Wounded Bird - The Black Crowes

04.25.08 - Late Night with David Letterman

I can not put into words how excited I am to hit the Forecastle Fest is Louisville Friday. Obviously, it’s been a little while since I’ve seen panic, so that’ll be the main course Saturday and Sunday cause I got the jones, but there are so many other great acts that weekend.

The Crowes coming on directly before Panic, what? The chances are immenent for a Robinson sit-in, if Chris isn’t being a little bitch. (Feelin’ Alright, perhaps?). Either way, sit-in, or not, I will be sniffing the Nag and riding the rail with my boys Randy, Wrangler, and Two Hole.

I feel really good about this little festival. Magic’s in the air.

p.s. What about a Dweezil sit-in on Joe’s Garage with panic. Is that even possible?

p.s.s. And of course, Sam Holt with Outformation will be sticking around for the day after his set. Uh-Oh!?!

Looks Like Rain -> Jam - Grateful Dead
3.28.85 - Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, NY

1985 is one of my favorite Dead years, and with good cause.  It is one of the last years to find all members still reasonably on top of their skills, creating truly innovative and interesting improv, and the sets featured a wide variety of material.  This 16 minute Looks Like Rain features a really great jam.

Enjoy this as well as some great picks from April and June of 1985.  We’ll revisit this year later in the summer with some more choice picks.

Reba - Phish
8.2.03 - IT Festival, Loring Air Force Base, Limestone, Maine

One of the best Rebas Phish has played, and certainly the best version post-hiatus. The jam really takes off at about 12:30.  Trey lays down some very tasteful licks and Fish is all sorts of locked in with Gordo.  It might be Page’s subtle textures that just highlight Trey, but this jam always does it for me!

What Is The Butter Room?

The Butter Room was built to spread and discuss live music. The contributors of this site all volunteer their time to provide the content. We do this as a labor of love. Our name, The Butter Room, references an small, low-lit room in a Virginia Tech Fraternity with nothing but a few benches and tables. You go there to get away from all distractions and have a conversation, which is what we want to foster here: a place where you can get away from all the distractions of life to enjoy and discuss live music.
