as a record nerd i am disappointed i didn't buy and decorate on at Solid Sound. kudos to the winner though!

PJ Harvey was outstanding. Go see her if you have even a small chance.

Fu Manchu last night, PJ Harvey tonight.

i bought a GA ticket... shooting him officially is a pain so i am gonna take my chances getting in line super early and bringing in a point and shoot.

saw Kid Congo Powers last night, fun show.

I love having you document SSF!

good seeing you briefly! 'twas a wonderful evening.

really good! he's got a good voice too. excellent set list.

Jah Wobble

yeah i am not compulsive enough to care about every last detail, but as I see photos of set lists in my photo archive i check setlist.fm and update/revise/create as needed. I also went through the archived issues of the Boston Phoenix for a while and searched club listings and added shows i remembered going to in the 90s (and some others too).

it would be nice if you could export your setlist.fm history as a CSV file (but maybe you can?)

yeah i thought Wand was getting on at 9 but turns out it was 9:30 so i could have seen their whole set. i assume they played "Natural One"?

The Rockwell

didn't see you there! (but we got in kinda late, about 10 min before John started... talked w/ Bernhardt for a while and then sat on the floor). fun show, a bit shambolic but i would expect nothing less. left a bit early to catch Wand at Crystal Ballroom a couple blocks away.

kind of off topic but w/ all this discussion about EPs, i just want to toot my own horn a tiny bit and say that i contributed to a book that exalts the EP, with a pretty exhaustive look back at some of the best ones: https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/

i doubt that Belltower or Autumn set the price for the Wilco 12" but that's just a guess. Also, the edition you bought is different from the one that will be fulfilled via the wilcoworld pre-order. you got to customize the sleeve however you wanted, and it's an edition of 1000. the other will have artwork chosen from the ones submitted, and not sure what the pressing size will be or if it will be on white vinyl. some enterprising soul has one of the SSF copies available for $200: https://www.discogs.com/release/31102478-Wilco-Hot-Sun-Cool-Shroud

Thanks Charles and great seeing you again. Lovely photos as always.

is this thing still on? https://bigtakeover.com/concerts/wilco-s-solid-sound-mass-moca-north-adams-june-28-30

i screwed up on Sat night and thought that Ribot was starting right at 11:15 when Wilco was supposed to end. So i sat in a pretty empty theater for 30 min before it started. at least i got to talk early 70s prog rock w/ a couple of people in the row in front of me.

a friend of mine had a group bail out and is looking to move these to fans who need them... message me if interested!

been spinning a lot of my Albini records lately. Rapeman - Two Nuns and a Pack Mule Rapeman - Budd Big Black - Atomizer Big Black - Bulldozer Big Black - Songs About Fucking Big Black - Headache Big Black - Sound Of Impact Shellac - The End of Radio

Just heard JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound’s cover of “I Am Trying To Break Your Heart” at the Publick House.

Cypress Hill and The Pharcyde

i guess in 2015? according to setlist.fm they played 4 of the AMF songs over the two nights. but they shook up the set list pretty well i thought.

Nice! they kinda did this when the Alpha Mike Foxtrot box came out but i am down for a whole show of it.
