A few weeks back, Lucero played at the uber-crowded Big Apple BBQ in Manhattan. So while I didn’t get to try Blue Smoke, I did get to see one of my favorite bands for free. Perhaps taking advantage of playing in front of different crowd, the band debuted a lot of new songs from their upcoming full-length. BUT, the highlight of the show was the youngster who hopped on stage towards the end of the show, while the band played “My Tears Don’t Matter Much,” unleashing his best dances moves in front of the crowd. People went bonkers. I think they should hire him full-time. Check out more pictures after the jump.
I’ll be like this guy tomorrow.
Let me paint this scenario for you: Some of the best BBQ NYC has to offer, a free performance from Lucero, lots of adult beverages and (hopefully) a sunny summer day. Sounds great, right?
Well, that all happens tomorrow at the Big Apple BBQ in Madison Square Park. The block party goes down from 11 A.M. till 7:00 P.M.
See you there?
Lucero is set to have some sort of role in a new MTV show titled 5 Dollar Cover that premieres on May 1st at midnight. The show is based around the Memphis music scene and is from Craig Brewer, the director of Hustle and Flow. Unfortunately, the show looks like more reality trash from MTV, let’s just hope they don’t take Lucero down with them. Watch a live clip of Lucero below and the trailer for the TV show, if you dare.

Here’s a video of Chuck Ragan, Lucero’s Ben Nichols and Joshua English performing a cover of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s “Will The Circle Be Unbroken.” The show went down on January 24th at Maxwell’s in Hoboken, a day before the Hot Water Music reunion show in Sayreville, NJ.
