god damn it was cold here in atlanta this morning. suprisingly though, i actually kind of enjoyed it. it reminded me of bitter cold chicago mornings of yore without actually having to be in chicago. the one great thing about down here is that it may start off at 20/30 degrees in the morning but will get to like 65 in the afternoon. a sure fire way of getting sick, but i will take that risk. if i never see snow again or wait for a bus when its -5, my heart will not be broken.
last year the hold steady’s seperation sunday was almost a shoe-in for my favorite of the year. that was until lucero’s nobody’s darlings came in outta nowhere to claim the top spot. looking back i think i made the right decision. aimee mann’s very underappreciated, the forgotten arm, was a very, very close third.
anyway, as good as boys and girls in america is it will not crack my top 3 for the 06. there were a few suprise albums that pushed it down to 4 or 5 - both very respectable spots mind you. look for a complete rundown and shit early next week. in the meantime here are brooklyn’s finest performing at the beta bar in tallahassee on 12.1.06. thanks to the original taper, alex, for a wonderful job.

Velocity’s online photo gallery of the show – love the one of our own J-Whit (photo #11). And go to the end ’til you see us all on stage. Total magic. Edited to Add: Live tracks from the Tallahassee show. Ybor City, what! We drink and we dry up and now we crumble into dust.

Thanks for putting this up! I was at the Maxwell’s show, the day after Thanksgiving and got some great photos, thought you would like to check ‘em out.
Thanks again for the post.
You should encourage your taper friend to put this in a torrent at etree.org. Would help share the music.

Seriously, I can’t thank you enough for posting this. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. I love this band and it was my first time seeing them.
