Probably the least known name at BSR this year is Nervous Turkey. They're a local Tampa band that JJ met a year or so back when they were scheduled to open for Mofro at Skipper's. Well, JJ and the guys really liked 'em and since then the Turkeys have opened several shows for them.
I've been to a number of their shows and these boys are bad to the bone. They lay down some gritty blues and have fun while doing it.
I posted some pics and a couple links for those who are interested: http://www.mofrofans.com/nervousturkeypics.html

Antsy how much have you had to drink??
Yeah, the shirt thing is part of his gig. It's fun to watch first-timers at one of their shows because when he loses the shirt their mouths drop. Two things to keep in mind--2 of those shows were outside, in Florida, in the summer. Annnnnd, he only loses the shirt toward the end, maybe last 4 or 5 songs. One song he "plucks" his belly fat. Okay, try and picture THAT! It's all part of the schtick though--it has you dancing and laughin your ass off at the same time!

I FRIGGIN' LOVE THIS BAND!!!
I haven't been this excited about a band since MOFRO, seriously. Liz saw 'em before me, and first time I saw 'em it was ON! Been taping 'em for about a year or so.
If you wanna see something great...buy Ernie several shots of whiskey, and have a pocket full of quarters, when the shirt comes off you'll know what I'm talking about.
I generally like live stuff better than studio stuff, but I gotta say thier studio album "FATBOY LIKES TO ROLL" is an exception to that rule. And check out track 15!
