I’m psyched that I’m finally getting my first Widespread Panic show this summer when the band rolls through the High Sierra Music Festival, and the band is staying plenty busy ahead of that with the May 25th release of Dirty Side Down, the band’s 11th studio album.

The band played last night and our buddy Patrick was in attendance. He snapped this photo quickly and sent it my way, and based on the text messages I’ve received it’s fair to say that everyone in our crew down there is having a blast. I’ve got
