Some photos I took at Drive-By Truckers’ bad-ass New Year’s Eve gig at Bowery. It ended around 5:30 AM, though I didn’t stay that late. Catch ‘em next time they play your town at a reasonable hour.

New West is offering some MP3s from The Dirty South, one of the best of 2004…
There’s also a DVD on the way, and you can watch a preview of “Lookout Mountain” here: QT | WMV

I love Drive-by Truckers, always a fun, high energy show. Slightly pissed they did not play here, their hometown: Athens, GA, on NYE.
Patterson’s suit is looking swanky there
they’re playing 3 shows in Athens in 2 weeks anyway:
Thu Jan 20 – Athens, GA – 40 Watt Club
Fri Jan 21 – Athens, GA – 40 Watt Club
Sat Jan 22 – Athens, GA – 40 Watt Club
Yeah, Pat’s wearing a suit? WTF?!
No way the DBT’s would get booed at the Orange Bowl
Plus I’ve never met him but Patterson’s dad can’t be as creepy as Joe
DBT rules, but taking the stage after 2 AM does not. And that was after standing outside for over an hour (good thing it wasn’t cold) and then being penned inside the bar area for another 45 minutes. Maybe I’m too old.
John Kerry still plays guitar?!
DBT’s new year’s shows have often been somewhere else other than Athens. Cool pics!
