To Do in Tampa/St. Pete: Woodsboss and Those Legendary Shackshakers

Posted by autopsy4 on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 8:07 PM

Man, it's been a while since we had a "To Do" and, I ain't gonna lie, the break has been nice. Having done one to two shows a week for a month-plus, I was ready for some time off. Now, having had said time off, I need to go to a fucking show. Luckily for me and the rest of you Tampa/'Burg-ians, we got a weekend loaded with the awesome. So let's go through it:

Thursday @ New World: The Woodsboss

There is no shortage of people who've danced a shit-ton of nights away at New World to the live blessings of The Weary Boys. Those were the kinds of nights that stories are made of. A band without a label relentlessly touring enough to build huge followings, in enough towns they could play packed houses in every state of the union. Then reality came crawling and The Weary Boys disbanded.

Wha? Why? What's gonna? WTFingF?

Shock, rage, sadness.

Enter The Woodsboss. Which, FYI, is basically The Weary Boys minus Darren and plus Brian's wife.

So, all you Weary Boy fans needs to get your asses up off the couch and get out to New World Thursday night and we'll dance again to the fine fine sounds of Mario, The Woodsboss and a few Weary Boys faves.

Mario Matteoli - Hard Luck Hittin'

Mario Matteoli - Sun Keeps On Beating Down

The Weary Boys - Another Song, Another Drink

The Weary Boys - Cruel Corrina

The Weary Boys - Freight Train Blues

Friday @ The Garage: Tailgunner Joe, Nervous Turkey and Those Legendary Shackshakers

Tampa/St. Pete is in an interesting era because we have an utterly ridiculous level of awesomeness in our local scene, and two of the upper crest of that scene are coming together to open for the stupidly awesome Legendary Shackshakers.

Really, Tampa. I know you're lazy. Fuck, I get it. We live in Florida. People who don't live here don't get it, but I know that the notion of a "local" band in this state is like screaming "Oral herpes at the kissing booth! $3!" So let me tell you something right now: Tailgunner Joe and Nervous Turkey are each worthy of a night out on their own. Put them together and it almost becomes necessary for you fuckers (that was a 'you fuckers' that includes me) to come out. It's a NEED. Now, WTF? You include them both with Those Legendary Shackshakers and I cannot think of any reason why you can't spend $12 to see guaranteed awesome from beginning to end.

Tailgunner Joe & The Earls of Slander - The Street

Tailgunner Joe & The Earls of Slander - This is Your Brain

Nervous Turkey - Strang

Nervous Turkey - Too Late For Romance

For those that don't know, let's talk Legendary Shackshakers live for a moment.

It's Those Leg-en-dary muthafucking Shack Shakers. Does anything more really need to be said? Those who know, know. Those who don’t ... well, what the fuck is wrong with you? Get your ass to The Garage and see what Jello Biafra called rock and roll’s best frontman, Col. J.D. Wilkes. Snot rockets will be launched, pubes will be thrown, beers will be drank and howdies will get doodied. You may hate the music but you’ll love the show, I guarantee it. It’s Iggy Pop fronting Southern Culture on the Skids. The southern gothic, rock and roll version of the Sex Pistols, but more entertaining and with more talent.

Those Legendary Shackshakers - Blood On The Bluegrass

Those Legendary Shackshakers - Piss and Vinegar

Those Legendary Shackshakers - Old Spur Line

So, I hope to bounce into a few of ya'll this weekend. Say hey to me 'cause, despite all your efforts to make it not so, I still love you, Tampa, and you can insure that continues by buying me a drink and complementing me on my new hat.
