Albert Tatlock Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Ta That mariachi band looks the business. I love a mariachi band. Probably would have enjoyed that more than Wilco these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fif1435 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I enjoyed the pictures and review. Thank you! um...they have a beer named "Wilc'ope"?!?!?!?!? Had I known that, my attendance decision might have changed! I'm sure it's delicious. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uncool2pillow Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Just saw an episode of The Book of Boba Fett that had Thundercat. Nice to see pix of him at the festival. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Finally had a chance to read, and I thought you did a good job capturing the general atmosphere of the event. As expected, some excellent photos all around. That one of Mavis and Jeff from the Beach stage is great! And thanks for the new nickname for Mr. Bull Black Nova; hope you don't mind if I use that moving forward. Just one note: Cut Your Hair was played at the all-request/all-covers set at Solid Sound in 2013, not 2015. On 1/26/2022 at 9:22 AM, Albert Tatlock said: Ta That mariachi band looks the business.

They weren't on stage for the opening toast as they were at the first SBS, I don't believe. Were they just roaming around randomly? Or perhaps playing at one of the heritage shows the day before or after the festival? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank YOU for the concern to retain my anonymity with the use of a pseudonym. Deep down I'm quite shy and reluctant to call attention to myself. And by "deep down" I really mean "not even a little bit". Cheers! Mince Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was hustling off for a dinner reservation so i don't know if/when/where they played. as you noted, certainly not at the opening toast. (btw, what was that opening ceremony? I couldn't really tell) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how to break this to you, but it appears you're not on the VIP events memo list any more? As for Mariachi > Wilco - I was listening to MA1 in its entirety the other day and began thinking how much I miss 'the rasp'. I guess age, giving up the fags, and the nose job (I use that in the loosest sense for comedy effect) have all been factors - but things like Hoodoo Voodoo sound so good there. I've just got a bit turned off by the glut of whispery vocalised dirge rock. As I've said before, hoping they brought back some jumping beans to liven up the next album - they did seem to take my advice (not that I fool myself they didn't think of it themselves) about giving more of a post-pandemic punch to their live shows. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
