Post image for Setlist: Trey Anastasio Band @ Tabernacle, Atlanta, GA

Band finished up their tour last night with the triumphant return of “Windora Bug” in the second set, which is one of my favorites. I can’t wait to pick up the recording. And our buddy Patrick was there, so hopefully we can pimp him for some photos in the very near future.

I just came across this video series from Alabama Public Television, called We Have Signal. They’ve got some pretty rad live footage from a bunch of shows at the BottleTree Café in Birmingham, AL, including this set by Blitzen Trapper which I’m currently digging:

Brothers Past 2/25/10 @ Brooklyn Bowl

Brothers Past stopped through last night in near-blizzard conditions for a solid show featuring some of their newer material and a lot of dancey electronic improv. I actually got a chance to chat with guitarist Tom Hamilton and bassist Clay Parnell before the show, so I’ll have more on that soon. For now, here’s a quick wrap-up of the show with setlist, photos and a video clip of their newer tune “Who’s Gonna Love me Now.”

Brothers Past – The Ceiling Part 2 – Bowery Ballroom – 9-26-09 [YouTube]

Despite the snowy evening forecast here in NYC, I am hoping to head on over to Williamsburg to catch Brothers Past at Brooklyn Bowl. I was pretty impressed with BP’s last NYC show at the Bowery. As you can see from this video above, it was quite the rager, so I’m hoping for good things this evening.

As a bit of a fan-friendly gesture to fans that have made — or are willing to make — the long trip through the snow for the tonight’s show, the band just sent out this update:

Tonight’s show at BK BOWL is FREE if you can prove you traveled there from the Philly area or beyond. Show your train ticket, bus ticket, turnpike receipt and you will be granted free admittance to the show.

Good stuff. Let’s hope BP once again brings the heat to the Big Apple. After all, now they’ve got Williamsburg hipsters to impress.
