The Toadies
- Love this band
- first saw them at a local radio station's fall concert (94.5 the buzz in 1995). Tears for fears was the headliner, ECHOBELLY played first, then an unknown band NO DOUBT--We left after the TOADIES and during the first notes of "shout, shout, let it all out...."
- i saw them a few more times in Houston, then the chic bass player was sad and did not want to do it anymore, so they disbanded.
- they had a farewell tour in 2002--probably the best i have ever seen them
- UNTIL this month, they did a three city reunion tour (including 2 sold out shows at stubbs in austin)
- four hashers went--first round of drinks, Rubbin's states, "damn, that was half a keg $$$"
- Then we started getting free beer from this guy (who apparently gets in free and gets free beer). i had to tell him "no more" after awhile, but he kept bringing them anyway.
- concert was good, not the best that i have seen them, though
new chapter---I REALLY LIKE A NEW BAND--Todd Lewis (front man for toadies) leads it
BURDEN BROTHERS--check them out!

thanks - loved the concert. i'll definitely check out the burden brothers. it's one of the two or three cds i'm actually going to buy this year.
They sound pretty good. That concert, drink-wise, reminds me a little of our Zappa experience. I think I was the one saying "no more" at one point!
burden brohers are playing at old town spring crawfish festival on april 28
they rock like nobody's business. I hung with them once in SA and they are F'ing cool peeps too.
