Does anyone like this stuff?

Post by Izzyman »

I'm pretty wired right now on Mountain Dew and ice tea so I will be up until 1:00. Anyway I thought I'd see if anyone else liked my favorite band(the guys in my sig.) They're way out of the main stream so if you don't like countryish folky music don't even bother. Here's alink to their site where you can hear interviews they did on npr and a music video. http://www.crowmedicine.com/ I know there's a one percent chance anyone will like this band but if I can bring on person to the light that would make this post worth it.

I have never heard of them. What kind of music do they play? Where are they from?

By the way, I'm wired up on cold alcoholic beverages! :TimeForGuinness: :thumbup:

I haven't heard of that band before, but I like the style of music. My wife is actually a big bluegrass fan, so she'll like this stuff too!

Thanks for pointing them out to us!

I love Old Crow Medicine Show. Most people know them for their song "Wagon Wheel" (which is a treasure that I recommend to anyone), but I really love their cover of "CC Rider" as well as "Trials and Troubles."

If I had to describe their music, it's bluegrass but with a punk-like intensity.

I've heard these guys are pretty big Cardinals fans as well. They performed at Mississippi Nights last year wearing Cards jerseys. The one wearing the George Hendrick jersey supposedly even grew his hair to look like him.

This is a line from their song Caroline:
We were the Cardinals' biggest fans
Turnin’ flips like Ozzy Smith all through the night
‘Til we got traded away
To the Red Clay Southern League up on the Georgia line
You be the pitcher and the catcher too
I’m the home run king before his muscles grew
Gonna knock the cover off this time

Those are some great songs.

I'm a big fan of OCMS. I was going to comment on your sig a few days ago.

I can't get enough of their version of 'Wagon Wheel'.
