Christmas Gift Card Haul
I always get a lot of gift cards for Christmas because... well, the music I ask for isn't on the shelf at Walmart 90% of the time and Mamaw Peg and Auntie Suejane never heard of Drive-by Truckers or Hayes Carll. So this year, I got ZERO CDs for Christmas for the first time ever; well, in the CD era anyway... but I got a &*$%load of gift cards, most of them easy to spend on music music music! So anyway, here are my early grabs. What tunes did you snag for Christmas or with the aid of Christmas/holiday gift cards?
The Gourds - Haymaker
Cajun flavored roots rockin', toe tappin' fun.
Brandon Kinney - Smells Like Texas
What a kidder this guy. Funny stuff that I thought would get old after a few listens, but it's actually grown on me... like a mold.
Centro-matic/South San Gabriel - Dual Hawks
Two bands fronted by the same guy (Will Johnson) - one band guitar crunching alt-countryish indie rock, the other more atmospheric alt-countryish indie rock.
Sammy Kershaw - I Can't Reach Her Anymore (single song)
Love this song! Just a good ol' country weeper with a killer hook.

Taylor Swift Parody
Mother-in-Law
(Parody of Taylor Swift’s “Tim McGraw”)
My wife said we’ll have a real good time
She’ll only stay a couple of nights
I said “That’s a lie”
She’ll pull up in her SUV
2 weeks of luggage behind the seat
Wearin’ an evil smile
An’ I’ll be fit to be tied before too long
Smokin’ on the back porch wishin’ that battle axe was gone
When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink
December saw a month of tears
An’ thankin’ God for ice cold beer
To help me stay sane
That woman cut me down like weeds
Her baby deserves better than me
And I’ll never change
It was hard not to find a gun and put it to good use
But I ain’t suicidal and that bitch is bulletproof
When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink
I’ve been sleepin’ on the couch since she left
‘Cause when she fin’ly did go
I told her when she got back home
To tell the other demons hello
When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink
