Listening to Drive By Truckers . . .

These guys are good.

Don’t call what your wearing an outfit. Don’t ever say your car is broke.
Don’t sing with a fake British accent. Don’t act like your family’s a joke.
Have fun, but stay clear of the needle, call home on your sister’s birthday.
Don’t tell them you’re bigger than Jesus, Don’t give it away.

How many guys sang lead? On the album, it sounds like they have three different guys singing songs too.

I, too was at the Note for the DBT show. (I think it was last spring.) It was rockin', but at the risk of sounding old, it was way too loud. It was distorted it was so loud. Couldn't really hear the vocals at all. I went with a buddy who knew all the words and he even said he couldn't understand a single lyric. I have seen Ice-T's Body Count, Metallica, G-N-R, etc and that Drive by Truckers show was the LOUDEST concert I have ever been to in my life. The may have only had three guitars, but it sounded like 300.

Overall, I liked their sound, I just would have liked less of it. God, how old am I?!
