Whaddaya know, me and the lord got something in common - and I'm not just talking bout our majestic coifs or our prowess in bed. No, I'm talking about one of my favorite bands, The Asylum Street Spankers. This Austin, Texas, Tin Pan Alley, Beat poet, subversive, sexy, jazzy, bluesy, ballsy acoustic musical confablulation has just released its ninth album, "God's Favorite Band," a platter stuffed full of gospel goodness. The resulting "Salvation and Sin" tour that brings them to upstate shores will feature two sets: a gospel set full of redemption and sanctification and weeping and gnashing of teeth, and a set about all the things that keep the first half in business. Can I get a hell yeah?
