Out. Standing. News. !! You still good for SSF5?

Nope.

Regarding the "lack of enthusiasm" for the YHF proponents: Anyone who thinks that hearing "Poor Places" --> "Reservations" is worth their vote is A-OK in my book. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

chiming in.... bbop certainly hit the highlights, but a couple other thoughts - Someone asked Jeff how he formed his affinity for certain guitars, such as the Waterloo models he had, or the Kel models he plays a lot. He said he really didn't know, but that the Waterloo's "sound like an old guitar", and that they held up better than the Kel's, which he said would have some issues while out on the road (bridge falls off?). He also said that he "almost" brought the one guitar that he writes most of his songs on, and then awkwardly tried to explain to Sue why he has so many guitars but only uses

Today I mailed my federal taxes with a big fat check for the 'Merican peoples!! Daddy's little deductions are out on their own now (well, 2 out of 3), and daddy failed to recalculate withholdings for 2016! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome.... It's a great little venue. Bar in the back, btw The gold circle seats are the first 5(?) rows in the front, with folding chairs that are packed in pretty tight. Behind that, there's a rail, then a couple of tiers with seats going back to the bar. Balcony up top that goes up pretty steep. Those seats in the gold circle are obviously great seats. If you get there at doors (7:00), you should be able to get a nice seat near the center. Any of those 5 rows is a great seat (stage is high enough such that any of those are good). You probably won't get there early enough to req

Got a pair in Row B in the presale for Louisville... o happy day!

bummer for you all who were at Big Ears... but wow, that is great news for SS.

I don't think I've ever heard a more appropriate name for the music within an album than "Happiness of Living". The record was birthed in Brazil, and has a blend of Brazilian rhythms, space-pop, sounds, noises, psychedelia, and even vocals(!) which are pure joy. It's extremely musical, with tunes that are both catchy and too-weird-to-be-catchy at the same time.

For those of you who were able to "sign the sign" that some crazy fanboy dude* brought to the show and passed around the pit.... you'll be happy to know that it put a smile on the face of a certain favorite singer of ours. Thanks all for making it a great show and a great evening / weekend. So great to catch up with friends old and new, and spend a fantastic couple of days in Chicago. Vince * crazy fanboy dude would be me, of course.

Having not heard NAK live yet, I was happy for that particular repeat. I have to admit I was a little underwhelmed that the first 3 song run was the same. But sunken treasure and kamera sure sounded great, and I thought the setlist overall made for a great show. One Jeff comment about the crowd was dead on: that the Saturday night crowd was clearly people who had been drinking since early in the day. I thought that they/we kinda ran out of gas at the end with spiders after the BT triple-play. Especially on the floor. It looked like the balcony (what I could see) was actually more energetic t

A, when the hell did you take up running? B, if you were any good at it, you should have been able to OUTRUN a 91YO in a Buick. C, if it had been a black Nova I would have been way more impressed. Seriously man, that's terrible news. Not at all what the dagwave needs these days. But I do hope the Beacon show works out better. It will. Then you can heal up before June and we'll see you at SS5. Oh, and pics or it didn't happen. Cheers!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I for one am THRILLED with the current Jayhawks lineup and latest album. Excited to hear what's next for them. That reunion album was nothing special imo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn't watch the whole show. Is it just his little blurb at the start about G? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
