Encore renditions of The Band’s classic tune “The Weight” are pretty common at live gigs; it seems most any band with a reverence for American music and worth their salt eventually gets around to covering it onstage. Last night’s version at Cat’s Cradle, though, carried a bit more weight than usual—delivered, as it was, on the day that Band drummer Levon Helm died. Two bands who clearly held Levon’s life and memory dear—headliner the Drive-By Truckers and our own local opening act Megafaun—joined forces at the end of the night to offer up an extended tribute, with the audience singing along loud and clear for much of the song. Words fail, ultimately, so just watch, and listen.
