Tom V. was there in spirit

This was my first time getting to see Hashknife Outfit without them being Soda's backup. They were local support for Pushin' Rope. The show took place at the Rhythm Room 8/30/09 in Phoenix,AZ.

HASHKNIFE OUTFIT

Hashknife covered my favorite Tom Vandenavond song and played some great originals as well.

PUSHIN' ROPE

The vocalist is an auctioneer from what I've been told and you can kind of tell in his vocal styling

a night filled with Troubadors

This is the best lineup of artists I have seen this year besides MDF. Four individuals with haunting vocals and vivid storytelling ability took the stage of the Rhythm Room 7/6/09 in Phoenix,AZ.

TOM VANDENAVOND

This was the 4th or 5th time I have seen this guy play, and could probably watch him a couple times a week and not get tired of it.

WILLY TEA

I havent been captivated by a solo performance like this in years. Willy Tea had my full attention from start to finish and I will never miss a chance to see him play.

MARIO MATTEOLI

what more can I say about this guy. love his music

SODA & his HASHKNIFE OUTFIT

the only way i could ever describe Soda's style would be gypsy hillbilly, not that it matters when its this good
