Good tune -- never heard of him, but did see he is playing two sold out shows at Thalia Hall in Chicago this month. Good on 'em.

Sadly I don't think Farrell is capable of thinking at this point. Hopefully he gets the help he needs.

Canceled --- that's that.

Have tickets in hand for their September 24th Chicago show. I am hoping they just postpone the tour, so Farrell can get help. The whole thing is unfortunate and sad.

Tre Cool definitely was great -- as well as well the rest of the band --- I can see how Billie Joe Armstrong lost his voice. I thought the Pumpkins were great, too. Like Tre Cool - it was great to see Jimmy Chamberlin play - he makes it seem so effortless - yet the sound he produces sounds so great and powerful. Seeing the Pumpkins play Wrigley was pretty special. Billy gave a shout out to how they use to practice at the Cubby Bear (a bar across the street from Wrigley) and said it only took 36 years to play Wrigley. Iha gave all the shout outs to the rest of the bands

Green Day at Wrigley (With Rancid, Pumpkins, and the LInda Lindas). My kid wanted to go. Should be a hoot.

I was surprised to see a Topps commercial, then i noticed the Wilco tune and my surprise got even bigger. Pretty cool commercial- as a former baseball card collector, myself. My kid settled on Pokémon...

Just finished watching the first two seasons of Babylon Berlin --- really well done. Some of the characters/storylines are a bit of a stretch --- but it is definitely entertaining. One gets the sense of the 'flapper 20's' nicely during the nightclub scenes. Really enjoy the music, through out.

I have spread sheets of Dylan, Stones, and Grateful Dead songs seen - but I don't think I have done one for Wilco. Always a fun activity to do.

I'll guess "California Stars" -- (Brian F.)

2-1 England. Saka and Foden. Looking forward to the match. Will have a large gathering at my local pub.

Awesome match yesterday (England - Netherlands) -- England looked great in the 1st half -- 2nd half not so much, but pulled it out yet again - a great goal by Watkins. Foden had a great 1st half, but none of found the net.

I tried getting into the Copa cup - but after watching the Euro's during the day - it always seemed like a let down watching the Copa.

The Euro's have been a hoot - for the most part. Gonna be sad when it ends. Rooting for England.

Future Islands at the Auditorium in Chicago. Looking forward to it.
