    Dylan, Wilco, My Morning Jacket summer tour

    in Just A Fan

    Posted

    While doors are listed as 4, the show time for the St. Paul date on Wilco's site says 5:30, which would mean possibly only an hour for MMJ and Wilco sadly :(

     

    My guess:

     

    5:30-6 Richard Thompson

    6:30-7:30 MMJ

    8-9 Wilco

    9:30-11 Bob

     

    I don't see a show at Midway going later than 11 sadly, as there are homes nearby

'Don't Swallow The Cap'
     
    
Dawn light breaks behind the houses
    
I don't see what's strange about this.
    
Tiny bubbles hang above me.
    
It's a sign that someone loves me.
    
I can hardly stand upright
    
Hit my head up on the light
    
I have faith but don't believe you
    
This love ain't enough to leave you.
     
    
Everything I love is on the table.
    
Everything I love is out to sea.
     
    
I have only two emotions,
    
Careful fear and dead devotion.
    
I can't get the balance right.
    
Throw my marbles in the fight.
    
I see all the ones I wept for
    
All the things I had it in for
    
I won't cry until I hear
    
Cuz I was not supposed to be here.
     
    
Everything I love is on the table.
    
Everything I love is out to sea.
    
I'm not alone,
    
I'll never be.
    
Into the bone,
    
I'll never grieve.
     
    
I'm tired, I'm freezing, i'm dumb
    
When it gets so late I forget everyone.
    
I need somewhere to stay.
    
Don't think anybody I know is awake.
    
Calm down it's alright,
    
Keep my arms the rest of the night.
    
When they ask what do i see,
    
I see a bright white beautiful heaven hangin' over me.
     
    
I'm not alone,
    
I'll never be.
    
Into the bone,
    
I'll never grieve.
    
And if you want, (too seriously)
    
To see me cry. (don't swallow the cap)
    
Play 'Let It Be' (pat yourself on the back)
    
Or 'Nevermind'. (too seriously)
     
    
There's a time to leave, there's a time to think about
    
What I wanna say to the girls at the door.
    
I need somewhere to be
    
But i can't get around the river in front of me.
    
Come down it's alright,
    
Lead my arms the rest of the night.
    
When they ask what do i see,
    
I see a bright white beautiful heaven hangin' over me.
     
    
I'm not alone, (too seriously)
    
I'll never be. (don't swallow the cap)
    
Into the bones, (pat yourself on the back)
    
I'll never grieve (too seriously)
    
And if you want, (too seriously)
    
To see me cry, (don't swallow the cap)
    
Play 'Let It Be' (pat yourself on the back)
    
Or 'Nevermind'. (too seriously)

    Yikes.....snap.

     

    That does sound kind of cool actually.  I like the guy, but he does take himself pretty seriously.

    he's one of the goofiest and nicest people i've ever met and seen on stage...

     

    you're entitled to your perception, but I can assure you it is off base.

    Nearly six years since I posted a badly spelled post the last time and I have to say that Glenn Hansard who did a solo set at the Hideout Block Party last year, has gotten so boring.  The Frames were a moderately interesting band and the Swell Season and the movie Once were pretty and fun, but he just isn't that important or that good by himself.  Just my opinion really.  Does he need a solo career and did Once deserve the Broadway musical treatment?  Maybe I don't know.

    the Glen show i saw last summer at First Avenue with all the members of The Frames + Levon Helm's horn section was one of the best shows i've ever seen Glen do in a decade or more and top 3 shows i saw all last year...

    yep.

     

    i'm at about a dozen listens and now i absolutely love it :)

     

    my best take on the lyrics:

     

    When I think of you in the city,The sight of you among the sites.I get this sudden sinking feeling,Of a man about to fly.Never kept me up before,Now I've been awake for days.I can't fight it anymore,I'm going through an awkward phase.I am secretly in love with,Everyone that I grew up with.Do my crying underwater,I can't get down any farther.All my drowning friends can see,Now there is no running from it.It's become the crux of me,I wish that I could rise above it.But I stay down,With my demons.But I stay down,With my demonsPassing buzzards in the sky,Alligators in the sewers.I don't even wonder why,Hide among the under views.Huddle with them all night long,The worried talk with god goes on.I sincerely tried to love her,Wish that I could rise above her.But I stay down,With my demons.I stay down,With my demonsI stay down,With my demons.I stay down,With my demonsI stay down,With my demonsBut I stay down,With my demonsCannot stay here I can't sleep,on the floor.Drink the blood and hang the palms,On the door.Do not think I'm going places anymore,Wanna see the sun come above New York.Oh, everyday I start so great,Then the sunlight dims.Less I've learned,The more I see the pythons and the limbs.Do not know what's wrong with me,Sours in the cut.When I walk into a room,I do not light it up.Fuck.So I stay down,With my demonsI stay down,With my demonsI stay down,With my demonsI stay down,With my demons
