Kind of being forced to go to this show. It's just one of those things that Ephman's wife is forcing him to go to. It's not like he doesn't like the band... but come on how many times does his wife need Ephman to see Rhett Miller sweat all over the place? Gross right?
This was one of the biggest let downs Ephman has ever witnessed from such a great artist. Daniel Lanois' new project dubbed Black Dub came to The Bowery Ballroom and bored the life out of the audience for 90 minutes. OK, they weren't on stage yet... but still you needed to be there to know why.
Every once in a while Ephman accidently finds a musician that he really enjoys and they put a smile on his face. Justin Townes Earle is one of those fellows. He first heard of him when Ephman's wife came home with an album... isn't that how it always starts.
