Lucero - Wandering Star

[purchase]

This song comes off Lucero's 2001 self-titled album. The opening verses of this song rang so true to me before I met my wife:

the bands are done I should go home
all my friends left a long time ago
the girl serving drinks is the only one I know
I got no good place to go

Man. For those that don't know...Lucero is easily one of the best bands in America right now. Having recently signed a 4 album major label deal I hope the whole country is about to know of them. Once a reviewer dispatched to review a Lucero concert penned that he thought the crowd might have been just as happy getting drunk and singing a long to a jukebox. He might not have been that far off.
