Day 15:
Flight To Mars May 2012, The Casbah – Play something with a guest star.
You fine folks of this community showered my wife and I with a ridiculous amount of love for our 40th wedding anniversary last April.
One of the gifts was VIP tix to Drive-By Truckers celebrating their
Southern Rock Opera record performing it in full with some bonus tracks sprinkled in along the way.

The encore was a blazing left jab / right cross of Neil Young's 'Rockin' In The Free World' and Jim Carroll's 'People Who Died'. The band brought out Asheville's own MJ Lenderman on guitar and vocals for both songs.
Patterson went totally nuts during 'People Who Died'. He ditched his guitar (between Cooley, MJ and two roadies who joined in, there were still 4 left) and was all over the place - jumping, windmilling, writhing on the stage - a glorious spectacle.
I wish every one of you could have been there.
Actually, y'all still can..
