I've been waiting a long time for this. Finally a few good videos of Daisy Mayhem.

The title made me think your flower garden was a wild success this year.

That would be Dandelions Akimbo. Or maybe Amok.

The first time I heard them was by chance (same as with Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer). I was going to see Harmonious Wail and they were a surprise opening act. Don't even remember the year.

I've slipped across the river a couple of times to hear 'em. Always bedazzled.

Great stuff. What a voice. Guitar player is kind of dull. Love the drums, too.

In a small acoustic group, everything counts the most. Allison Kraus never suffered by having Jerry Douglas there, or any of the other great players she has had with her. |

Tyminski and Block are great, they shine without stepping on toes. |

Very nice stuff. Great voice and arrangement. I like the tone and tempo of the guitar work, but sharing the spotlight as it did, it was missing something for me. I bet the same player could play a different lead that would knock my sox off.

They're most definitely a band of team players. The single thing that stands out at a concert is how well they play together -- how tight their harmonies are, and how the instruments serve the music. They're not a band of individual hot pickers taking turns wowing the audience. They have a carefully selected repertoire of arrangements that they perform as a group.

I'm not scolding, mind you, just thought I would pass on an interesting word fact, one that I ran across a mere 10 years ago or so. So, for instance, it would be correct to say "kudos IS deserved ... " Just substitute "praise" whenever you see the word, as it is inherently singular. |

They're not a band of individual hot pickers taking turns wowing the audience. They have a carefully selected repertoire of arrangements that they perform as a group. I like bands where everyone is a hot player, that can step out when the opportunity is there, and provide great backing and togetherness the rest of the time. That's what I see in Union Station. Don't get me wrong, I like these guys just fine, but I like it to be more. That is a totally nondescript guitar solo. If he's going to take a solo, it should either be a elaboration on the melody, or something interesting all on its own. It's neither, it's just some half decent bluesy noodling. |
