djarrett Posted August 8, 2001 Share Posted August 8, 2001 I've had the great pleasure of knowing Jim Christie for almost 10 years now. I initially set him up with a Mapex endorsement ... and then with Slingerland. (he is now with TAMA). I had never, however, had the pleasure of seeing him play live. Last night I did at the Ryman! WOW! This is a great show. I have to say that I was greatly surprised at just how entertaining Dwight's show is. These boys swing and rock! If you get a chance ... and the show is coming to a town near you ... do yourself a favor and go. You will be thoroughly entertained and get to see a tremendous drummer as a bonus! Thanks, Jim!

Steve LeBlanc Posted August 8, 2001 Share Posted August 8, 2001 I've seen Dwight's band many times and have opened for him with a different band. I agree those guys are fantastic...Bakersfield Country Baby! My Dad was one of the originators of that style...he played with Buck Owens and a bunch of other guys back in 60s Bakersfield. Anyone who hasn't had the chance to check out Dwight Yoakam's show is really missing out...they jam. http://www.youtube.com/notesleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
