Widespread Panic on Austin City Limits...


Anyone catch the show aired twice this week on PBS HD, great show! I only have one album so far but the more I hear these guys the more I like them.

Don't tell the Band, 'Til the Medicine Takes, Aint Life Grand and Ball are my favorite Panic CD's. Other studio releases are just a notch below. Of course they made their mark with thier live shows. Great band.
I am quite familiar with these guys having seen over 200 of their shows across the country. They are extremely fun. A highly explosive act for sure.
The band went through some dark times after their founding member and lead guitarist died, but they have new life in them now thanks to the guitar heroics of Jimmy Herring (ARU, Phil and Friends, The Dead).
I highly recommend "Light Fuse, Get Away". Its a live compilation disc from the shows in '97. Really good stuff and perfectly mixed soundboards. The new album is a good taste of what they sound like with Herring. Have fun!
