So I decided to stay up late . . . after having to be up at midnight after collecting my wife from the airport. That was lovely - though missed the beginning. Just caught the end of an excellent Lake Street Dive too. Will just see Emmylou grace the stage then sleep. The start of TWEEDY and the rest of Emmylou for breakfast. Liking Jim Elkington too. Nice to have a Brit on board, and will definitely have improved things when I talk to JT about cricket and suchlike. Edit - Boo, no Emmylou.

I watched Dave and Gillian yesterday and this link still works. They start around 5 hours 20 in. Steve Earle after too. http://www.hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/2014/webcast/sat-banjo.html You can substitute sat for sun in todays current link to see Mavis too. Not sure how long they will bw available but I hope to see TWEEDY and Emmylou for breakfast tomorrow.

Such joyous music. Enjoying Laurie Lewis now.

Enjoying the Bluegrass on stream right now. http://www.hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/2014/webcast/sun-banjo.html Still not confirmed if TWEEDY will be streaming but they have not definitely said no yet. Looking to see some familiar faces in the crowd too

More photos than you can shake a stick at. http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/gallery?Site=BN&Date=20141002&Category=PHOTOGALLERIES&ArtNo=100209996&Ref=PH

Everyone can watch it here:- http://www.hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/2014/webcast/fri-arrow.html Each artist gets to decide if they want to be included or not. The Aquabats said no (Boo!). Ryan Adams said no. Lucinda Williams said yes. No details of who said yes/no for the rest of the weekend. Everyone used to get pro filmed just for Warren's home videos, but that's been expanded out to the public more recently.

I hope TWEEDY are practising today, 'cos they've got a hard act to follow :-)

You too can now learn to sing the Welsh national anthem. https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/gwlad-gwlad!-national-anthem/id908469898?mt=8 http://www.llgc.org.uk/services/media-business/press-releases/gwlad-gwlad/

The weather forcast looks fabulous. I caught a good year when I was there many moons ago, but by 7pm there was a chill in the air, and it was definitely a bit nippy at 3am on the Sunday. Looks like no such problems this year. Dead jealous. (We've been having an Indian summer here too. Still in t-shirts.)

First episode of the new series last night. Very stylish. Like a 1920s Sin City, but better all round. Excellent soundtrack for Nick Cave/White Stripes/PJ Harvey fans.

Out of interest, looked at the Amazon.com site:- Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #49 in Music #1 in Music > Alternative Rock > Indie & Lo-Fi > Indie Rock #1 in Music > Indie Music > Rock > General #21 in Music > Rock

Couple of shots I had not seen before. One for the crotch addicts.

Very short Q&A in advance of the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. Highlight: 'I always wanted to use a sticker that says, “It makes me want to kill myself. But in a good way.”' There's little need to read the atricle once you've read that. http://www.sfgate.com/music/popquiz/article/Pop-Quiz-Jeff-Tweedy-5778917.php?cmpid=hp-hc-entertainment

Something we knew already:- "Wilco's Jeff Tweedy Dislikes the Term 'Dad Rock'" http://www.spin.com/articles/jeff-tweedy-spencer-dad-rock-wilco/ Also, a bit more JT and Spencer http://www.esquire.com/blogs/culture/jeff-tweedy-interview

That first split second of JT deadpan in the sidecar cracked me up.

Really don't know where to start there - superb!

HazelThey cought (sic) you in the soil safe beneath the swarm Edit - CD version if it makes a difference. Makes me feel a bit less discriminated against by the vinlysts :-)
