Have to vote Isbell, although I think he and Cooley are helped by the fact that DBT does less of their songs, so we get the cream of their crops, so to speak and never get Isbell and Cooley tunes that are just good.  With Hood, we get so much that we get his great AND good songs.

Best Truckers song: Something's Gotta Give
 
 Patterson has MORE good songs, but Cooley hits the mark a higher percentage of the time. Not crazy about Isbell's writing, but he gets the best guitarist award.
 
 See y'all at the rock show.

Wow, I just re-read one of my replies and it sounds like I can't take a joke, my bad.  Anyway, I'll list my top 3 DBT's songs at the moment. It's always subject to change.
 
 1. The Deeper In
 2. Heathens
 3. Daylight

'let me roll it' is indeed the mccartney/wings song.  jason isbell sings the hell out of it.
 
 no idea of 'rebels' is the tom petty song or not, but if it is i wish they'd drop it in favor of 'daylight,' which for my money is a much better tom petty song, even if he didn't write it.
 
 to the guy who asked what a dbt show is like - i saw them new year's morning in nyc last year and, um, they rocked.  little bit of chatting, mostly from patterson - a born frontman if ever there was one - and not a lot of long jamming.  not nearly as much of either as on their great live set, 'alabama ass whuppin.'  here's hoping patterson has some more great stories up his sleeve.
 
 and a personal top five-
 
 outfit
 dead drunk and naked
 do it yourself
 let there be rock
 goddamn lonely love
 
 (i like cooley's songs a lot too, btw)

Seeing as you and your wife are planning on starting a family soon, isn't it best that you refrain from going to clubs and concerts and the like?

We will refrain from going to standing only, smoking clubs, when she's pregnant. Thanks for your concern.

I know most of my top five are Hood songs, but I'm going say that Cooley is my favorite just because there isn't a single Cooley song that I dislike, while there are definitely a few Hood and Isbell songs that I don't like.

Native Athenian and old school DBT fan, I was shocked and pleased! to see the 9:30 sell out. Great sweaty drunk rock show. Happy girl. If anyone is still reading this, maybe clue me in to some good local-ish bands.
