Any fans? Decent show??

I love this guy but never had the opportunity to see him live. Just opened up an email for a pre-sale on his show. Has anyone seen him before? I can only imagine this would be a pretty fun show to see

Like him but never seen him live. His parody of country is more country than current Top 40 bro-country.

Is that an OweO/Owlie collaboration?

He's actually pretty talented. I wish all his songs weren't so filthy.

Saw him in Houston on his first tour. The show itself was pretty fun. Crowd was WAY more frat-tastic than I would have assumed it would be, though.

Actually ended up meeting him and his manager after the show. He was a huge dick and took off real quick after we started talking to him. I couldn’t tell if he was really just rude or he was doing a bit in his Wheeler character. Talked to his manager for a bit afterwards. She kinda confirmed what I noticed about the crowd. She said he was just cranky because he wasn’t drawing the types of crowds he thought he would. I think he thought he’d be getting more hipster/comedy nerds, but he was getting wasted bros yelling at him about tits and dicks from the crowd all night. Ha!

That is zero surprise at all. I don't think hipsters are going in on a David Allan Coe, Jr.

I don’t think his lyrics are clever or his music is good

Wheeler is a character by comedian Ben Hoffman that got popular, so he made an album and that REALLY took off. If what his manager told me was true, I’m sure he was just used to comedy crowds and not bro-country crowds.

Whatever it was…it’s almost 10 years later and he’s still touring. He must have gotten over it!

Wants to pick his fans, and not understanding that fans pick whoever they want.
His songs must be great.
