I saw the Head and the Heart open for Dr. Dog and they were awesome.  Didn't like their album so much but their live show kills

I'm exhausted just from reading that.  Impressive, Lady!

[ALady]

It keeps me out of trouble   ;)

Woody, I just caught the last five or six songs of I&W - the band was tiiiiiight and sounded great!  I hadn't seen him with this lineup and I was digging on the horn section hardcore! 

He finished with an a cappella version of "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" and the whole lawn sang along...and it was packed....wowser moment   :)

[woodnymph]

Ahhhh that sounds awesome!! What a sick venue!!!  Glad you got to catch it!

August is setting itself on fire, apparently...  A Perfect Circle is playing Stage AE August 9, the DAY BEFORE MMJ!!!  And my friend Kara and I love them, and she just surprised me with it as a birthday treat for when I visit! :-D!  I've never seen them live yet (though I've seen Tool a few times)  So I'm really excited, and I'll be pumped for whatever they play, but I hope to get some gems from Mer De Noms!

Work down here has just OK'd me to take August 7 - August 21 off, so I'm headin' home for a bit for another birthday week full of MMJ!  Last year was Outside Lands, and this year Pitt & MPP I can't waittt!!!  :D

Awesome Woody.  I can't wait to hear how APC still is.  I've seen them a couple of times, but it has been yearrrrrs.  I remember being really surprised with how different MJK is with them than he is with Tool.  Much more upfront and talkative ( i mean relatively speaking, it is Maynard after all).  :P

Hey, whoa, you're taking that much time off in August and you're not making the trip to Red Rocks?! What the what, girl? JacketfestWest needs a woodnymph  ;)

[Penny Lane]

6/10 Live Stream MMJ at the ROOOOOOO!   
6/11  Drive-by Truckers at the Wellmont (with Headhunter and the MRS H)
6/12  Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears at Maxwells, Hoboken

Nice weekend!

[kotchishm]

CULTS tomorrow at Rock n Roll Hotel....haven't been more excited for a show in a long time.

[woodnymph]

Jon, I was so close to seeing them when they played near Pitt at the BeaverDome in '01... but I was only 16 and didn't have any vehicle yet or my license for that matter!  I was so miffed cause my neighbor (who I'd been close friends with since toddler-hood!) was going to college at Penn State Beaver campus and was already so close, so he couldn't drive me  :embarassed:

But!! Now is the time!!  I'll have a full review when it goes down!!

(*Avoids Crispy's inquiry briefly.... head down... tail between legs......*)  :embarassed:

*ahem*

Ok, I'm ready to respond now.... it's tough. SO TOUGH. Not to go to JacketFest West!!!  But! I'm trying to save the funds for my Hawaiian dream!!  (I even have the Hawaiian Pandora station on right now hahahahahahaha cheese factor +2 pts)

I am however, currently accepting sponsorships!  :P  I offer, in return for a JacketFest West sponsorship, a future place to stay on the beautiful utopian island of Hawaii!!!  Where you too can swim in the crystal waters beneath waterfalls, pluck luscious fruit off of the trees, relax in natural hot springs, listen to MMJ on the enchanting beaches, and many more not-to-be-missed experiences! Just think! With enough sponsors, I could coordinate a JacketFest MoreWest gathering and invoke the powers of Pele during such songs as Dondante, Steam Engine, Phone Went (More) West, and Victory Dance!!

Just something to consider, everyone!  :P  I am exceedingly thrilled to make it to MPP though!! And I've absolutely loved everyone's reviews of their amazing Mt. Jam experiences!!!  Can't wait to catch everyone at Merriweather!! :-D

[Sidus]

Twilight Singers tomorrow! Will be my first Greg Dulli experience  :D. Their new album is as good as always. Wonder if they also play some other work of Dulli. Secretly I'm also hoping Mark Lanegan will make a guest performance, but I guess that's asking too much haha ;)

The Twilight Singers Perform "On the Corner"

[foomex]

I'm up for some Interpo next saturday. Cannot wait for it. I love them.

[ALady]

So mad at myself for missing that Twilight Singers show.  Have a great time, Sidus!   

[YouAre_GivenToFly]

Considering getting a ticket to the Iron and Wine show on September 10 in Seattle. I'll be in Seattle that weekend, but my flight leaves at 11:45 that night... so I'd have to change flights and get a hotel for the night.  :-\

Welllll it might be a little extra planning there...... but I'm in favor of that move most definitely  :)

Bought my concert ticket! Now just have to reschedule my flight and add a night to my hotel reservation. Not thrilled about flying across the country on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, but I'm sure everything will be fine.

[ManNamedTruth]

So instead of forking over $110 for a Pixies ticket , money for a hotel, and 10 hours total of driving time, I can at least see Frank Black solo for $22 in Pittsburgh in one of the smallest venues I've been to. Only problem is I'm not familiar with his solo stuff and the show is coming soon - July 22.

7/30 - Furthur - St. Augustine Fl.
