Photographs: Dickey Do & The Don’ts live at Proud Larrys’ – October 17, 2014

Dickey Do & The Don’ts, the “Fourth Best Country Band in North Mississippi,” absolutely killed it Friday, October 17 on the Oxford, Mississippi Square. Playing to a packed crowd at Proud Larrys’, The Don’ts whipped the crowd into a frenzy and totally got the Ole Miss Rebels pumped up for the big Homecoming game against the Tennessee Volunteers.

Plenty of “Hotty Toddys” were shouted here and there, throughout the night, as Dickey Do led the band through Country Music classics like “Fishin’ In the Dark,” “Rodeo,” “Dust on The Bottle,” “Song of the South,” “Elvira,” “Fast As You,” and nearly two more hours of other classic songs.

Dickey Do & The Don’ts are Jake Curtis (aka Dickey Do) on guitar, Austin Marshall on drums and vocals, Will Freeman on guitar, Nate Robbins on bass, Steph Gertken on fiddle, and Jeff Crow on keys.
