Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Just picked my wife and daughter up from the airport after a month long trip to NYC… I am physically sick about not not being there!!! We’re going to LC show but, hands down, I would have rather been there tonight!!! This has been a 3 month struggle but… priorities. For me, this is a MUCH bigger deal than Buffett or Thorogood playing in Varsity while I was there. I’ve been a DriveBy Truckers and solo Isbell fan for a long time!

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
It did not disappoint. Lightning delay but the show started around nine and he crushed like he usually does. Very complimentary of app state and the area. Good crowd. It was cool being on the field watching the show in perfect weather.booneboy92 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 7:45 pmJust picked my wife and daughter up from the airport after a month long trip to NYC… I am physically sick about not not being there!!!

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
They should have more concerts during summer like this. Like an outdoor amphitheater in Raleigh or Charlotte but you have the mountains in background. Nice to see alternatives such as alternative, country, rock, blue grass, etc. Set the set up so inclement weather would not impact the band. Another revenue generator for university. Could run these through September when full student population back in town.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Enjoyed a concert in Red Rocks Amphitheater this summer. Boone/The High Country needs to build the East Coast Version. It is an incredible experience and there has to be a setting worthy of a 8K to 10K seat venue.Tbatchelor1977 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 6:21 amThey should have more concerts during summer like this.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
App needs to do a better job of marketing these events...I'm not sure I heard about it until the day before. Regardless, we have a great venue and should look into a summer concert series at The Rock. What other famous acts have performed at App in the past?

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
I couldn’t agree more. Mrs Seattleapp got us tickets and I was shocked there wasn’t more buzz he was playing. Isbell is as respected a “non modern country” artist as there is out there today. The guy has won multiple grammy’s despite not being a commercially manufactured artist. (Luke Bryan) He sold out the famous ryman theater in Nashville 6 nights in a row pre pandemic. There was a nice crowd there for July despite no students, but I was surprised it wasn’t promoted more. I know combs and church are native sons but there is no comparison between isbell’s ability compared to theirs. He’s on a different level talent wise.

Saw him in Schaefer a few years ago as a student. Crazy how big he’s getting and now he’s playing Kidd Brewer.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Tons. The APPS program has brought some great people to Boone over the years. I personally have seen at KBS (since early-mid 2000's), Diamond Rio, LeeAnn Womack, Dierks Bentley, The Band Perry, Kacey Musgraves, The Temptations and 4 tops (what was left of them). I saw Willie Nelson, Doobie Bros/Chicago at the convocation center, Lonestar, Old Crow at Farthing. Little Big Town played a few years ago, and I think late 90's or early 2000 Kenny Rogers did too.
I didn't see them, but John Mayer when he was popular, Lil Wayne, Dave Matthews Band have all played at Holmes. To be a small town, App brings in some really big acts

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Y’all are forgetting Wyclef Jean when he came to Boone and played. Was 45 minutes late, sang his hit song “gone til November” (changing the lyric to “high til November”) then walked off the stage. Boy that went over well.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Now if you really want to do the time machine, Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel played at Varsity Gym in the mid/late 70s. Joel made fun of the gym and asked if it was the Boone Bus Terminal. It was a small but very enthusiastic crowd for Springsteen. Both put on a great show.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Joel was probably asking because he was looking for a place to drunk crash his car laterBayouApp wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 9:36 amNow if you really want to do the time machine, Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel played at Varsity Gym in the mid/late 70s.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
My last semester a buddy of mine asked me to go see some band at Legend’s called Hootie and The Blowfish. I just made fun of the name and, not so kindly, turned him down… Within about 6 months, “Hold My Hand” was a #1 single and “Cracked Rear View” was at the top of the album charts! Those guys went from Boone straight to the Moon! Talk about hindsight and regrets?!

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
I remember reading an article (possibly in the Appalachian) while in school about the time Phish came to varsity gym in the 90s. Absolutely hilarious read about the atmosphere leading up to and during the show. I’m sure its out there somewhere.
DMB and Widespread Panic also came thru in the 90s/early 2000s. Panic was multiple times (lead guitarist was originally from Boone).

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
Man, seeing Panic/Phish or really any jam band in Boone would be wild. Anyone else going to see WSP in Wilmington this weekend?JPatH3292 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 11:35 amI remember reading an article (possibly in the Appalachian) while in school about the time Phish came to varsity gym in the 90s.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
I had a badminton class the morning after a Panic show. They were still airing the place out when I got there for my 10 a.m. class.JPatH3292 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 11:35 amI remember reading an article (possibly in the Appalachian) while in school about the time Phish came to varsity gym in the 90s.

Re: Jason Isbell playing Kidd brewer
