Routes and Branches Play List 06/05/10

I took my wife up to Portland for her birthday on Thursday to see Lewi Longmire and his band for their regular (6-8pm.)Thursday gig at the Laurelthirst pub. We managed to get the last table before the place completely filled up as the band started. From the first song to the end the dance floor was completely filled with everyone having a great time. Lewi and band mixed it up doing both originals and covers from the likes of Jimi Hendrix to Bob Dylan. We asked folks around us, Is it like this every Thursday night? They replied with a resounding YES!! I suppose it is a good thing that I live so far away, otherwise I would become a regular too. Sorta like church.

This week I also had the Whopner County Country Alstars into the KRVM studio. They have recently released their 3rd album called 7-10 Split. Ten more great Whopner County originals about everyday life from "Deception" to "The Whiskey Wins Again" with that great Whopner Country sound backing them up. In the studio they played one of my favorite Gregg Vollstedt songs called "I'll Be With You Tonight".
