That was fun.

Exactly --- if the intention was to make people actually think about global warming, etc. while making people laugh - it completely missed the mark for me - the humor, due to the writing, was completely lost on me. (Typically, I enjoy McKay's movies) None of the characters had any redeeming qualities, therefore I couldn't have any empathy for anyone or anything, while watching it.

We watched Don't Look Up --- horrible. We were really rooting for the meteor to hit the earth sooner.

Dead & Co shows are officially off. I can't see the Wilco shows happening... Dead & Company @deadandcompany · 16m With much sadness and after great consideration of every possible scenario, the @PlayTheSand shows in Riviera Cancun on January 7-10 and Jan

Same here.

The below is great --- I don't know much about them -- but what I do know sounds interesting. Did see them once at the first Lolla in 91. Fun. The definitive documentary that will reveal the hole truth and nothing butt

It looks like Mick Taylor started to solo a bit and Keith did not like that --- he just wanted to vamp the riff while Jagger sang the "got to roll" bit.

Thanks for the review. Dylan was definitely more active at the Columbus show. The Columbus crowd was great, as well. People were glued to their seats.

The Stones re-released it in the theaters in 2010 - it was cool to see on the big screen. Re-watched during DVD binge, after Charlie passed away.

Never noticed that. Need to rewatch that "Tumbling Dice"

Are you talking about the Ladies and Gentlemen's release?

Curious of your thoughts.

My wife and I were at the September 13, 2003 REM/Wilco show --- great Kicking Television opener. A cold, cold night.

After lurking around for a while, I officially joined in Nov. 2005 ---- I needed to fill in some blanks in my head regarding Tweedy's 11.5.2005 solo show in Madison. That was a fun night. It's been a nice ride on the board, since.

Saw his dad on Saturday night in Columbus, Ohio. Still going strong at 80. 8 new tunes off his latest record. Saturday's show was my 21st and it was definitely the best produced show I seen from Dylan. The lighting was was great. They built up the stage and the band played on a light box, which was used very nicely. Definitely had a 'play-like' production feel.

The latest recored never jumped out at me, I have only listened to it a handful of times, but I glad he is playing 8 of the tunes --- probably would have skipped this tour if he only played 1 or 2. I am curious to see if he keeps playing all 8. While looking for restaurants near the theater, I saw that a place called Ringside Cafe is right around the corner -- opened since 1897. Need to see I can spot a guy with a grey hoodie soaking up the boxing motif ambiance while enjoying a burger and a beer....

Congrats Boss_Tweedy ---- must admit the chop bugs the hell out me, but they had an interesting year and they turned it around the right time. Their front office should get an award for the wonders they did this year, as well as the manager. Congrats.

Yeah I heard about Sexton playing with Costello --- definitely will be missed. Will see how the replacement is. Never heard of Doug Lancio. I just saw that he is on some John Hiatt records that I have - didn't recognize the name. Bob Britt was playing with him in 2019 -- I enjoyed his playing when I saw the show in Chicago.

Start of the tour last night --- a lot of new tunes off his latest, which is cool. New drummer and guitar player. Just decided to make a family trip to Columbus, Ohio to catch a show this Saturday. Interestingly - I will be seeing another X-Pensive Wino -- Charley Drayton, saw Steve Jordan last week with the Stones. The Expecting Rain site needs to learn how to spell Drayton's first name. Milwaukee, Wisconsin Riverside Theatre November 2, 2021

Heading up to Minnesota today for the Stones' Sunday concert. I am looking forward to see what Steve Jordan brings to the table. Guessing it will be both a sad and sweet show. I am glad I saw the two Soldier Field shows in 2019 --- those shows will serve as the bookends, while this weekend's show is the afterword.

I enjoyed watching this. An interesting guy.

I think Offerman and Tweedy touched upon this story during their 'web-talk' for Tweedy's songwriting book. My wife and I did this trail - he definitely hits descriptions nicely.

some nice shots with Nels (via Relix). Listened to the show on the archive - sounded great.

Looks like you are heading down to the Ryman -- what a great place to see Hiatt with The Jerry Douglas Band. Enjoy.

Dead & Co. The last band I saw in '19 was Sleep. From one "stoner rock" band to another (kind of).
