This show is the first of three concerts with this line-up that I was lucky enough to record. It is also the final one to be released, as I have uploaded the other two previously. One of them is still active as of today's date.
If I'm not mistaken, this was the longest of the three shows, clocking in at over 2 hours in length. There is a very special "vibe" in the room on this night, for multiple reasons. One has to do with the bands relationship with the owner of the club, John("John Boy"). Another reason is the return to the road of Molly Hatchet, with it's beloved front man, and one of the arguably most talented line-ups ever(although unoriginal). Yet another reason that there is such a killer vibe on this night has to do with a special guest who is present on this evening. I won't reveal who that is, in order to preserve the listening experience for those who download this show. But believe me, he gets a special introduction.
I was preparing this show to be uploaded earlier in the week and it dawned on me that this show has special meaning, for myself and for others, on this particular day(Sunday June 17, 2012). Today is Father's Day, and this show was recorded on my Dad's Birthday, eight years after his passing. But there is a much more poignant moment, relative to Father's Day, that occurs during this show. It's very moving - and it leaves me with goosebumps listening to it now. I really believe that, if those who download this listen to it today, there will be a lot of grown men reaching for the tissue box before they are through. It has to do with something that DJB says, and one can hear the love and affection in his voice. Again, I won't spoil the moment by commenting further.
This recording was made with a better mic than the other two, and is overall a bit better quality, IMHO. But The first two songs are a bit rough, due to a packed house full of die-hard Hatchet fanatics. Check the samples for more information. Also, I had to pee during Bobby's guitar solo. I had no expectations of a two hour show that night! After "Dreams", I thought the end was near, but they just kept going and going. I finally had to walk out the front door, took about five steps, and relieved myself in the grass in the side lot. All caught on the tape. I did, however, fade in and out before and after the "pee" while editing, and created a separate track for that episode. Therefore, one can leave the "pee track" in, if they so desire, or one can remove it, and the guitar solo will fade out and then back in during the playback.
So there it is, my final offering of Molly Hatchet with Danny Joe Brown. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I do!
