  1. A week late but saw Dweezil Zappa and his band in cinncy and boy howdy were they great! Hot Rats was superb
  2. Seeing them tomorrow night at the Ryman! Got a friend barely flying in in time to make it downtown. Do they start at the scheduled time or run a little late?
  3. Are they rocking "Misunderstood"? or is it still acoustic? Going to the Louisville show and hoping they kill it like the show opener I feel that it was written to be! Missed last years shows ( too much work) but really excited about the setlists so far this time out.
  4. Feels great to say this!... Wilco. Been a long year without.
  5. Just bought my ticket for the Columbus show and have been wondering just what do the boys have in store for us? Will they throw down with some box set rarities? I'm pulling for "Hotel Arizona"!
  6. Sturgill Simpson in Bowling Green.
  7. Stan Ridgway when in Wall of Voodoo "Mexican Radio". Stan still making beautiful music today.
  8. Beck at the Ryman last night. Terrific show!
  9. I have one seat available if your still looking? second row center balcony Can meet at the show PM for phone #
  10. Just got home from Drive By Truckers and Old 97's. Great show. They complimented each other very well. But the Truckers are a sonic guitar attack. First time show for me. Won't be the last. Both were fun to hear.
  11. Can Anyone tell me the song that played over the PA after the show before the fire works? Had to be Rod Stewart I would guess?? Been driving me nuts today trying to search his back catalog.
  12. Never said that Wilco's set was better Than MMJ's... but that I would have preferred to have seen Wilco get the longer slot. I did enjoy the show and I don't think I have ever seen a crowd more enthralled by a band in my life. It was really a sight. But I just couldn't help thinking that they were pushing it too far. How long was their set? 22 songs. Nearly three hours? They could have had 6 or 7 more songs in the set. They were into it though, being in front of the hometown crowd. I'd like to see them again but maybe cover a Television tune ( See No Evil ?) and a little less on the Wham!. Loo
  13. I would have to go with these. XTC - Drums and Wires Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights Bowie - Ziggy Stardust Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings and Food Jefferson Airplane - Surrealistic Pillow Love and Rockets - Seventh Dream of a Teenage Heaven The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Paul & Linda McCartney - Ram Squeeze - Argybargy Wilco - YHF No order. Just some of my perfect albums
  14. Just saw this show last week in Cincinnati and they were both great. Wishing I could drive down to Birmingham for their show next Saturday. Justin Townes Earle looks to be in fine form. We had a great time.
  15. Aimee Mann in Cincy. Saw JTE last week. Great show! You will have fun.
  16. Justin Townes Earle tonight in Cincinnati!
  17. Yeah Barfly maybe my favorite so far. Love Crazytown too.
  18. I also got to meet Andrew Bird at this show. I took my boys 16 and 10 and one of the older son's friends. We were kinda scoping out the back of the venue. I went to school at UK for a few years so I knew there wasn't a whole lot of places for them to hide. Sure enough he was out back hanging out with his band. I really didn't think to even ask for an autograph. I just complemented them on the new record and the tour. Told them that this was our fifth show this year. They seemed to like that. My son was smart enough to ask for a picture, while I just got a hand shake. Later he was playing Frisb
  19. Anybody listening to her new one? I think "Charmer" is terrific. Seeing her in November in Cincy.
  20. In NOLA and got recommended to catch the Stooges Brass Band. The Hi Ho Club in the by-water last night. Smoking hot show! Catch these guys if you get a chance. Still trying to catch my breath today.
  21. Heading down to NOLA next week end and was wondering if anyone had some good record store recommendations? Staying in the Treme. Three blocks north of the Quarter. If you are looking for accommodations try Airbnb online. Saved me lots of cash to spend on music and booze.
  22. Black Sea just never hit me as much as their other records. I don't think of it in terms of being a bad record. It has some classic songs on there but I always felt that it felt forced. Kinda like it was their attempt at making the "record company album". I was at a friends party one night when I had a liking for this girl there that I had just meet and we were talking and getting along when I just had to play that song that was ruling the day for me at the time. " No language in Our Lungs" Great song however I soon was to discover that she was a journalism major. End of conversation... I can
  23. I get that the systems broken and the lesser of two evils blah blah blah.... but most folks are missing the whole point of this election and that is that the next president will be seating maybe three Supreme Court Justices in the next term. They are going to decide the fate of this country over the next twenty years. If a GOP controlled President (they have already said so... We just need somebody to sign the laws!) gets this chance it will set us back 50 years. Goodbye individual hello corporate masters. I'm not thrilled with Obama but he has governed from the center and tried to do what wi
