If you like country music — real authentic country music about drinking and truck driving and farming and drinking you should have 
been at Andrew Neville and the Poor Choices, at the Slice, Sept. 8.
But first, The Shaela Miler Threesome, with special guest, former D-Rangers and current Poor Choices bassist Tom, ‘Twisty’ Fodey took the stage to play crowd favourites including “Loving Me,” “ Half Way in Love,” and whole bunch of excellent new, heavily old school country influenced songs.
One of my favourite new songs “Problems” had a Trisha Yearwood sound to it.
Andrew Neville added a lot more twang to the evening with his upbeat, country-fried set of original music about trucking, alcohol, Winnipeg and having a good time with all of those.
He also played several covers from Waylon Jennings and Jimmy Rogers and other old school country players as well as an outstanding version of Stompin’ Tom Connors’ “Sudbury Saturday Night.”
One of several highlights was his “Town Song.”
Another great one, just in time for harvest season, was “Farming Life.”
His band, including Taylor Ackerman on lead guitar were fantastic.
