I finally saw Walk the Line last night. I totally enjoyed it in a movie-of-the-week type way. Great art? Probably not. Really good performances, though. I, for one, dig the casting choices unlike many people.

Brothers and Sisters CD release show!
Friday Feb 3 @ Beerland!
w/ Quien es, BOOM!, Lomita, and David Longoria (of the Black)!

PS! the austin chronicle says nice things about the show!

"The spirit of feel-good Seventies radio is alive and the signal is coming from Austin’s Brothers and Sisters. On their self-titled debut, the handsome sevenpiece tears a page from the alt.country twang of Gram Parsons and the Band, all while radiating sunshine pop and L.A. hooks. The feel-good local album of the new year. Locals Lomita farm out big guitar sounds, Quien es Boom! picks choice jangle, and the Black’s David Longoria cooks up hot licks."
