Tim told <i>The Boise Beat<\/i>, \u201cwe are just really excited to be back playing live shows and hope everyone will come out and support us\u2026\u201d. The Olympic Venue has just recently reopened and it is a great sign for live music in the Treasure Valley. When the pandemic struck it was difficult for the musical community. As Tim Langford said, \u201cwe also put out a new CD last summer called <i>The Remedy<\/i> and weren\u2019t able to tour with it because of COVID, but will be playing some new songs off the album\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Remedy<\/i> shows Too Slim and the Taildraggers at their best. With ten original songs and a cover of Elmore James\u2019 classic <i>Sunnyland Train<\/i>, the album gravitates between blues, rock and Americana. Augmenting the basic Taildraggers sound on The Remedy are some of the band\u2019s favorite harmonica players, a little banjo and some of Tim Langford\u2019s tasty slide guitar. Recorded in Nashville, the album shows the continuing evolution of the Taildragger\u2019s sound, keeping the band\u2019s music fresh while still staying true to their powerful blues-rock roots.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4463\" src=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Gary-Tackett-at-the-Olympic-300x263.jpg\" alt=\"Gary Tackett and Full Moon Rude\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Gary-Tackett-at-the-Olympic-300x263.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Gary-Tackett-at-the-Olympic.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Opening the show are <a href=\"https:\/\/garytackett.com\/\">Gary Tackett and Full Moon Rude<\/a>.

Whether he's looking for the best ceviche in Colombia, the best poke in Hawaii, the best tequila in Jalisco or the best Taiwanese Beef Roll in Los Angeles and Banh Mi in Ho Chi Minh City; it's all good food! He also loves a good drink. He's had Mai Tais in Hawaii, Bourbon in Kentucky, Tequila in Mexico and Rum in Jamaica. His wine escapades have taken him to Napa, Sonoma, the Willamette Valley and Idaho's Sunnyslope wine Trail. And he's had beer all over the world! Music is another of Ed's passions, writing and interviewing many classic rock, rock and blues musicians. Getting the great stories of road experiences from them is a particular delight. Traveling also fits in with Ed's writing, exploring all over to find the most interesting places to visit, even in out of the way areas. Ed lives in Boise and is searching for the best finger steaks in town.","url":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/author\/edsails\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4622"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4625,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622\/revisions\/4625"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4622"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4622"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
