My wife and I are headed over to the show from South Carolina. Anyone have any recommendations on places to stay / eat / visit while in Macon? Is it a cool town? This will be our first Crow show below the Mason Dixon line... |

Macon is a cool town for sure. There are plenty of places in the downtown area to go out for drinks. As far as places to eat go, it really depends on what you like. There's a killer pizza joint called Ingleside Village Pizza that I'll probably be visiting the day after the show. |

I hoped someone would chime in for you, jshort...
Only been to Macon once - my "must see" was Duane and Berry over in the Rose Hill Cemetery. Gorgeous in June - I dunno about late February. |

My thoughts exactly. Also, I thought they might throw in an Allman Brothers number in there somewhere. Anyway, I hope they had a Nu-way weenie before the show! |

I wasn't aware they had done away with the nicknames during band introductions- but yeah, Ketch introduced Kevin as the Georgia Peach Ty Cobb. There were the usual place references scattered throughout the show in the between song banter with a couple thrown into the songs as well.
The venue was pretty cool- old school opera house with balconies and boxes on the side.
The crowd was pretty rowdy- the ushers let people rush the stage, so the aisles close to the stage were full of people about five rows deep, I was called an a**hole by a girl for not letting her stand behind me on my chair, plus there were the usual drunks yelling inappropriately (like the middle of CC Rider where the boys get real low and quiet), tons of clapping and carrying on.
Wagon Wheel was a sing a long all the way through. Minglewood was pretty smoking and the crowd was really into it. Hard to Tell morphed into some weird dissonant music that reminded me of something you might hear the Grateful Dead do during one of their space segments- kind of reverb-y / echo-y weirdness that most of the crowd seemed to eat up. Of the new songs, Miss. Sat Night and Ketch's Tobacco song were my favorites. Ketch said one of them was a live debut.
Overall a pretty good show. I wouldn't rank it my favorite of all time, but if they put on that show every time I saw them I probably wouldn't mind. Additionally, it was my first time seeing OCMS with Corey and he seemed to fit in pretty well. Does he sing Critter's songs now instead of Gil? Songs like Flookie really need to be played with or without Critter. |

The Tobacco song must have been the live debut because they've played Mississippi Sat. Night before, I love the "drinking 40's in a Skylark" part of that song. Cory doesn't do Critter's songs as far as I know. I remember Gil taking a stab at them long ago, but that has since stopped. I agree, there are too many good Critter songs to let them go to waste. |

I do enjoy the trippy ending on Hard To Tell, and Corey can do a fine job singing Critter songs. |

Not that it's important, but I drove a Skylark. |

I believe 40s are large containers of malt liquor, but I could be mistaken. |

I am not doubting you, but Ketch definitely said it was a live debut (as opposed to later in the set when he said one of the other (new to me) songs was a Georgia debut). |

Nothing new at all. Just Ketch being Ketch. All of those new tunes have at least been played a handful of times.
Just my opine, but I greatly prefer Willie singing that Tobacco tune. Very much looking forward to the new album - all these tunes are aces.
jshort - how badass would a few bars of the Mountain Jam inside of a Down South Blues have been? |
