hey, howdy, hi! ive been obsessing over the truckers for the past week or so, which is not a bad problem to have and it does happen quite often. when southern rock opera came out in 91 i was living in chicago, and while i loved the record i dont think i necessarily think i got the "southern" thing. granted i had been to the south, but not really experienced the south outside of touristy type places. it wasnt until i moved down here that i really started to get whatever "it" is. the songs definitely resonate more personally now than they did back in 91 and remains one of the best records from past 15 years or so. here they are performing the classic, southern rock opera , over the course of two evenings @ the zephyr in salt lake city on 1.18/19.02. thanks very much to the original taper! buy it via amazon – fyi, the player isnt really working for this, for some reason, so if you want to listen just click the link, or just download as per usual.
