HaikuWarriors41 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Just for everyone's reference, MMM is from 6:00-8:00 on Sunday night, and Wilco plays from 6:30 to 7:30, so assuming you want to see Wilco, you'll only be catching snippets of Mike's set. At least the Bud Light stage isn't too far from the Mindfield stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WilcoFan Posted July 21, 2006 Author Share Posted July 21, 2006 We're thinking of heading down to the Abbey Pub on Saturday night to see Lake Trout play. They are a band from our home town so we thought it would be cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
