on YouTube as well.

    Yup grabbed tickets yesterday during the presale. Old Crow the week before too. I’d like to hit the Dawes show but it’s a weekday and three shows in two weeks is hard to pull off with a 20 month old and a 3 month old.

    It he lyrics to Overseas get kinda overlooked because the music is so incredible but goddamn at the lines:

    And I saw you in our daughter’s eyes last night
    When she caught me in a lie
    And I needed you here to make both of us believe
