Southern rockers Drive-By Truckers are at the tail end of a nine-week stint as the opening act for The Black Crowes. One would imagine that nine weeks spent opening for a band who hasnt had a hit in years, and whos latest claim to fame was having their frontman play husband/fashion accessory to Kate Hudson (and even thats shot now) is a hard pill to swallow.
