22. Ain't Gonna Fight It
23. All The Very Best Things
Now, I'll move on to our experiences (I'm sure MF's experience was a little different than mine, and he'll probly fill in my gaps
).
We got there and the guys were doing the sound check. Derri walked back and forth a few times past our table, that was basically front and center (just back from the 2 front tables off to either side).
Being a fan of Derri, I have to fill this in: my seat was strategic so I could watch him play his geetars without anyone in front of me (being short, I wouldn't have been able to see if we had been placed at any other table than one of the 3 front tables)
They played wonderfully tonight, typical Lost Dogs style. They had a total of 7 guitars between the 3 of them on top of all of Steve's percussion equipment. The whole concert was kind of an intimate living room feel (probably cuz we were so close). Mike was wound up as usual, with Terry a close second. Derri shook his head at them often throughout the evening and sounded just as sweet as ever. Steve's percussion was very creative(ie at one point he held a tambourine between his knees and hit it occasionally in the midst of hitting other drums) and gave a nice touch to the Dogs live show.
At one point, Terry asked how everyone was tonight. There was a lot of mumbled answers and then he said, "Are you bored?" My response was, "No way", but it wasn't very loud. Our son heard me and said it very loudly just as the entire room got quiet. Terry's response was, "Out of the mouths of babes".
Another moment with our son was when he wanted to do something, but we didn't understand exactly what he wanted. He started to get upset and cry. By the end of the song he was really crying, and Terry said, "I think I upset someone". I wanted to crawl under the table.
After the encore, they came back out to play 3 more songs, finishing off the night with All The Very Best Things, which MF and I really enjoy!
There was a woman from Cincinnati travelling with the band to do publicity on this tour. She was standing at the CD table. Toward the end of the concert, our daughter decided to stand with her to "help them sell CDs". Our daughter is our little entrepreneur. She will try to sell anything to anyone ~ kinda like dorf!
And the blond hair and blue eyes certainly doesn't hurt anything!
At the end of the concert, we got to talk to the guys a little bit, got our pictures with them (have to wait until the film is developed
), and got our newest Dogs CD, Mutt, autographed. Derri and Mike signed the CD. Terry signed the inside of the liner notes, "To Bereal & Mountain fan of DAmb - Go to Church!! Terry S. Taylor"
After that, our son wanted to "go talk to the band". I asked him if he wanted to talk to Mike, cuz he really likes Mike. He stalled and then said, "Derri, I shake his hand". So we walked up and he shook Derri's hand and started talking a mile a minute. At one point he told Derri, "I have super curls". We had a great laugh over that one. Later by the CD table our daughter grabbed hold of my shirt and hid her face and said, "I don't want to talk to Derri." This was on the heels of staring at him when he walked up to the counter of the cafe to get a cup of water before going on. She was just being shy.
That's about it for my experience. I didn't actually talk to Mike, but MF did talk to him when he signed our CD. You'll have to get that scoop from MF!

My supervisor had a sort of backyard BBQ event for the small group I work in this year. Our daughter roasted at least a dozen marshmallows and put them on separate napkins and was going to sell them for $1 each.
We also played & sang a few songs.

Mike had a cool electric that I hadn't exactly seen before. From a distance, I assumed it was a Telecaster because of the hardware on the body and overall shape. Then, I noticed it had one "F" soundhole on the left side. It didn't look thick enough to be a semi-solid body and I though it kinda strange if it was just a decoration or something. It was hard to tell in the lighting, but afterwards I was looking at it and yep it was a semi-solid body (hollow). It was only a bit thicker than a standard guitar (maybe 1/2 to 3/4"?). I don't remember looking at the headstock to see it's shape or what it said. He also had his Taylor.
Derri had the light blue Strat guitar that Mike had borrowed on the 77s tour, as well as his Gibson acoustic and another one I didn't recognize the brand of. He also had a greenish electric, the body of which was symmetrically cut thru on both sides of the upper frets to the bottom of the neck, so that each side of the body had sort of a "longhorn" look or something.
Terry had his big Guild, of course.
I think they had the most back-and-forth banter of any of the other 3 concerts of theirs I have been to in the last few years.
At one point, Terry lapsed into a crazy Dr. EDT impersonation back and forth with Mike and it finally ended when he asked something like if Mike wanted to see his magic pocket. They just cracked up at that point and moved on.
I hate to guess how many were there but I would say probably 80-120. It looked like a decent crowd in the somewhat small storefront building. It was a bit bigger than the Evening Muse in Charlotte.
I missed being front-and-center for at least half the show because I was in the cafe side of the building (it had speakers and large opening connecting the two sides) with the kids, who were having fun playing with chess and backgammon pieces and running wild in addition to somtimes dancing. I met a neat young lady named Sara (after she and the kids started playing together) that attended Lee University there in Knoxville. She mentioned she had recently been on a tour as part of a drama team from Lee that went as far north as PA and south into GA and AL. She said it was neat to see the different churches. She said one was a little unnerving because they taped the show and got fairly close to the performers with multiple cameras and such. She said they performed at a small Church of God in our town. She also said that they went to one that was quite weird because the Pastor and his family were the only ones left. It seems a number of other families had just left in the prior Sunday or two. It made me think of DA's "The Lucky Ones" off of MBD. I shared how there is almost a church on every corner in our town (one of the greatest concentrations per capita, square mile, or something, can't remember) but many are small and many of the people there would be unlikely to welcome in people that really need to be there. She had a couple of piercings over one eye and her dress was alternative for sure (but fairly tasteful and un-revealing) and it was neat talking to her. She had been homeschooled some in the upper grades. She left when her boyfriend and his friend were done playing chess.

Hey y'all! Gotta add my "AMEN" to all the great sharing of info about the concert. It was almost like being there. Well, maybe not that "almost"..... Anyway, it was indeed great. And MF, I agree w/ Mr. Jiminy; I appreciate the gear info - I'm into that. I have to take a stab at the ones you were unsure about - (it's kinda like naming that tune or something). Mike's tele sounds right. I have seen some semi-hollow Tele-shaped guitars out there and think Fender even had one at one time but there are other cos. that make 'em. Could be G&H?? As for Derri's other acoustic; when I saw them play in Houston awhile back he was playing an Ovation or something similar with that "bowl" shaped back and the sound holes in the upper bout - could that be it? And for my final answer - just a shot in the dark on the electric - sounds like a Parker Fly, which is one cool guitar. Are you familiar with those?
Thanks again for taking the time to put down your impressions, and all you other "lucky ones" out there: don't forget to do your part!

Mike's electric Tele? looked like it had been around quite awhile, so I think it was an actual Fender rather than a copy (and also because he endorses Fender electrics now). I had never heard of a semi-solid Tele. I think it is a really cool guitar.
Derri's 2nd acoustic was not an Ovation (I know because I have a Celebrity and want a 1861 Balladeer with cherryburst top). It was a fairly traditional-looking guitar with a medium brown stain finish (didn't look mahogany, though) and normal soundhole. Also, the front and back curves made it look "fat", kinda like a smaller version of Terry's Guild, as opposed to his Gibson that didn't have as fat curves.
I do think I remember him playing a cherryburst Balladeer (or other model with normal center soundhole) at an Arizona show BigDork had pictures/video of posted on his site at one time.
Derri's non-strat electric wasn't a Parker fly (looked a pic up on the web). The "horns" were fairly parallel to the neck, a bit thinner, and the body was symmetrical, with the cutouts going down to the bottom of the neck on both sides. If I remember right, I think the headstock may have had 3 tuners on each side and a little shorter than most.

Actually I want the cherryburst Balladeer
and may end up playing it more if WE get it because the neck isn't quite as broad as MF's Ovation (it's made more for feminine hands!)
And MF, thanks for posting all the gear info!
You did way better than I could have!

...
PLUS - that is a Doggie Crowd !- smaller venues that fill up are what the Boys like I think. |
Yeah, MF is the Saintiest! He told me last week he was gonna punch Derri in the nose and tell him he "stole my wife". I told MF that he's the one who makes my knees week! I just like Derri's music (and his hair! I'm jealous!)
MF behaved himself last night. And I did go out with our son for a while, but not as long as MF did!
. I was a little bummed that I had payed to see the Dogs and had to go out with my son cuz I thought I wouldn't be able to see them. Well, I was able to see Derri and Terry just fine (had to go a little closer to the door to see Mike), so it was well worth runnin after our boy! I was especially able to see Derri - it was kinda like he was framed in the doorway.
As fer bein a music lover: I am! And I don't just let MF do "his thing" cuz "his thing" is "my thing" and he has to share if I'm to let him do "his thing"!
Whoa, my heads spinnnin after that!
And that Doggie Crowd is why I love the Dogs! Smaller venues feel more intimate and I like that! (And that's why the show last night kinda had a "living room intimacy" kinda feeling!
)

"Wow, didn't know you were there! Which table were you sitting at? Were you at the front table on the right?"
Yes, I was at the front table at the right! Wow, what a great seat! I've never read this board until today, so its really amazing to me that for some reason this morning I go to DanielAmos.com and click on the Forum and there is the set list and people talking about the show! Thanks! (I was going to try to remember the set list to send to a couple of friends who couldn't come, but I'm sure I couldn't have remembered it all)
I live in Knoxville and have wanted the Dogs to come to New City Cafe www.newcitycafe.com/ for years so I was very excited that it finally happened. Its a great venue to watch music. When its packed full it probably only holds 200 people or so.
I was at the 77s show in Alcoa a couple months back. Other than that, the only time I've seen any of these guys was when the Lost Dogs played in Chattanooga back in about 1997.
My friend Allyn (the eye doctor) only got to come because my wife had gotten sick yesterday and told me to find someone else to go. He was excited, but warned me that he was on call. The other guy sitting with us was a fellow that Allyn and I had gone with to see Chagall Guevara several years ago in Knoxville, so that was a nice little unintended reunion.

I remember seeing all of you at your table and thinkin, "Who are those guys? They look like true Dogs fans!"
Are you the guy with the beard? (Maybe I won't have anymore questions after this one!)
That set list was certainly nothing I could remember all of. We wrote it all down so we could share it here to whet the appetites of those that will be goin' to a show during this tour.
Also, it's interesting that you were at the 77's show in Alcoa. My husband, who is Mountain Fan on this board, went to that show too. I stayed home that night so that he could take a friend from church who had recently lost his job. I hear that was a great show too!
BTW, we live in Asheville, North Carolina, so we had to drive 2 hours to get to the show, but it was well worth every drop of gas burned!!!!! We'll have to all plan to get together if the Dogs ever come back to New City Cafe (or anywhere else in Knoxville or close by)!
