HONKYTONK AMNESIA & GYPSY BLUES BELLYDANCE.
Everything gets going about 7 pm.
DO NOT have that dang-I-should-have-gone feeling about this show!
It’s going to be hot, guaranteed. If you missed Woody and Nathan and Zack last time please take a moment to check out some the new songs from their new album at http://www.myspace.com/woodypines to get the flava. However, please be reminded that there is no substitution for seeing this band live in a venue like FRED’s.
WOODY PINES plays 20’s & 30’s Jump and Jugband Blues / Old Country/ Ragtime/ Jazz on resonator guitar, upright bass, stripped down drum kit & kazoo/harmonica & voice. This venue is absolutely PERFECT for this band (and vice versa)
We are also very excited to welcome HONKY AMNESIA to Fred’s for the first time. Honkytonk Amnesia is the latest outing for local/national/planetary musician extraordinaire Uncle Roy Shultz.

IN Case Of INCLIMATE WEATHER (WHICH IS LOOKING LIKELY from the Weather Forecast….)
This EVENT is MOVING to FREDS Pickin Parlor in Historic Downtown Loachapoka, Alabama from 6:00-10:00 pm
PLEASE JOIN US ! ! !
Freds is located on Highway 14 outside of Auburn. physical address is 6434 Stage Road , Loachapoka, AL
Thank you Auburn for the Sundown Concert Series at Kiesel Park. County Road 12 was great… homegrown deep south folk music with soul. Alot of dogs were there walking their people. The weather was beautiful…. the rain stayed away from us, knowing how much we’d enjoy the music.
In my family, we don’t watch a huge amount of regular TV. For about 8 years, we had no TV at all. And since then, we’ve preferred DVD and now adding in streaming video off sites like netflix and hulu. More than the average family anyway, I think.
I’ve been looking for videos dealing with Belgium lately, and I stumbled across this episode of a show called Three Sheets. There’s somethings I didn’t like about the show that is much the result of the way I drink beer more respectfully nowdays, definitely avoiding and whenever the issue arises speaking against, some of the guzzling type scenes shown in the intro to the show.
This guys antics aside, I did enjoy seeing the insides of some of the establishments visited, the architecture, and I’m sure that the filming captured what a typical scene is like if you visit Brussels for yourself.
I’d love to visit the Delirium Cafe, which holds the world record for most variety of beers, over 2,000.
The past week or so was one of the worst that can be had, so Julie, Priscilla and I went to Fred’s in POKA on Saturday just to get out and do something. Thanks to Fred’s Feed & Seed, Standard Deluxe and PaPa D’s grill for hosting The Howdies and putting a smile on our faces.
We saw Revolutionary Road tonight and loved it. Some of my favorite scenes were the ones with Michael Shannon as John Givings, a PhD mathemetician and recently former mental hospital patient who’d received 38 electroshock therapy sessions to treat his insanity, while in reality he was simply a man who was ostracized for speaking the brutally honest truth with no regard for socially imposed inhibitions. I highly recommend the movie.
We’re moving on October 16… after nearly 5 years in Austin… one of the best places in the country to live… Here’s some of the things I’ll miss the most (notice how most of it involves food and beer):
Thanks so much to Rick N. and Yoli for inviting us to Threadgill’s on Friday night to see Todd Snider. He was awesome. Go out of your way to see him perform, if you never have.
lyrics from “an alright guy”
I was hanging around in my house
I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked
I was checkin’ it out
Just then a friend of mine came through the door
Said she never pegged me for a scumbag before
She said she didn’t ever want to see me any more
And I still don’t know why
I think I’m an alright guy, I think I’m an alright guy
I just want to live until I’ve gotta die
I know I ain’t perfect, but God knows I try
I think I’m an alright guy, I think I’m alright
Thursday night we went to see Zilker Theatre Production’s “The Secret Garden” at Zilker Park. We had to show up really early to get a good spot and were happy to be able to sit near Jenny, Alicia, Natalie, Casey, Nikki, Mike, Darcy, and Jenny’s parents. This was our first visit to the summer series, which is said to be the “longest running outdoor production of its type in the United States.” (This being the 46th year).
Some brought wine and picknick baskets and looked like they were on a first date. Some seemed like local politicians out glad-handing. But if there was any doubt it was OK to be relaxed and casual, the doubt was dispelled when, right there in the middle of us, this bum plopped down on his blanket, took off his sandels, laid back on the incline and went to sleep. Only the occassional ant, mosquito, and passing beauty were able to rouse him.
Guess who the bum was? Me.
