I don't know about that. The "American" albums were generally soul-stirring, bone-chilling good country songs.
The only country music I'll listen to is Neko Case and that's not even really country. My friend's brother is Jamey Johnson. He makes respectable country music but I won't listen to it. It just doesn't do anything for me.
Does Bluegrass count as Country Music? Because I loves me some banjo.
George Jones and Merle Haggard are still on this side of the grass.

Jamey Johnson is more like Merle, in terms of writing, than he is most crap out today.
At least he drinks and writes songs about being a letdown.

I saw the Avett Brothers on Wed night -- outstanding performance. Hopefully will be getting tickets to their show in Toronto at the end of the summer. Unintentional highlight of the night: the couple sitting behind us who very obviously bought the tickets months ago, before they'd broken up, who were arguing about their failed relationship. To add insult to their injury, it turned out that their tickets were actually to the previous night's performance, and they got booted from their seats during Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promises.
Carter USM are back together and touring, and they've just announced the support for their Brixton Academy gig in November: Ned's Atomic Dustbin (http://us1.campaign-archive2.com/?u=3d87f020058178d4314f37fe6&id=635086282b). I saw Carter once before at the Academy, years and years ago, supported by Inspiral Carpets but this might be even better. Who's up for it? I can get accommodation in London for anybody that wants it...
I don't know (nor really care) if The Dropkick Murphys are a Desipio-approved group (even if they once were), but have any of you seen them live? They are going to be at a venue in Champaign called the Canopy Club. I saw Yonder Mountain there earlier this year and it was a fantastic venue... Based on that, I saw go, but are they worth the $32.50 price (more likely $45 after fees/taxes)?

I saw them like a decade ago. I seem to recall enjoying myself. In spite of the skinhead who tried to punch me in the nuts.
But, really...
$45? Think of how many ringtones you could listen to at home for that money.

The Dropkick show I saw about a decade ago was pretty damn good. Except for the hippie with slammin' hair that I tried to punch in the nuts.
But that was Pre-Tessie Dropkick.

Why the sarcastic remark? I know you are also a fan of the Avett Brothers - but there's no indication on the forums that I could find that you were even aware they were returning to Chicago in the near future.

meh. Their studio stuff may be kind of calm and all. The last two albums have some great, fun, quick songs. Also, their live shows, extremely fun, energetic, and fast paced.
I mean, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but just throwing it out at "middlebrow Starbucks music" is short selling it.
Also, their album debuted at #4, so I kind of get the dislike

2 nights, 2 cities, 2 very different venues, 4 hours of music. The Avett Brothers can rock a dick completely off
That explains a lot.
Not sure if rock is the correct term. Folk a dick off, maybe.
Bore a dick off?
I would have gone there but didn't feel like ranklin' - so thank you.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to be so bitchy, but someone has to keep the standards for "rocking a dick off" higher than middlebrow Starbucks music.
meh. Their studio stuff may be kind of calm and all. The last two albums have some great, fun, quick songs. Also, their live shows, extremely fun, energetic, and fast paced.
I mean, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but just throwing it out at "middlebrow Starbucks music" is short selling it.
Also, their album debuted at #4, so I kind of get the dislike
#4 on the Starbuck's metal and latte charts.
To say people judge music based on chart standing is insane. That would imply that I actually look at charts.

Seriously. I judge music based on how not-boring it is.
Also, their cd is on sale at every Starbucks I've been at lately. And is middlebrow.

Now I won't get into the whole Avett thing, but it was a great concert. Not only did they "rock out", but Northerly Island is by far the best outdoor concert venue around and probably top 3 venue in Chicago.

The previous two times I've seen them it was much more low key, with both of the guys seated the whole time. The first time, I don't even recall them having a drummer. November's show was much more of a straight up rock show. Not necessarily worse or better. Just different.
Kurt Vile (http://www.lincolnhallchicago.com/Shows/05-14-2013+Kurt+Vile+and+the+Violators), anyone? I got a couple of tix. Really looking forward to this show.
Also, anyone here a fan of Sigur Ros? They're playing UIC in April.
