Jason Isbell who until recently was with the Drive-By
Truckers wrote a
song
in 2006 about Matthew Conley, a guy he knew from his
hometown in
Alabama who
had joined the Marines after high school and died in
Iraq right before
his
tour was up while his wife was 9 months pregnant.This
is heavy.I was at
the
show where the concert portion of this video was
filmed and it tore my
ass
up as did this link below.
