Episode 381: Pride of Deer Month

SlapperCast Episode 381: "Pride of Deer Month" In this episode, Paddy and Chad recap a busy week of Blaggards shows, including T-Bone Tom’s in Kemah, HSF Biergarten in Brenham, and the latest “Blagfeather” show at The Big Top. We talk about the joyful weirdness of playing with different drummers while Turbo prepares for knee replacement surgery, including the return of longtime Blaggard drummer Mike McAloon, Keith York’s thunderous and emotional return to the Brenham stage, Justice Swantner of Lonefeather, and our upcoming shows with another former Blaggard, James “Jimbo” Edwards. There’s also some big-picture talk about the future of live music, finding new places and new ways to play, the return of our Pirate Festival at HSF, upcoming Ireland dates, and a newly-announced Blaggards/Lonefeather show at Rehab Bar on the Bayou on July 18. Also: Chad’s birthday, Patrick’s childhood European vacations, deer whistles, Thin Lizzy, Steve Earle, the sacred weirdness of Wednesday night gigs, and our heartfelt plea to PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN and actually experience the show while it’s happening. Come see a show! We promise not to stare at our phones... if you don’t. ;) At the end of the episode, enjoy the FULL performance of Paddy singing Thin Lizzy's "Killer on the Loose" with Lonefeather last Wednesday at the Big Top!
