44 dana wheeler-nicholson 46 free week live shots part 2 64 music listingsup against the green room, redneck mother: (l-r) Johnmichael schoepf, kyle schneider, ray wylie hubbard,and lucas hubbard backstage at LettermanScrew You,We’re From TexasRay Wylie Hubbard compared last week’sappearance on the Late Show With DavidLetterman to being at Six Flags. “You wait and waitand wait, then, all of a sudden, you’re on this oldwooden roller coaster for three and a half minutes.Your heart’s pumping! It’s exciting, and then it’s over,and you’re like, ‘Man, I want to do that again!’” Atthe host’s request, Hubbard performed “MotherBlues” off last year’s The Grifter’s Hymnal. The talkingblues, which was shortened to fit the program,describes how his superficial desires for a strippergirlfriend and a Les Paul Goldtop guitar led him to afulfilling family life. The epic story song resolved intoheartwarming gratitude, with Hubbard giving thanksto Letterman for having him on the show, and to hisson Lucas for playing lead guitar on a handed-downLes Paul Goldtop. It was a hilarious, touching, andenergetic performance that probably boosted“Mother Blues” stock as a fan favorite. In a raremove, Letterman asked the local and his band tostick around and play another request, “Screw You,We’re From Texas,” which they obliged. On playingthe Late Show for the first time at age 66, Hubbardcommented, “I didn’t want to peak too early.”b yHalf Notesk e vc u r t› SXSW revealed its thirdwave of performers for the2013 music conference.Vampire Weekend, Eaglesof Death Metal, LocalNatives, Jovanotti, andZ-Ro are included in thelist of almost 500 newlyannounced acts.

It’s time for you to show it off by telling us who the best musicmakersin town are via the 2012-13 Austin Music Poll. This entirely write-in ballot with 45 categoriesremains the most unfiltered and democratic method of ranking and recognizing local musicians.Last year, Quiet Company and Wheeler Brothers combined for 15 awards – a demonstration,in part, of those bands’ abilities to mobilize their fans to vote. By now, you’ve already hadyour friends hit you up on Facebook asking you to vote for them in one category or 10, and byall means, vote for them, but I urge you to be diverse in your selections. Top finishers in eachcategory receive onstage honors at the Austin Music Awards at South by Southwest,Wednesday, March 13. Last year Bruce Springsteen closed the show.So, fill out a ballot. I’ve included a copy of my own:› Eighteen-year-old fiddle phenomRuby Jane didn’t expectto see her violin again. Whenarmed carjackers made offwith her gear in Houston lastwinter, it was all over thenews. “With all the coveragethe carjacking got, I thoughtthey would have burned it todestroy the evidence,” shesays. She was thus shockedwhen a friend saw the instrumentfor sale last week onCraigslist. Jane and hermother, JoBell Smith, calledthe police department, whichset up a sting and recoveredthe violin. “It was surreal andamazing to hold it in myhands again and think abouteverything it’s been through,”glowed the young musician.“It was divine providence thatit was brought back to me.”BEST AUSTIN MUSICIANSFemale Vocals: Dana FalconberryMale Vocals: Hayes CarllElectric Guitar: Dani Neff (Megafauna)Acoustic Guitar: Willie NelsonBass: David Beck (Sons of Fathers)Drums/Percussion: Erik Conn (Tia Carrera)Keyboards: Dylan M.
