Thank you for the post. I had planned on going to the Tuesday night show, couldn't make it to Thursday's show. I was at the show in Ashville where Lilac Rain made her stage debut, it was really cool. Then every subsequent show, she'd be there, and he'd carry her around during Hummingbird. The last time I saw this happen, she was pretty damn big, looked kinda awkward.

Transaction complete, tickets sold.

I will not be able to attend the Raleigh show on October 25 at the NC Museum of the Arts. When tickets went on sale, I got too excited and purchased tickets for both the Knoxville and the Raleigh shows, but there's no way I can do that much traveling in so few days. Face value of the two lawn tickets is $91.25.

Ben Folds - Bitches Ain't Shit

Not savvy enough to get the youtube video in this post but this is the Oak Ridge Boys doing Seven Nation Army.

Geez guys - someone finally breaks the mold on AI and he gets all this harsh criticism. He's a Ryan Adams fan and chose his song because Ryan is his 'idol'. Props to him, way to go. I'd rather hear him sing Ryan Adams, Tweedy, Rod Stewart - whoever, as opposed to the majority of the crap people sing on that show. Yea, the show is ridiculous but it has America as its audience. And he wore a Nudie suit.

Unbelievable, thanks for the link. What a nightmare.

The filming of TWD is great, but I'm having trouble with the characters. They guy they left on the roof? Who cares? I didn't feel sorry for him at all and now realize that he's going to show up in future episodes. His brother is an idiot too. And the guy that the wife hooked up with? He seemed like a total asshole before the husband came back, so he didn't win me over. The wife is boring. The kid kind of looks like a zombie with his blank stare, and so does the main character. Wish the characters had some personality besides being jerks.

Maktub - Just Like Murder

Thanks for the Reggie Watts post, just discovered him and his band, Maktub, recently. Love Maktub and he's quite interesting in himself.

Now that made me smile!!!

Rearranged - Limp Bizkit I know... I know...But it IS a good break up song.

Tweedy Cat Glenn Kittchy

Been to NYC twice in the past year for fun and have learned quite a few things, one of the most important is buy an unlimited metro card for $21 - good for 7 days. You can ride the buses and subways to get anywhere you want to be for a fraction of the cost of cabs. Don't do the Gray Line tour thing - expensive and annoying. You get better views from the mass transit buses. There are plenty of things you can do free - Staten Island Ferry for example, goes right by the statue of liberty. Central Park and Riverside Park are great. Walk across the Brooklyn Bridge... Have fun!!!

Lowe's Home Improvement a couple hours ago - Impossible Germany.

Jolly Mon Sing - Jimmy Buffett It's a children's book AND a song.

You have to write a 100 word essay about your favorite Wilco song. Cool.

Live Nation: Jimmy Buffett lawn ticket = $29.00 Fees = $19.10 Total = $48.10 That was a pisser.

I didn't drive four hours to see my favorite band to watch the back of somebody's head for two hours. I've attended many concerts and had someone blocking my view the majority of the show. Right, it's a rock concert and people will be drunk and active, however, treat the people behind you with respect. It's a given that standing and dancing will be happening on the floor but if you are obviously blocking several rows behind you (ie the balcony), be sympathetic. I was on the first row of the balcony (Knoxville) but if I'd stood, I'd have blocked everyone behind me. It was all good.

That WAS interesting, glad to have had the opportunity to see, thanks!

WWO = Wilco World Order

Ryan Adams. saw him in Asheville a few years ago, and was bored out of my mind. He kept his back to the audience for the first half of the show, or hid beneath his skater bangs and bossed the band around.

I'm going to be in NYC when they play at The Irving, trying to decide quickly if I should see them. I live very close to Concord NC (their hometown) and have seen them a thousand times but never in NYC!

I always HATED that song by The Outfield "Your Love". Anything by Mariah Carey makes me want to curl up in the fetal position and go to my happy place.
