2:00 Dizzy Bridges 2:45 Michael Steven Cohen 3:30 Kerosene Stars 4:15 Rollo Time 5:00 Otter Petter 5:45 The Jeremy Band

"Pat Stone & The Dirty Boots play it similar to acts like Uncle Tupelo and Old 97’s. That is to say it’s often rock (or even punk) masquerading as a country band, often times not even in a very comprehensive disguise. While they may be hiding a bunch of tattoos under their flannels, Pat Stone and his band of merry ramblers deftly keep things gritty and a little dust-covered in the way that all the best alt country acts are able to." - Chip McCabe, www.themetaldad.com
