Annnnnd sold.

Howdy. I just pulled some pits for this show, so I'm selling my pair of 300s. Face was a little less than a hundred bucks. PM a brother with an offer. No credit? No problem!

Um...bump?

I'm inclined to agree with Booche. As long as tickets are available online, the scalpers will always be one step ahead. It's nice to see this getting some attention, but I don't see how anything can change.

As my fortune cookie once said, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

You can't turn off this kind of genius.

It's just a heading on their website, which I found odd. I guess this way they can't have promoters saying "Well I never got it."

Rockfest just announced its 2017 lineup. Dee Snider is playing. Maybe it wasn't so bad after all.

Beat me to it. I read about these guys for the first time today and noticed a Jazzfest-sized hole in their schedule. Fingers crossed. Related: for people who are interested in this kind of thing (I certainly am) their rider is publicly available on their website. Nothing too crazy, but I was surprised to see that Medeski doesn't travel with any of his own keyboards (at least not for this group) and DeJohnette only travels with his own cymbals.

Reminiscent of this:

So great! Love the "future of rock and roll" quote at the end.

Heartbreaking setlist from Tedeschi Trucks Band last night: 1/ 25/2017: Peabody Opera House, St. Louis MO Statesboro Blues Don't Know What it Means Keep on Growing Isn't It a Pity Laugh About It Sky Is Crying Ali Let Me Get By Don't Think Twice It's Alright Leaving' Trunk / Vol Slavery I Wish I Knew How Blue Can You Get In Memory of Elizabeth Reed Let's Go Get Stoned

Ba BAM!

I just learned that Colin Cripps joined Blue Rodeo a few years ago, on account of Keelor not being able to play electric anymore due to ear issues. I'd be interested to see them with him in the mix, as I've enjoyed pretty much everything I've ever heard him do (even before I knew it was him doing it).

Kind of a cool idea. I guess that makes this a 20+ year undertaking. It will be interesting to see how the format of the re-releases evolves, as I can't imagine that it will stay static just for the sake of consistency over the life of the project.

Personally this lineup does nothing for me. But I'm sure tens of thousands of people will have a hell of a time, so good on them. I went in '03 and '04 and enjoyed it, but I don't see myself making the trek back anytime soon.

Much love and merriment, ya filthy wooks.

Too long; didn't watch.

Dead & Company definitely appeals, although from what I've heard I would almost be more inclined to travel for JRAD.

I almost went to Irene's to see this show tomorrow night, which would have made me really, really early. Even by BradM standards.

Thanks, pal. I'm glad it resonated.

This is what I said on Facebook last night. It's all I got: Let us not forget this: each of us can still choose to embody love, hope, tolerance, and compassion. And nobody has ever needed the president's permission to reach out to someone in need. All those things we tried to do to make the world a little better yesterday we can still do tomorrow, albeit through clouds of disappointment and uncertainty. Much love, my friends. Let's keep on keepin' on.

Nice!

Right on! This came out when I was deep into the scene out East. Plenty of familiar faces. And also the origin of "wook #17," which I heard Greg felt terrible about.

So great, and undeniably well deserved.
