Alejandro Escovedo - ACL 2008 Pre Show Sound Check at Shady Grove

We were at the show so early, we got to hear the sound check. You can see those videos at http://www.youtube.com/downthunderroad . After the sound check we chatted with Alejandro for awhile. He was still beaming from getting to meet Jimmy Carter at the DNC this summer. It was a bigger thrill than being on stage with Springsteen. I actually think he has his priorities on right. :-) The opening act was The Jones Family.
