My Spirit Animal is Jeff Goldblum in a Bucket – Happy Hour – It’s New Orleans

Walking into a bar in rural Mississippi can be an unnerving experience. But Jon Hatchett got a good song out of it.

Andrew Duhon’s inspiration for a new song – written just minutes before he played it – was inspired a bucket. It’s about a man who thinks he has it all, described in the chorus as a “5 Gallon Captaincy.”

Jon Hatchett picks up the challenge and debuts a song he also wrote just today, about the upside of drinking heavily, which turns out to a potential country classic called You Can’t Regret What You Can’t Remember.

Meghan Harwell met her husband in high school, not in rural Louisiana but in rural Louisiana. But they didn’t start dating till they ran into each other on Canal Street in New Orleans 4 years ago. Back in high school he didn’t but now he looks like Jeff Goldblum. And like Goldblum’s characters in Jurassic Park and, apparently, Independence Day, Goldblum lookalike is saving the world from disease.
