I guess I'm pretty amazed that there were some songs people didn't know very well...that performance was like an awesome radio station cranking out total bliss. even though they didn't play my request of "Gold Soundz," I will take some credit for getting Pavement in there

white denim was really disappointing to me...*way* too much jam action, which i hadn't really picked up on via the recordings I'd heard. Ribot and Hidalgo were excellent today. i love Marc's playing so much, and he was having a lot of fun today. it sucked. first off, the old fart demanded that everyone sit down. what the hell is that all about? then they played recordings of themselves talking, ruining the chance for Glenn and Darin to really cut loose. boring and pointless, sadly. thanks, and likewise! safe travels back home.

It was alright but being billed as "dinner with the band" was a big stretch. Tweedy went around the enormously long single table and high fived everyone. There was probably 100 ppl or so. At least.

When I heard the ABBA cover I was pretty happy about this board. People win on Via Chicago. Though my particular Pavement request wasn't played (Gold Soundz) I was super happy to hear Cut My Hair.

I talked briefly with the singer in Joes Field between Neko and Wilco. Noticea cut on his forehead but had no idea what happened as I was waiting for Low at the other stage. This festival has a LOT more people this year.

Who were the female singers?

i saw that all 3 day passes have sold out for the first time. curious to see if that translates to a considerably larger crowd as compared to the previous two.

woot! seriously, the rarities/covers show tonight is gonna be so fun.

probably more like catching gonorrhea.

it is. "Smooth Sailing" is the only dud on the record.

sweet! still bringing my camera rain sleeves and poncho, though.

part of me wants the Bruins to lose tonight so i don't miss the potential clincher on Saturday...

forecast calls for chance of storms on friday and sunday...no rain!

yeah, that's awesome news. i would love to see O'Rourke on stage again.

where'd you read that? last recent photo i saw of O'Rourke, he looked like he was well on his way to Howard Hughes-dom. Is he really gonna start making music again?

to be honest, it was pretty easy to avoid the pit. my wife watched w/ another friend on the side balcony a bit. i was upfront for the first three but was getting bashed in pretty good so i retreated to side stage. this guy nearly took me out twice...luckily i picked him up just quickly enough to duck my head and gear.

review and photos: http://www.prefixmag.com/photos/black-flag-good-for-you-ho-ag-the-middle-east-camb/#photo-1 i am gonna see Flag in Sept...no Ginn, but it's got Morris, Stevenson and Dez...

if anyone needs a hotel room, the Howard Johnson's in Williamstown has a room now. My wife just called to confirm our spot and the guy told he got a cancellation.

Hysterical!

funny, after digging around through the threads about how to get into a Living Room show, i found this quote from Speed Racer regarding LRS:

Wilbow or Merzco

is this Speed Racer you speak of camera-shy? just photoshop Samuel L Jackson over his/her face.

I'll PM Jeff and let you know.

off topic, but i read the funniest thing about Nick Lowe a few days ago...apparently after Bowie put out _Low_, Nick decided to put out a record:

Black Flag. never thought I'd be typing those words in 2013. and it could be a total disaster.
