very excited for this i'll have to go to the windsor show.

what did it say on the guitar that was smashed?

ticketmaster has detroit majestic theater 5-5-7 listed if anyone is interested.

If they are smart they won't have Zumaya closing games. Picking up Mesa was a terrible idea, because now they have two mediocre relievers (Jones, Mesa) fighting for the 9th inning spot. Neither of those guys should be used in any situation but the 9th inning with a 3 run lead. Zumaya is just so much better than either of them, but I fear for you guys that he's gonna end up the closer and Jones and Mesa will start giving up runs in the 7th/8th instead of the 9th.

completely agree with you on this. Jones made me nervous his first go around with the tigers, with that said he is the teams all time saves leader. definitly feel that the al central will be the toughest division, but will go with hometown bias and say the tigers win the division.

After last year's fantastic show in London, Ontario, I sincerely hope they return for another. And how about one in Detroit rather than out the burbs and school towns I can't really make it too without taking time off of work. Ann Arbor? Pass it this year. Instead do a couple (wishful thinking) right downtown at the State Theater. That would rock!

it would be great if they played the state theater. i was also at the london show and it was great.

what a send off .

they're a ton of fun live

 

and yes, Fun Blame Monster is just as good imo

seconded

Andrew will be touring with Twin Cities musicians Martin Dosh (Drums, Keyboards, etc.) and Jeremy Ylvisaker (Guitar, Bass, etc.)

you think so?

 

i guess it's just that the only band in that lineup that i have never seen that would really want to, is The Police.

rest are bands that i've seen (most multiple times), and will likely see over the next year.

 

it's about 1/8th as great as that early leaked/rumored lineup, which is even less of the bands from that list that i expected.

agreed. i'm not overly impressed with this lineup. kind of glad now i don't have to hate my friend for having his wedding that weekend.

Yep. I remember the mad scramble to find out if the show was cancelled or not. And then of course during the show Iggy demanded all the lights be turned off so he could yell about the power outage for a bit. That was awesome. Oh man, I wanna see them again so badly. Hopefully a Chicago date, but if not I very well could go back to Detroit to see them.

we drove out to toronto the next day for radiohead. they said the show was going to go on since the power was back on but no dice.

That weekend we saw them three times: Stubb's on Saturday night, ACL Festival on Sunday night, ACL taping on Monday night. It was an awesome weekend.

That stubbs show was one of my favorite wilco shows i'e been to.

Good point. I think that Pine Knob show was in 2003.

yeah it was scheduled for the date of the great 03 black out

Saw them at pine knob with sonic youth a couple years ago and thought it was a great show. Interesting choice of venue for the Detroit show.

Much better than I expected - Ray Winstone was great as the Captain. I hope Nick Cave gives up on this Grinderman band and starts writing more screenplays.

One of my favorite films of last year

also, the headliner one day is most likely Radiohead

that is even more exciting

here local band the hrd lessons

ACL is my favorite festival i have been to and i hope this is true because i will be going back

One Big Holiday

Lay Low

went and saw smokin aces. mindless entertainment. worth a rental or an addition to the queue.

watched it last week and found it incredibly disturbing. enjoyed the Bush cardboard cutout.

I really like it. Was not sure at first but it is growing on me.

Why oh why couldn't this be on a weekend?!?! That's going to be an awesome show, I bet.

i know i'm going to be in north carolina the 11-15 i was hoping that my morning jacket would be also

that is very impressive.

Watched this last night and it scared the hell out of me.
