A lot of people waited until the last minute, but Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears sold out the Tractor and put on an exciting show Tuesday night. The new stuff was very OK, but the early songs were played first and that was what got me pumped. They wouldn’t play Get Yo Shit, even for the tenth anniversary. When somebody requested it, Joe just said, “we haven’t played that song in a long time,” and went on to the next number. I guess there might be concern about stereotypes. Just a guess. I don’t know if that’s Joe’s reason, but it’s gone from the band’s playlist for good. They have a lot of great songs, but I miss that one.
