SET 1
you ain´t listening
hanging by a thread

stubborn as a mule
no cover charge
possum chops
blind willie mctell
one way out
your´s ain´t bigger
made from scratch
shakin´this old tree

Set 2
leaving you this morning
stand still
don´t want you no more > it´s not my cross to bear
shame on me
jesse
the shiek
>back in the game

encore:
you don´t love me

The first time i saw Tim was in a Roadside Bar in Macon,Ga on Gray Highway.
He was just by his own,playing solo.Sometimes he used a Keyboard for sample some loops to back up his Guitar playing and singing.
This was way before the Jam Band thing.
I guess I was the only guy who was listening.Almost nobody gave a shit.People were in just to have a drink and talk.
Many years later we saw him and his Band the Alien Sharecroppers up in Rome,Ga on a Saturday night.
It was just an incredible Road performance.Jonathan the other guitar player played through one of the Marshall Tops from Duane Allman painted in dark purple.Tim told me the amp original had "Duane left" stamped on it.
In the meantime we saw Tim playing accoustic Guitar on the front porch of his home telling us stories about the old times way back when in Macon...Capricorn Rec. ...Music...Duane....anyway that night in Rome,Ga we asked him if would like to come on over with his Band to Germany for some accoustic gigs to keep things a little smaller.
Well we ended up doing the whole electric Band set up.
Together with friends we arranged some gigs for the Band(Germany,Switzerland,Holland).
It was fun from day 1 to the last one.
This show includes an almost 28 minute "You don´t love me" version from the Allman Brothers Band
If you like the early Allman Brothers go for it.

Enjoy !!!
