Teevee Planning
Posted by TFG on 31st October 2007
Thanks to the incessant promotion on the NASCAR roundy-rounds, I’m aware that there’s some kind of awards show on next week that is focused on country music. I’m looking forward to seeing Ryan Bingham accept the award for Mescalito as Album of the Year, and perform his monster hit Bread and Water. I’m sure I’ll Tivo it, so I can see it again.
BWAHAHAHAHA! I crack myself up sometimes. Seriously, Mescalito is an excellent album. Highly crafted but not in a preciously poofy way, instrumentally rich, well written songs, and Bingham’s got that whiskey-and-Marlboro voice that does Texas Music proud. You can check out South Side of Heaven on his MySpace dealio.
Click to buy — I love me some Amazon MP3, boys.
And as far as I’m concerned, Mescalito is Album of the Year. I’ve enjoyed absolutely nothing as much as this in a long time. Sadly for me, it looks like he’s touring everywhere except Texas for the next month. Good on him for spreading the word…I hope it’s appreciated out there…yall get out there and support a good man and a good band. I’d love to get a report on a live show.
