Hello Everybody, Sorry to break the news to everyone, but I saw this on a listening post at Borders for 'The Instigator' : "Although the Dallas quartet Old 97s...
All I can say is, don't believe everything you read. I find it hard to believe that the 97's played two shows (and great ones at that, from what I've read)...

when old 97's played here the other night, rhett called "won't be home no more" the "new song" that will be on the "new old 97's record". so i mean, they are...
Um, obviously I can't really speak for Michael, but I think he was being silly when he posted that. He was at the Austin show (he posted the set list), so he...

FWIW, the station in Chicago that has always played Old 97's put Come Around in rotation as part of a little push for Rhett when Instigator was first released,...
