    Hell, I’d say Sunday valley and sound and fury are my two faves from him and they are polar opposites. Everything in between was just a bonus. Make art not friends ->> best clock maker on mars :rockin::rockin::rockin:

    I can't hear that song without thinking of flake by jack johnson... think it's because sturgill uses a similar pitch and a portion of the hook is similar too

    S&F is mood music to me. It’s not bad, it’s just got to be the right time. The rest of his catalog is no skip anytime.

    Sunday Valley is legit great, but there’s also plenty of stuff out there of similar sound and quality.

    There ain’t much of anything that sounds like Sound & Fury, which is part of what makes it so special.

    Yea, I agree on Sunday Valley. Not unique. Cool because of Sturgill and what he become.

    I'm not looking for stuff that sounds like S&F, so can't comment on it's uniqueness. You may have a point. Reminds me of Black Keys + Nine Inch Nails + shitty synthesizer.

    He threw in a partial cover of Ramblin Gamblin Man leading into Mercury in retrograde in Detroit. That's cool as hell in my book.

    Very. Why I decided to just wait for Nashville if Im gonna drive that far for a bland venue. Wouldnt have minded him doing a smaller city in state.

    We did the same, but unfortunately had a change of plans and can’t make it to Nashville anymore. I’ll have fun this weekend, but I’m going to be grumpy about it until then.

    Review is mostly accurate to my view, however the inclusion of a banjo by the writer disqualifies it from credibility

    CLT Arena review:

    TCC started at 7:30 sharp as previously noted. Crowd was about half full, filled in after a couple songs. After the fill in, was surreal to see TCC in an arena. He is on a helluva run. Happy for him. 1 hour 15 minute set - tight as hell. Got Hwy 40 Blues.

    In between sets, the wounded warrior that is on the tour comes out and gives about a 10 minute talk about his story, supporting veterans, etc. Justin Lascek https://www.instagram.com/justin.lascek/

    Sturgill's set was as expected. S&F in order. I went to get a beer and that took about 5 songs. So that was fine. Beer lines ridiculous and reminder why I hate arena shows.

    Of note on Sturg: he was far more into the show than I anticipated. The UPROXX article was an act. It is obvious he enjoys playing and performing. He played about 4 or 5 songs longer than I thought he would. Back half of the set was enjoyable, except you can't really hear/understand most of what he sings, which has also been noted.

    Overall very good show.

    I got the impression from listening to him over the years that he loves performing but hates everything else about being on the road.

    Sound and Fury translates amazingly well to the arena setting. Absolutely blown away by the production last night. The synths and guitar driven rock fuck hard. Childers was great, but Sturgill is in a league with few others right now.
