Butch Walker - Stay Gold (August 26, 2016) Album • Page 11

Oh man, you'd never seen him before? Yep, next to Springsteen, I've never seen anyone do a better live show than him. Not really anyone even close, really. He's just brings everything he's got for every show.

I'd give the edge to the back half, which is insane considering that opening trio.

And he's not playing two of them on tour! At least not yet.

He just took it to another level with the choruses on this record. "Can We Just Not Talk About Last Night" and "Spark: Lost" are just immediate sing-alongs. And then "Record Store" just crushes you.

 

Mannn, having a bunch of problems with Pandora. Might be forced to wait.

 

Tour setlist is great, but I do wish he were doing at least one more from Letters. I don't need an old-school "Lights Out" freak-out like the old days – "Uncomfortably Numb" would fit in just fine with the vibe he's going for on this tour.

But damn, the 2004/2005 shows where he would rip a solo in "Lights Out" and then rip the strings off his guitar during "Best Thing" were just next level.

 

What's it doing?

 

Keeps playing Eric Hutchinson's "Easy Street" on mobile. Tried it on the computer on my lunch break and it played the first 3 songs and timed out and started over.

 

Finally got it to work on mobile! @Craig Manning

 

It kept doing that to me last night too. Very dumb.

 

Looks like tomorrow nights concert is going to be live streamed!

 

After first listen I still like The Spade better, haha. I need to listen again though when I'm not working at the same time. It deserves my undivided attention.

 

I love The Spade but this packs way more of an emotional punch and is just as fun

 

And I'll be there rocking out!

 

Yep and yep. Not even close, for me.

 

I watched the LiveNation stream last night. It was fantastic and Butch has never sounded better. It amazes me every time how great he sounds live. The man is so criminally underrated.

 

Damn, forgot to watch that. I wonder if that's still up somewhere.

 

That's what I was about to ask, I was out of town. If anyone grabbed the stream, I would be much appreciative.

 

If I knew how to do that stuff I would have. He played hot girls in good moods before the encore (Record Store) and it was awesome.

 

Man....... I tried, I really did. I just don't like his voice and his songwriting does absolutely nothing for me.

 

YOU DON'T LIKE HIS VOICE?!

 

No, I don't really. Haha.

 

Especially the occasional twang which seems super forced

 

You can take the man out of Georgia, but you can't take Georgia out of the man.

 

WTF does "forced twang" mean?

 

I mean, I know what he means, but that's obviously not the case with Butch cause he grew up in GA.

 

Would have been better to just leave it at tried to listen but couldn't get into it.

 

That's just how it comes off to me, that's why I put it the way I did.

Don't tell me what to post.
