John Doe & The Sadies @ Lion's Lair, Denver CO, 2009-07-28







This was a fun one.  John Doe fronting a band comprised of The Sadies.  John Doe is from X of course and if your not familiar with The Sadies they are a long running Canadian rock/county band started by the Good brothers in 1994.  They have a big catalog that is worth exploring.

In 2009 they put out an album called Country Club that features a ton of cover songs from known and not so known country artists.  Good stuff.

At this show they played many of those tracks and did some X, John Doe solo, and Sadies songs too.

The Lion's Lair is tiny and recordings from their can features plenty of bar room atmosphere but this is mostly free from that.  You hear the occasional bottle clinking and some crowd chatter but during the music I think this sounds fantastic.  I wish I could remember where I setup my mics for this.

Enjoy
