The Big Gun Show Whips Up An Enticing Blend With Its Chablis and Weed

Many disparate elements come together to spell out a sure fire hit for local rockers The Big Gun Show and their intoxicating (pun intended) new single "Chablis and Weed". Lead vocalist Gunter Woodson fashions himself as quite the storyteller, serving up a batch of prime loneliness over vintage wine. For openers the drumming carries itself in he-man style, just smoky enough to command the attention of any of the bar regulars not ready for the slab of take charge attitude headed their way. Chris Collins drops in guitar licks tailor made for a sunny day in Central Texas, car windows rolled down, wind in both the driver's and the hulking pet dog's hair. Would Gunter's lady opt to hook up with him long term? The answer comes in the pasture over the chablis and weed referenced in the title. Adding to the flair of the song is some excellent piano work helping us to remember that, even though The Big Gun Show fits right in as a roadhouse inspired unit, it holds itself in good stead as one of the more sophisticated cocktail served neat outfits you'll ever come across. Yates goes on to tell the tale of how he wined and spellbound the lady of his affections in hopes that she'd commit to him. Meanwhile her baby blue eyes shook him in his shoes. Sound familiar to all you eligible guys on the make? Said female laughs flippantly at his desire for her affection. Despite their both being alone and stoned he wants her to commit to him. Meanwhile she whispers softly to him to pass her the chablis and weed. When you throw in the revival tent aura surrounding the song, "Chablis and Weed" can get the motor running in a variety of ways. The guitar solo at the bridge is explosive in a case of dynamite manner. If what draws you to music happens to be blazing guitar work I promise you disappointment left the room eons ago. Chris takes his instrument and works it down your spine, making sure to cover all the pressure points that need tension release pronto. This is burly fret work that's bound to leave you leaving your listening journey feeling ten feet tall. I'm impressed at how the pace is measured to glean maximum effectiveness. No wasted energy to be found here. The drummer knocks you upside the head, letting you know he means business. The guitarist unfurls his instrument in slow, copious doses so you get the benefit of each toothsome bite. You could be forgiven for swaying in the aisles as "Chablis and Weed" rolls in the jukebox of some honky tonk you've been aching to sample. True believers of the lonely hearts brigade can feel right at home alongside newcomers absorbing their first scar in the name of love. My advice to you is pour a bottle of the good stuff, give your wounds time to become less tender, and take comfort in knowing The Big Gun Show knows, respects, and sympathizes with your pain. http://thebiggunshow.com/chab
