Cain’s Is The Country Music Place to Be This New Year’s
If you’re going to be in Tulsa this New Years, let me just say on behalf of all the country and roots fans that won’t be, we hate you and your ugly stupid face. It’s completely unfair that you’ll get the opportunity to take in some of the best lineups of performers this side of the big festivals, while the rest of us will be getting dragged to some shitty bar by our significant other to see a Def Leppard cover band or something.
On New Year’s Eve 2019, the historic Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Oklahoma will be hosting one hell of a lineup, with quickly-rising California country star Jesse Daniel taking the stage, then the greatest live band in country music at the moment Mike and the Moonpies, followed up by modern day Country & Western hero Colter Wall. There will be many country music New Years Eve parties all across the country, but few if any with a lineup this stacked.
Then on New Year’s Day 2020, the annual Hangover Ball will commence, which is always a good time. This year’s lineup includes Cody Canada, BJ Barham, Wade Bowen, William Clark Green, Mike McClure, Micky Braun, Jamie Lin Wilson, Kaitlin Butts, Gary Braun, and Adam Hood. The Hangover Ball always has a great lineup, but this year it feels especially stacked. Expect unique song swaps and collaborations in an event that often works as the precursor to The Music Fest in Steamboat Springs, CO that commences days after.
And of course, it all goes down at the Home of Bob Wills in downtown Tulsa, which is a treat unto itself. Cain’s is in the National Register of Historic Places and has been hosting live music since the 30’s, and is cool enough to just stand in the presence of. So if you’re within reasonable driving distance, do yourself a favor and cancel your date with Ryan Seacrest on the widescreen Samsung, and get your country music-loving ass down to Cain’s.
Tickets available at Cainsballroom.com .

Well if we’re doing gig promos, then why don’t y’all come out to Duke’s Indy this Friday the 13th and catch us there. Indy’s newest historic venue and Ameripolitan Award nominee. Enjoy some good country music and Indiana’s best chicken and fixin’s.
Oh–and plenty of Lone Star beer, too.

Filing this info away since I have to be in Indy 10-15 days a year for work. Definitely hitting Duke’s up the next time that I’m town.

And the home of Leon Russell!

I left my heart there. Soaking up a bourbon stain.

I’d like to see Colter Wall and Mike and the Moonpies but im not really comfortable going somewhere named after one of the first and worst sinners in the Bible to do so.
December 10, 2019 @ 1:37 pm
I can’t tell if you’re serious. I hope you aren’t serious. You are joking, right?
December 10, 2019 @ 4:00 pm
Either way, Cain was neither the first nor the worst sinner… hopefully not serious. I have my tickets for both nights, so I will be there. I’m not scared of a place named after a dance teacher.

Uhm he was like 3rd human and killed his brother. Get thee behind me. Does ‘one of the first and worst’ mean ‘the absolute first and worst’?

According to Wikipedia, “Cain’s Ballroom is a historic music venue in Tulsa, Oklahoma that was built in 1924 as a garage for W. Tate Brady’s automobiles. Madison W. “Daddy” Cain purchased the building in 1930 and named it Cain’s Dance Academy….”

Faith is no joke and what your actions matter . Do you walk into burning flames and then wonder why you are feeling the heat?

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Do you have any friends named Adam?
December 11, 2019 @ 7:38 am
No friends named Adam but I got a girl named Gomer. Cheers.

That’s an epic lineup and wouldn’t it be even more so if a certain singing and songwriting Turnpike Troubadour came out of hiding and made a guest appearance?
December 10, 2019 @ 3:03 pm
I went to school in Tulsa and saw many a good concert there. Wish I could still make it, that’s a great lineup!

A man donning a mask comes down from the ceiling, a la Sting in WCW during the late 90s.. He takes off the clip to the suspension cable, slowly walks towards Colter Wall takes his guitar out of his hand and smashes it over his head in Jeff Jarrett/Honky Tonk man style, then grabs another guitar and slowly takes off his mask. BAH GAWD THAT’S EVAN FELKER! The rest of the Troubadours take over the entire set….well the covey took wing…shot gun’s a singin….

If Colters next tour doesn’t have something within 2 hours of Houston I’m going to be very sad. I really want to see him before he starts playing Arenas. Missed my chance with Childers, don’t plan on doing the same with Colter.
