Estimated read time 4 min read

A blizzard hangover didn’t stop a group of flannel-wearing fans of Alt-Country Rock band Drive-By Truckers from making their way to the Larimer Lounge last Sunday afternoon. Following his Saturday night solo show on the same stage, tickets for DBT’s lead guitarist Mike Cooley’s BBQ show were in high demand. It was Sunday Funday at its best – BBQ, gritty Country Rock music, and no-holds-barred stories from the one and only Mike Cooley of Drive-By Truckers.

The White Buffalo – March 24th – The Fox Theatre

Estimated read time 4 min read
