Live Through This: rock nyc’s Top Concert Picks Week Of November 11th, 2019
My problem with the Lynyrd Skynyrd- Hank Williams Jr gig this summer (here) was as much to do with the timing as it did with the performance, I just wasn’t in the mood for kis my country ass stuff. I am a little calmer now, and a long time Charlie Daniels fan (a real bucket list performer) and, with the Junior Varsity Allman-Betts Band opening, I can see no excuse not to check out the old reprobate at least once… though he won’t get me to singalong to “How We Roll”. Wednesday at Beacon Theatre.
