It would be awesome if this was a holiday tradition. I only did one night last year, but if it happened again I would probably hit them all.

The fact that my parents live a couple miles down the road (drive on a grand total of three streets to get there) means I have a free place to stay and get "good son" bonus points for visiting. The more of these shows the better!

I would absolutely love to do this again!
Last year was awesome. Up until that point my 2014 hadn't been that great but these three nights at Crossroads really made a difference to turn things around for me. When I now look back at the year, it was one of my best memories. And to add to that the following night at the Court Tavern with Dave Hause.

Who would y'all wanna see open at these shows? I love everyone who's already played, but I also want to hear some new people too. Haven't had many really good live discoveries recently. I'd like to see the old guys come back and some new additions. (Especially some women. I'm sure there are more cool women with guitars other than just the Lauras Jane Grace and Stevenson? Not that I don't appreciate both of them.)

Not sure that she'd be playing (although she is from Elizabeth, so she's local), but Marissa Paternoster from Screaming Females definitely fits the description of cool woman with a guitar. She absolutely shreds. Check her/them out if you aren't familiar with them!
Even if you do know her, I'm posting this cover of Because the Night that she did with Shirley Manson because it's badass as hell:
