Dale Watson In-Store Videos

Hey, remember that Dale Watson in-store we had? Super fun, right? Well, our pal Stuart at the delicious Community BBQ (who provided sliders that night) pointed out a few videos some intrepid music lover shot that night. They're all embedded below. Thanks, Gatorrock787!

Dale Watson Photos

Thanks to everyone who came out to hang with us and Dale Watson on Wednesday. Thanks especially to Stuart at Community BBQ, who made sliders for a few hours. Delicious! Enjoy the photos. Click to enlarge and/or download.

UPDATE: Dale Watson & Community BBQ time change. Plus, a sale!

Pardon the interruption, but tonight's times have change. Because of the inconvenience, starting at 6pm, everything in the store is 10% off until closing. At 7:30pm, we'll have the pulled-pork sliders from Community. At 8pm, Dale Watson will perform. Thanks, hope to see you then!

Dale Watson In-Store Performance
On Wednesday, September 22nd at 8pm, we'll have legendary alt-country songwriter Dale Watson, a man the All Music Guide describes thusly: "A staunch adherent of old-style honky tonk and Bakersfield country, Dale Watson has positioned himself as a tattooed, stubbornly independent outsider only interested in recording authentic country music. As a result, but his music has been championed by numerous critics and alternative country fans." Count us as the latter! He'll play a full set at Smith's Olde Bar later that night.

Also, pulled pork sliders!
Our friends at Community Q BBQ will be bringing us a batch of pulled pork sliders for the Dale Watson in-store. Delicious, and they aren't even on the menu! Speaking of the menu, you should all click right here and check it out. A lot of folks have been saying a lot of nice things about Community, and we agree: It's easily some of the best barbecue in all of Atlanta. We're proud to get to serve some of it up alongside Dale Watson.

We'll have some tasty beer as well, of course, for the 21+ set.

Oryx and Crake & Dale Watson In-Stores!

On September 11th, we'll have new local band Oryx and Crake playing the store. O&C have been getting some stellar write-ups on local blogs, and we're happy to be the first store they play at. If you wanna see them live beforehand, their CD release party is at The EARL this Saturday, August 28th. We've got their self-titled debut album on a listening station here at the store, so stop by and check it out or try out a few songs on the band's MySpace page.

On September 22nd, we'll have legendary alt-country songwriter Dale Watson, a man the All Music Guide describes thusly: "A staunch adherent of old-style honky tonk and Bakersfield country, Dale Watson has positioned himself as a tattooed, stubbornly independent outsider only interested in recording authentic country music. As a result, he has never sold many records, but his music has been championed by numerous critics and alternative country fans." Count us as the latter!

We'll announce times, other goodies, etc. about these in-store performances as they get closer. For now, though, save the date!
