Hi everyone, I thought I'd delurk from digest to say again how I just love the music of that Gerald Collier. Don Yates, you are a lucky man to see him. I guess I better start searching for his first album. Reading on digest is pretty much impossible. With about 150 posts a day I don't even have the patience to read through the subject headings. However, I did see the subject "Gerald Collier" and I had to chime in. Now, back off to lurkdom. Sorry, I didn't add anything to this at all. What a boring post this was. Oh, hold it. I do have something. Tift Merritt and the Carbines (the buzz of the town) will be playing a show on Valentine's Day at Henry's Bistro in Chapel Hill. Earlier that day she'll be on my shift with a fiddle player (2pm EST, 2/14). Check her out. I saw her with her band last Thursday night and they were totally freaking amazing. Great country vocals. WXDU is live on the internet so anyone (with a computer and a modem) can tune in. www.wxdu.duke.edu Tift and the Carbines have a new seven inch coming out which will triple their commercial output at this point. Redeye will be distributing it. I assume (hope) that Miles of Music will carry it (they should!) She did a duet with John Howie from the $2 Pistols the other night. It was a great Bobby Bare song that I'd never heard before called something like My Husband/My Wife...basically a cheating song where each cheater is already married. Cheers.
