Whew, what a rough start to the month of November. A festival and couple of concerts under my belt and I still had energy for one more show for the start of the week. I closed out my marathon checking out White Denim at Antone’s along with some other Bonaroo alumni. Now there were some ups and downs but man, I can watch White Denim play for hours on end.

So on November 9th, I was already recovering from both a full Fun Fun Fun Fest and a private whack out with Primus in 3D. It was not enough to keep me home, however, as it was a day for an intimate performance with The Black and White Years at Lambert’s BBQ.

Hey I’m back again and I scored myself a pretty sweet deal seeing Jeff The Brotherhood Monday night. They headlined a small tour and it showed right up at Stubb’s Now, I was entertaining guests at the time so I didn’t get a chance to catch the first band, but I did get to see the 2nd biller along with these tiny little headliners. There was plenty of entertainment for both the tunes and the crowd. Continue reading I Joined Jeff The Brotherhood At Stubb’s
