Upcoming/Recent Shows

Just back home from a very quick trip to CT to see Goose at Westville Music Bowl in New Haven. Great venue, especially for a jam band.
We had tix to see the National there last year (but covid) and undoubtedly would have queued for rail. Venue is small enough that seats in the lower bowl are great. Will def go back to see a show there - it’s just about 2 hours 40 mins from us (except when there is traffic on the CT turnpike like always)

Those were some HOT shows! Venue looks awesome, have seen a lot of cool photos from the run. So excited for this Goose tour, they're on to something really special.
 
For those who have been to Merriweather Post Pavillion: I'll be heading there in October for the first time! Do you recommend staying in DC, Baltimore, or near the venue?

First live show since March 2020. This was at my favorite small venue with a couple local bands.

Kiana & The Sun Kings. They are great! Kiana is an outstanding vocalist & The Sun Kings can really jam!

Hey, I was there! Just to the right of the stage! Fiona (the drummer) and Kiana are friends of mine. Good folks all of the sun kings.

Just grabbed a ticket for their EP show next weekend too!

I've actually never been there but a couple of my friends have - that looks cool! Like a smaller version of the Forest Hills Stadium. I think that's where they have that Tennis tournament in CT. A few of my friends are going to an upcoming Bright Eyes/Japanese Breakfast/Lucy Dacus show that I wish I could be there for.

Exactly. It reminded me of a smaller Forest Hills. I'm not sure if they still play tennis there (I know they used to play the Pilot Pen tourney there many years ago)

I'm still debating which Bright Eyes show to go to - do we want to trek up to New Haven, go out to Forest Hills or go to Bethlehem, PA (which is actually closest to us) Japanese Breakfast isn't on the bill, but she is playing 4 shows at one of my fave venues in Philly (Union Transfer) 3 have already sold out!
 
Lucy Dacus got me on the Maine announcement. I successfully avoided Boston due to show conflicts but that July show in a small Portland, ME venue with Laura Stevenson for $30 out the door was too good. I'm passing on so many former no brainer shows since everyone is touring, yeesh.

They were great. Unfortunately I'll miss their EP debut. Is it on vinyl? Will they sell it at any local record shops? I'll have to keep a lookout for it.
Cheers!
 
The past year, I've basically been a junkie in withdrawal as it pertains to live music. Now I'm that dude blowing his whole paycheck on a bag of the pure stuff

Sept 16: Modest Mouse @ the Mosaic (SF)
Oct 5th: Van Morrison @ OAT (SD)
Nov 15th: Caribou @ The Greek (LA)
Dec 9th: Courtney Barnett / Warpaint @ The ACE Hotel (LA)

Also, if anybody wants a hit and lives in So-Cal, I have a spare ticket to the Van Morrison show
 
God, I missed gigs. It was so great to be back watching live music. Although some things were weird (ordering drinks through an app, the plexiglass between me and my neighbours), the sheer blast of seeing great music played in person was as amazing as ever. The gig was by Siril Malmedal Hauge, a local jazz vocalist, who I dig despite not really liking jazz vocalists. The music had the odd bit of wig-out jazz and the odd bit of smoother stuff. Most of all, it just made me yearn for more gigs.

Rolling Stones have rescheduled their US tour dates!

Aaaaand of COURSE the Cleveland date was unable to be rescheduled - getting a refund a year+ later. Guess I'll try for Pittsburgh tickets now.
