The man in black fled across the desert. . .and the Gunslinger followed after

Folks, it's back, and in a big way. All the authenticity, rawness, passion and true, close to the bone music you can stand. American music. Music too rock for country, too country for rock. Music that has the blues, and the sweat, toil, blood, dreams and hopes of an entire society threading it's way through the mix. My heartfelt thanks to all of you for keeping this going and keeping it alive while I was down with some technical problems, and I'm an extremely fortunate human being to have had all the cards fall into place the way they have to be back up and running about a week ahead of schedule. Artist after artist this week. Shooter and his dad, Waylon. Joe Ely, Steve Earle and Justin Townes Earle. The North Mississippi All-Stars and the Drive-By Truckers, and an appearance by Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, playing together and Kris. Scott H. Biram, Jimbo Mathus, Left Lane Cruiser, Black Diamond Heavies, Joe Buck Yourself. Chris Knight, Reckless Kelly, Micky & The Motorcars, Cody Canada & The Departed. Gary Clark, Jr. and Dave Alvin and the Guilty Men. High or Hellwater, Kevin Welch, Kevin Deal, My Morning Jacket, The Randy Rogers Band and Stoney Larue. Doc Daily and Magnolia Devil, Ryan Bingham and 3 master songwriters; Jackson Browne, Ray Wylie Hubbard and Robert Earl Keen. More coolness, more hipness and more of what you've come to expect. All the technical glitches ironed out and just plain more of everything. Again, my heartfelt thanks to everyone who kept it alive, and my thanks to Shooter for his support.
