Like butter, I think I am on a roll
here in Little Rock.
Going to see Ben Nichols (Lucero) tonight, solo, at the legendary Juanita’s.
Promises to be a large time.
Solid as a stone.
Drove a super-hybrid (don’t tell my brother) Toyota Prius here yesterday. All I have to say is “wow.” I was getting a little tired of burning fuel on the way down so I … Read more »

Pretty much the best dollar I’ve spent lately.
The local Wafflizzle Hizzle looked like it needed a bailout plan. My jukebox shenanigan, for which has brought me great notoriety and infamy at Waffle House corporate meetings, nearly … Read more »

Here is Tina Fey from last night. While this is funny, the striking similarity of the beliefs represented in this skit to the vice-presidential candidate’s beliefs is nothing short of terrifying. I am convinced that John McCain might have won the election if he hadn’t botched his choice for vp as badly as he did. … Read more »
Little Apple Bound
As James McMurtry says in Choctaw Bingo, “We’re going to have ourselves a time.”
Right on James. I can’t wait to be back in town tomorrow.
I can safely speak for the ATB to say we are all thrilled about opening for Brandon Jenkins and having another opportunity to play at Longhorns.
Personally, I couldn’t be more excited. … Read more »
Living in the Wasteland of the Free
This has to be one of the guttsiest protest songs to date.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I just had a thought I … Read more »

New Chris Knight is up on his myspace: www.myspace.com/chrisknightmusic off his forthcoming album called Heart of Stone. Of course, I am geeked up about this.

Two Weeks Notice
It isn’t quite two weeks but this will have to suffice. No, no I am not quitting.
So I am hanging out in Fayetteville the other day when Mason Powell called and asked if I was up for a 4th of July show in Anthony, KS.
I said, “heck yes,” or something close.
Here is the deal, the … Read more »
If You Want it That Much
Your ears will be ringing like mine.
I have collected a few songs here that I cannot stop listening to. I find a lot my music on XM Satellite Radio’s Channel 12 Cross Country station. It feels like some of my kindred spirits are there spinning the tunes. Here goes. Songs are listed in no particular … Read more »
