i will continue to vote. still a drag that if it wins, I'll miss an opportunity for "Say You'll Miss Me." also, this means that Newport is likely out, so i'll go from seeing Wilco three times this year to zero. oh well.

well, my streak of attending every Solid Sound will come to a close... bummer, as it's always a ton of fun and i'll miss seeing familiar faces. #onwardsto2019

i did the soundboard/release combo at Newport last year... using a $4K lens to compensate for the distance to the stage, i get stunning photos like this i'll stay home and watch the Celts instead. plus i still have to go through the Mastodon shots, and i am shooting Midnight Oil on Thurs and Meat Puppets/Mike Watt on Friday.

there was a chance i'd be there as his publicist asked me if i wanted to cover the show, until i asked if there was a photo release and if it was a soundboard shoot and both answers were yes.

these guys were great last night. bummer i got there 10 min late.

sweet!

saw Kikagaku Moyo last night at Great Scott. what a great show. a bunch of long-haired japanese psych rockers in the groove. electric sitar too! waiting to hear if i get approved for the Mastodon/Eagles of Death Metal/Russian Circles show tonight.

yes!

jealous. a friend of mine went to teh Chicago show and said it was better than the 2015 show.

maybe they'll end up playing whatever record is chosen Melvins-style. not heavy and slow, but the way the Melvins played their record _Houdini_ as part of ATP's Don't Look Back series. In typical fashion, Buzz screwed around w/ the setlist and didn't play the songs in the album tracking order. "Everyone's already heard that version a million times. i figured we'd do something new."

well said!

people don't even remember the Shadoks reissue, but the Guerssen reissue? now you're talking.

BT has the most songs; ergo, the sane choice.

(wrong jersey, but you take what you can find)

maybe i didn't see the thread, but no discussion on this? vote here (i bet Being There wins): http://solidsoundfestival.com/

interesting story, and i bet this would be of interest musically to some folks here. http://www.salon.com/2015/07/17/you_must_hear_this_the_new_tweedy_brothers/

new Samsara Blues Experiment is sounding awesome (soundcloud link at the bottom of the page) http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2017/05/04/samsara-blues-experiment-one-with-the-universe-review/

Trump's freelancing now? i really doubt they would play. can you imagine how horrible Plant would sound, trying to sing the old songs?

our man John w/ Eddie, Will Dailey and a few I don't know.

Enjoy, Moss!!

just going through the photos now... that was a pleasant surprise. this was my 3rd or 4th HSCM event i've been to, and by far the best musically. here's a shot of John w/ Hilken Mancini on the left.

thank you! hopefully you liked the reviews too
