What’s up everyone!? Man oh man have we been having an absolutely amazing time up here in Michigan! The shows have been going great, and our time in between has been excellent too. We’ve been able to visit some of the most beautiful lakes and local hang out spots, and we’ve got plenty of good memories and photos to take home with us!

Blissfest 2016!!

Yeah y’all, it’s been beautiful to say the least, and tonight is our last night in Michigan! So if you’re in the Three Rivers area, come join us at the Riviera Theatre tonight! We’ll be kicking things off at 8pm! Tickets are $10 at the door so get in early and get you some good seats!

…..

Also, it has come to our attention that we need more fun, fan shot media. So if you’ve got some videos/photos from the Dirty Bourbon River Show, share it with us!!

This gem comes from our friend Corrie G. in Lansing! Thanks Corrie and well done! nick.linus.jpg

What’s up everybody?! It’s been a while since the last BBR post, so today I’m choosing a special record I found back at Florida at Beach Records!!

IMG_2983.JPG
Levon Helm & the RCO AllStars!

I can’t tell you how excited I was  when I pulled this out of the crate y’all! I’ve been a Levon Helm fan for a long time now (how can you not be) and this record was truly an excellent find. Not only did I get the man behind the drums, but the lineup has more talent than you can shake a (drum) stick at – the Blues Brother’s band, Paul Butterfield, and Dr. John are all on this album! Does it get any better? Yes it does, because the not only do all of the songs sound great, but the album artwork MIGHT be even better!

We’re back in DC tonight at the gorgeous Hamilton to share the stage with the Bumper Jacksons! Doors open at 6:30 and show time is at 7:30! See y’all there! Oh and if anyone knows of a place to crash tonight in the Baltimore/DC area please let us know

For today’s edition of BBR, I’m picking my new copy of Rage Against the Machine’s self-titled album. I received this record as a birthday gift last week, and I just can’t stop looking at it.

This vinyl edition marks the 20th Anniversary of the initial album release. As many RATM fans know, the album cover for this release features the historical photograph of the self-immolation of Thich Quang Durc. However, this new XX edition of the album features the image on the vinyl itself.

So because it is Earth Day and because people need a real swift kick in the ass when it comes to caring for our planet, I’ve chosen this album. I hope it lights a fire in you today.

Tonight we’re in Brooklyn, NY at the Brooklyn Bowl opening for folks rockers Cabinet! Show starts at 8pm.

See y’all there. ~Boots.

So I’ve picked up about a dozen records on this tour so far, some in stores and some as gifts (thanks again to Chuck and Marg for the Beatles records!), and they’re all gonna be great to hear once I’m back home.

Here’s some of what I’ve picked up so far….

Mandrill – Mandrill Is – Ape Is High

Elton John – Madman Across the Water

The Beatles – Live at the Hollywood Bowl – Twist and Shout

I also got a hold of two Herb Alpert & Tijuana Brass records, two Sly & the Family Stone, The Platters, The Miracles, and more… Looking forward to posting up some photos when I get home.

Come join us tonight in Annapolis, MD as we make our debut at the classy Rams Head On Stage. Show time is 8pm. See y’all there!!

Hope you enjoy!

Well folks maybe I can be of service. See yesterday Jimmy went off to the huge Musical Instrument Museum here in Phoenix and came back with all sorts of photos for us. Looking through his shots of various world percussion from various countries really set me back in my chair – I’ve got so much to learn! So I began digging.

As I searched around for different world drums and sounds, I came across a website I will probably be spending a majority of the remainder of the year scanning through. Its catalog of artists is literally that grand!

WOMAD, World Of Music, Art, and Dance, is an international festival bringing together artists from all over the globe, and all of their featured artists deserve high praise. It’s an organization I hope that we can be apart of someday.

Please check it out and let me know what you think. Let me know who you’ve listened to. And of course let me know if you find some hip-shaking, heart-pounding rhythms.

Here’s what I’ve been listening to today! Enjoy and share!!

Congo/ Dom. Republic – Staff Benda Bilili – “Moziki”

Indonesia – Marsada Band – “Sada Do”

Japan – Osaka Monaurail – “Quicksand”

There’s so much out there. Get up. Get Out. Explore. We’re not meant to stay in one place for too long!

Tonight…we’re in Tucson, AZ. at Club Congress. Doors at 8. The first group, Duende Wall, who we just can’t seem to find online, will be starting things at 9. We’ll be shaking things down at 10!

See y’all there – Boots.

The other night in Grand Junction we met a couple of street artists who were working on the side of the music club, Sabrosa. These guys were so good we had to share it with y’all!

So this will be the start of a new segment we’re calling…

“Urban Art”

ENJOY!

0 The World’s Largest Drum Kit

Yes folks it has been done. Thirty-five years and 813 pieces later, Mark Temperato, who goes by the stage name RevM, has built the world’s largest drum kit!

drums1

Some of the parts are as far as seven or eight feet away from each other, but he’s able to hit each piece from his throne, which is impossible to see from the front.

…I can’t imagine how much money he’s spent….

But…

I can keep track of how much money our Kickstart has raised…and as of now we are still behind schedule…we have 5 days to go folks, and we really need your help! We’ve got a producer and a studio all set…please continue your support and help us make this next album a reality!!

0 The Secret Wu-Tang Album

Y’all hear about this one yet? A new top secret Wu-Tang album has surfaced… And get this… They will only be selling one copy of it to the highest bidder…

20140513-131106.jpg
Apparently the RZA has already been offered 5 mil for it. You can already peep a 51 second sample of the album (which oddly enough, features Cher) on Forbes.com. It was produced over a 6 year period by Cilvaringz under “the tutelage of the RZA”, and is currently being held in a vault in the Grand Mansour in Marrakesh.

Not making this up.

DBRS at CSPS in Cedar Rapids, IA tonight at 7pm.

Wu-Tang.
