I was there! Love Courtney. Great rocking show. Nice to see you brought your son. My son turned me onto her when Avant Gardner was getting lots of play. Hope you both enjoyed.

Sad news indeed. I got the impression from Hood's post that his passing was a surprise.

I had a fantastic time, yesterday's Isbell>Wilco 1-2 punch to close it out was perfect. Wilco delivered the goods with this about 100 minute festival set. I thought they were right on from the first second until the last. When they started Spiders at 7:55 I was wondering how the heck are they going to do this in 5 minutes, expecting a very abbreviated version. But they just blew past the 8:00 line. Always love being with music friends who are seeing Wilco for the first time. There were several yesterday, and let's just say they are not missing any more Wilco shows.

I will be on Martha's Vineyard for Beach Road, but I have extreme FOMO about missing this one.

Watched the first two episodes so far. VC in the first, haven't heard any more Wilco yet. I agree, excellent series. The chef was my favorite character in Shameless. Definitely give this a strong recommendation, even without Wilco in the soundtrack.

This is freaking amazing to me. I would seriously consider the trip from Boston except I'll be on Martha's Vineyard for Beach Road (WIlco on Sunday).

I couldn't attend in 2019, so I don't know if this was new this year, Broccoli Man was a great addition to the food court!

Memorial Day weekend is tough, I missed a wedding for Solid Sound. But ultimately I really liked having SS on a holiday weekend as it gave me the ability for the first time to stay Sunday night and spend a beautiful Monday without worrying about work.

Nels set an incredibly high bar for this song at the Hunter Center with Jeff last year.

Steve Hyden is usually on the mark, and I agree, he is here as well.

We spent parts of Friday and Saturday hiding from the rain, and all-day Sunday hiding from the sun! It was blazing.

This!

I was there and wasn't annoyed at all. I'm loving CC, and liked hearing what songs they chose to incorporate in a Wilco show.

Yes, looking at the lightning bolts in tonight's forecast at this point I'll settle for just rain.

From the Pitchfork article: "As the title implies, the album finds Wilco embracing the genre of country music."

I'm confused about that. I will definitely want some physical version of the album. I don't want to have to pay twice. There should be some sort of credit if you purchase the pre-sale digital download but there is nothing to that effect on the website

Drive-By Truckers

Well this is incredibly exciting news!
