Those are probably my two favorites, to be honest.  When I was first getting into DBT someone made me a mix and it was all these Isbell songs...and I was like "oh sweet, this is gonna be awesome" and then he left the band   :D  Doh!

dave i'll never forget the sincerity in your voice when you said coming to NYC for the T5 chaos was one of the greatest decisions you've ever made.

it meant alot to me because i came all the way to NYC from Tokyo, Japan and I echoed your sentiment 100%

Still stand by that statement. Dont think a day has gone by since I got home that I havent had at least one thought about that 10 days in October last year.

Traveling for music? The best fucken thing ever...!

@ralph - if you want some specific track suggestions, check out what the DBT faithful say: http://gorankem.com/artists/21614-Drive-By-Truckers love the fact that 'zip city' is on top...definitely not their most popular, but one of the live favorites

Well, it's finally happened. Southern Rock Opera kicked in and I'm obsessed. It only took a few years to get it. I tried and tried to like the band, I really did, and it never happened until now.

Dirty South and Decoration Day are both fantastic, no doubt...but a little Isbell-heavy, which makes them kind of misleading as an entry point IMO.

ralph, no matter where you start, you'll be able to tell right away if you'll dig them or not  ;D  As fredo noted above, Patterson's voice is a bit of an...acquired taste.

that's why i love those two, they're Isbell heavy :-(
also they have 3 singers at any given time, give it a chance, ralph..
i can't wait for Jason's new album

In the end I bought The Dirty South and ordered Southern Rock Opera. 

Um, so when the second guitar kicked in on the right speaker during the final solo on the first song on The Dirty South I knew this was a keeper. So that took 5 minutes...

And in what may be a sign, I got the booklet for Decoration Day instead of TDS booklet so I probably should just buy that as well.

That's Mike Cooley, the Stroker Ace  ;) 

Yay, glad you like, Dave!

Sorry to be that braggart--if any of you are ever thinking of going to this, it's like the Terminal 5 week for DBT. It was the most fun I've had since T5 or hometown show weekend. The band were hanging out all over town, Athens is one of the coolest places ever. 3 great nights-epic rock shows...I'm still coming down. I really love the south. Free refills for everything, tator tots, fried chicken, 2.50 yuenglings....

 :D   Awesome photo Penny!!   Read the blogs on the dbt forum and it does seem to be a T5 for dbt fans.  might have to  make the road trip next year.

so did you marry that bartender, just get engaged or just the normal friendly PL "i like all humanity that like the music i love"

Any chance you can talk to MC and PH and get them to do a bunch of T5 shows in the near future?  I hated to miss nye at t5.
was some shakin' and some record playin'

Penny Lane

ha ha..no luck with the bartender---
i was too busy taking pics of his shirt and texting them to Ruckus
this is such a cool thing to do if you're a truckers fan, the band is so accessible, it's surreal, all over town you keep running into other trucker fans
they played the new album on Night 1 then launched into an incredible encore (set 2)
the other 2 nights are fuzzy...ha ha...
i'm burned out on them, though---don't know when/if i'll see them again on this tour unless they add a Tipitinas 2 night show..i've always wanted to see MMJ or DBT play there. Have fun in Peekskill!
