In a word... WOW
Old crow medicine show were great. They have more than one song about grass and cocaine and grain alcohol. 4 young men that like to party I think. Though, if they are poor, I don't know how they afford cocaine. Wouldn't meth be more their speed? (/smartass)
Gillian and Dave were fantastic. There were times I thought there were 3 guitars being played. I'd look at Dave's hands and wonder how on earth he was playing those notes.
I have never heard a sadder or more meloncholy version of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (yes you read that right and I'm not kidding). It was great!
They ended the 2nd set (the show was 3 and 1/2 hours) with I'll fly away. Then, for the encore they brought out the Old Crow Medicine Show and blew us back with a couple of traditional songs (something about Iron John or Iron Henry) and something else.
I enjoy live shows but don't go to many these days. I have seen to many where the performers were working and not enjoying. There was no doubt in my mind at all they they were all having a great time and were excited that we were there to join the fun. I loved it.
I am seriously considering getting a ticket for the show tomorrow night. At the least I'll be hitting Amoeba records for some new CDs tomorrow. If you are near the bay area and can go or if they are coming to your area GO. You will not be disappointed.

Tonight at the Fillmore on Geary/Fillmore. It looks like tickets are still sold out thought.
Here is her tour schedule. She is playing at Cal State in Chico on Sunday.
If you are near any of those venues, go! I had a great time.
