Customer Reviews of Widespread Panic - Live from the Backyard in Austin, TX
It is, what it is ... After viewing this several times and then comparing to the "Live at Oak Mtn" show, it's apparent these guys are tyring hard to carry on. But, it needs to be taken in the context of when it was recorded: three weeks after Houser leaves the band and discloses he's dying and three weeks before he does die.
With that in mind, what an inspired show. It still rocks and rocks hard in the 2nd set. The jam is very cool. I disagree this is a band in decline. They take their lumps and do what they do best ... play.
Compare this to the recent Allman Brother's "live at the Beacon" dvd (which incidently was filmed by the same guys) and you'll see a big difference.
Excellent DVD
As a recent Widespread fan, I understand the controversy behind George's addition to the band. However, he truly shines on this dvd in several songs. Although "Bayou Lena" isn't typical of WP, it made the dvd a must have for me, and "Stop Breaking Down Blues" is mind blowing with the guy from North Miss. All Stars making a guest appearance. The future of Widespread looks bright.
Great Show, Great Sound!!
I have read numerous reviews from folks that do not like this DVD because Michael Houser is no longer with us. It is rather obvious to me that these folk have no idea what they are talking about. Perhaps they would have preferred if WP had just quit making music after Michael passed away? Or perhaps, they feel that Michael's body would have played a good guitar?
This is a GREAT concert. Do not let these other rubes that detract from this DVD fool you. I would say that Mr. Houser would be very proud to see his band striving on, in the face of adversity, still making awesome music. George McConnell plays a mean guitar and fills Michael's shoes just nicely, thank you very much! Rock on WP!!
