Musick Party @ The Morgans' 12/14/07

Athens music is losing some good ones: Adam & Wendy Musick of Southern Bitch are moving away any day now, taking over their family's farm in Virginia. Kimberly and Brad Morgan (of The Everloving Band and Drive-By Truckers respectively) had a few musician friends over to play songs as a farewell, and record it for a keepsake. We thought some fans might enjoy it too.

Gimme Shelter Benefit @ 40 Watt 8/15/07

A cast of thousands (or a couple dozen at least) of Athens musicians came together to bash out some Neil Young covers, to benefit Athens Area Homeless Shelter. In addition to the singers and bands listed below, lots of assistance was rendered by folks like Clay Leverett (Lona/The Chasers), Michael Gibson (Dashboard Saviors), Todd Nance (Widespread Panic/Barbara Cue), Mike Mills (R.E.M.), John Neff (John Neff), etc.

*** Oh yeah: If you're wondering why this was called "Gimme Shelter", it's because this was the second annual event, and the original one featured Stones songs. ***
