For an old guy, I've been on the rail a lot -- to the point that I usually joke with the other, younger railbirds that "I'm not a Narc, honest." Wilco several times, Pavement, Morphine, Guided By Voices, Cracker, Steve Earle, Alejandro Escovedo, Jason Isbell (twice), Drive-By Truckers several times, Patterson Hood, Bob Mould (I have permanent hearing loss from that show), Grant Lee Buffalo, Matthew Sweet, Richard Thompson (several times) . . . I know I'm forgetting many. I've never had front row tickets -- only at GA shows.

^^^ Thanks.

^^^ I'm embarrassed to admit that I don't own any solo Brian Eno. I've got Another Green World and Here Come the Warm Jets on my "buy list." Does that sound right?
