Show dates - this info is WAY too hard to find...

Just bought tix for Lancaster, PA show on August 5:

http://www.amtshows.com/The-Mavericks/

Pollstar didn't have the info.  Mavericks new website, http://www.themavericksband.com/, didn't.  Big Machine site did.  IN THE PUBLIC COMMENTS AREA, man.  http://www.bigmachinemusic.com/story/news-the_valory_music_co/the-mavericks-return-announce-dates

If you hear of something, post it!

Photos from Stagecoach 2012

Here are 17 excellent photos from Stagecoach that Jerry Dale located at Zimbio, credits to Frazer Harrison:

Mavs are photos numbers 604-620

One nice long Stagecoach video on youtube:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggILE57YLO8

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, a radio cut of "Born to be Blue":

And the possibility that the album may be out sooner than this Fall.  June?

"Stagecoach" show is tonight

The festival is sold out, so it's not like I can help promote it or anything.  Here's hoping that it brings a whole new fan base into the Mavs' future.  A great article in the LA Times to whet the appetite:

I'm betting that someone in the band will make a pilgrimage to Joshua Tree in memory of Gram Parsons.

Looking forward to a collection of live videos tomorrow on youtube.

New album this fall, and new single soon.

Enjoy!

Guest drummer on "Bottle"

I'll admit that I clicked PLAY on this one to see Mr McFadden back in action but young Mr Dino Malo certainly did a job guesting at the drum kit:

"Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down"

New live video clips

Mavs fans have posted over a dozen video clips from this past weekend's Nashville appearances.  This link should get you there:

If you have trouble, go to youtube and use "mavericks 3rd & lindsley" in the search box.

And, as if it needed to be said...

Enjoy!
