William Elliott Whitmore concert at Daytrotter Studio on 28 May 09

When William Elliott Whitmore asks for a shot of whiskey while in mid-set, he gets a full bottle, sometimes two bottles from the locals, many of whom consider him the down river fishing buddy that they’d overwhelmingly choose to drink to the point of oblivion with, even with their best friend since grade school standing right there with them.
