[from Austin TX] we were immediately biased by one of the
band member’s girl friends who informed us the musicians were accompanying the
singer in hopes of saving a sorry performance – according to her, the musicians
play with several local bands and are well respected (which seemed reasonable
given the performance), while the singer gets around but not with a lot of
respect, kind of like some girls we know – unfortunately, this reminded me that
his myspace page quoted a review that said “these guys aren’t bad” and then
tried to say that the reviewer is hard to please… best not list that review - he
wasn’t awful by any means but he didn’t really redeem his reputation by only
playing covers, and pretty obvious covers at that (Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash,
etc.) – if he were your friend and you didn’t live in Austin, you’d think he
was great (Photo courtesy of https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/food/2013-10-25/the-mean-eyed-cat-lives-on/)
