Aw man, another long standing venue has announced that they are closing their doors. Exit/In in Nashville is calling it quits after 50+ years. It feels like the old independent bar/live music venue concept seems to be dying a slow death – people are going elsewhere for entertainment, or the ones left are being swallowed up by the Live Nation machine. Ugh.
Anyway, I thought it would be fun to share my favorite live recording from this venue. My friend Marcus Winfree lived in Nashville for a stretch and taped all kinds of good stuff down there, including this show. The mix was lacking guitars so I fixed it up a bit. I wish I could have pushed the guitar a bit more, but Carla would have been totally drowned out on the loud songs later in the set.
It sounds like this is one of Nels’ first shows, he was announced as a temporary fill-in for Daniel Keenan.

It’s another NAR weekend! There will be at least 1 more NAR weekend. It’s like heavy metal parking lot weekend, but cooler.
I hope everyone is having fun at Record Store Day- I sat this one out. Way too much stuff over here. I hope everyone gets what they wanted. So Dal (phono Select) and Steve (Audio Nerd), I’m not cheating on you, just abstaining this year.
