What a show the new owners of O’Leaver’s put on last night. The venue was not over capacity with people to see Tim Kasher — one of those co-owners — who did a number of things right last night. He played some old tunes along with some new ones that will be on his album he is getting ready to record.
Slowdown Virginia was before my day, but somebody from the audience before the show convinced Kasher to go back in the past to his former band when he played “Whipping Stick” from Slowdown Virginia’s Dead Space. He also played The Good Life's “Album of the Year,” accompanied by longtime friend and bandmate, Roger Lewis on drums.
