Anyone on here a fan? If you are not, you need to become one. I saw him this week. Played full-throttle for three hours, no crowd work, no opening act, no banner. Almost Stoner rock, with a Grateful Dead jam tendency, super-tight.
Check out this setlist.

CSB Tim. My neighbor was the drummer in Sturgill’s band before Sturgill signed with a big label. The label told him “we only want you, not the band”.
My neighbor was and still is a little bitter.
Well, sorry to hear that, but his current band is tits. Sturgill is in the NFL.
Is Albert Hall where John Lennon asked the rich people to rattle their jewelry?
Negative. Prince of Wales Theatre.

GREETINGS FROM PRINCE OF WALES THEATRE…. COOL FUCKING THEATRE!!!!!
Waylon is my hero so I need to buy some Sturgill albums. Just have been lazy…
He’s playing a festival in central OR this summer. On the fence cause it might be a bit too busy for my taste. I’m an extrovert who hates large crowds of ding dongs.
Huge Sturgill fan have never seen him live though. Sailor's Guide to Earth is exactly my kind of weird country epic album and he sounds like a super interesting and unique character on podcasts. He also produced Tyler Childers' first album, which is one of my favorite albums of any genre of recent decades.
@WoolleyDoog @YellowSnow don't do the festival. He's playing in Spokane, no opener, 3 hours. It'll be worth it.
I hate festivals and don't really like concerts anyway.
That's a 6 hr drive, guv-nuh.
I pulled up the set list and the covers he is doing are awesome.
Watching him do LA Woman makes me think of what a missed opportunity this was for Waylon Jennings to honky tonkify that song.
I said that about Social Distortion once. Now I just live with regret.
Nobody cares about the pain in the ass whatever bullshit that came with the journey, that will fade within weeks.
But the pilgrimage to see a true artist at the height of his powers will be with you until you're dead - mate!
Who?
Christ
I had to Google.
Cuntry.
'Nuff said about that.
Guv-nuh.
People forget cuntry music invented rock and roll.
But that happened before 1978 so it was probably all shit music.
Driving 6 hrs to concerts with 30 days notice give or take is some single dudes with no kids (or empty nester) stuff!!
I'll be kewl AF by the time I'm in my late 50s!!
You said it, not me.
