if the publicist had let me know in time, i would have seen New Order tonight.

2014 will see King Diamond as a headliner.

damn that's a freaking ripoff...$40 for parking. parking is always cheaper at The Paradise...except for that one time I parked unknowingly in a tow zone in Brookline. got out of the Wild Flag show only to find a tow truck moving one car, and mine was already gone. that was fun...$40 cab ride to Brookline PD, waited at least an hour for the paper work to come through, then another $60 cab ride to Watertown to get my car. why the hell can't Brookline just use a Brighton or Brookline tow service? i got home about 3AM.

Last year was my first time at Fort Adams, and I only took in Friday and Saturday (and Friday only had Wilco, Blitzen Trapper and Megafaun), so this was a much larger dose. good times, and my cameras survived Friday's rain. http://www.gigwise.com/photos/83256/25-exclusive-photos-from-the-newport-folk-festival some photos not included in that slideshow:

Is that standard parking or some VIP bullshit? btw, Melvins ruled last night. one band that never gets old for me.

five.

for a musician, what's the threshold for considered wealthy these days?

A man, a plan, a canal - enema!

how could they possibly lose artistic credibility with that article? if anything, they would gain it by taking control of their business and not being beholden to others.

in retrospect i kinda regret missing this show, but couldn't find anyone to go with...was traffic a nightmare because of Bon Jovi playing at Foxboro that night?

aye, sporadically. sometimes just hitting refresh works, other times it doesn't

yeah that was a good read. interesting to hear of the band agreement and then how it fell apart. i guess Stirratt had to get bought of that original contract too?

anyone else immediately think of this guy? hint

yeah, it's OM and they did a show at the Temple of Dendur exhibit. rather awesome evening.

disclaimer - it was last night.

just enamored of manhood types. do you know any?

ok

there's been a lot of fucked tour pairings, but i gotta say that Live and Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 has to be near the top.

thanks, I know who J is (and Mark, for that matter....I've got a copy of _The Backyard_ and saw Miracle Legion back in the day; Deep Wound, too for that matter...about the only benefit of growing up in Western MA).

manhood. i bet. caution - the above link contains images of menhood.

but you know what this means, right?

is his avatar compensating? is he some middle-aged, pasty-skinned overweight actuary?
