Gram Parsons Birthday Bash!
Thursday, November 29, 2007

Wow what a night. Sixteen great artists. Dozens of Gram Parsons songs. Author David N. Meyer reading from his brand new book, "Twenty Thousand Roads: The Ballad of Gram Parsons and his Cosmic American Music." And close to 150 fans and friends to party with.

It was the New Heathens' first gig with bassist Brandy Wood and I don't think we've ever sounded better.

Read a great review of the night by B.B. Gun singer Megan Gilbert.

I'll let these pictures do the talking:
