Joe Jack Talcum - 2011.10.15 @ Caledonia Lounge (Athens PopFest 2011)

There had been a few rumors spreading around town (and around the internet) about this show. It had originally appeared on the popfest's site, then was suddenly gone. Then it returned. Then there were rumors about who was going to be backing Joe at this show. Turns out it was a band called "The Threads." Three guys wearing funny beards who had a strong resemblance to the rest of the Dead Milkmen took the stage along with Joe and played a set that consisted mostly of Joe Jack's solo songs, a cover of a Faderhead song, and a Dead Milkmen song.

I do believe that the crowd (that was pretty big at the start, but kept growing as the show progressed) was treated to a once-in-a-lifetime set!

1:11 - Hey Lolly
2:51 - Stranger Gold
5:33 - Coke For My Ass (Faderhead cover)
9:05 - Alcohol
12:33 - Not Crazy
15:01 - Yesterday I Was Talking To My Sister
17:20 - Life Is Better In The Movies
19:23 - Smell The Coffee
21:52 - Head To Toe

@DiggityDave83 You've very welcome! Ever since discovering the Dead Milkmen years ago when I was in High School, their music has always been something that has made my life better and happier. I love being able to now be in a position to help bring as much of their music and concerts to others in hope that their music continues to positively effect the lives of others.
