Wet Leg and Boy George & Culture Club we’re added to the Sea.Hear.Now lineup. I don’t know how I feel about this.

The vids I watched of RATM at Alpine were awesome.

I'm watching the Alpine gig now while working. I'd give my left nut to go to a Rage concert

yeah, i'm looking forward to it. i'm sure there will be an overabundance of upper-middle-class, mid-40's white dudes at the show. not the crowd they played to 25 years ago.

Probably precisely the crowd they played before 25 years ago, only they too are 25 years older.

Dave Matthews Band Friday and Saturday in Camden. Finally.

Just wrapped up day 2 of pitchfork.

Three things:

1. The new National songs are decent - the Haversham one is AWESOME though.

2. Japanese Breakfast tonight was perfect. She just is always so appreciative of the fans. And Jeff Tweedy came out to play Jesus, etc with the band.

3. Mitski f’n ruled. She was sooooo good.

Im actually thinking of seeing Mitski when she plays here.

My youngest son and I are going on a rock n roll road trip tomorrow.

Aug 10 - Buffalo - Def Leppard/Crue/Poison/Joan Jett
Aug 11 - Buffalo - Metallica
Aug 12 or 13 - not a show, but visiting the Rock Hall
Aug 14 - Pittsburgh - Metallica

I saw Def Leppard once 20 years ago. It was a festival. I didn’t care at all. Really looking forward to Hysteria and Love Bites now. Saw the Crue several years ago. Ugh. Saw Poison in a club and Ratt opened for them. Ratt was awesome. Joan Jett I haven’t officially seen, tho she did join the foo fighters at De Luna in 2012 for a song or two.

Metallica I saw with a friend on the Death Magnetic tour. I wasn’t a big fan then but loved All Nightmare Long and thought I should see them once. My son plays guitar and is obsessed with them. I am so fucking excited to be able to take him to see them. Hopefully this is a seminal moment in both of our lives.

Fuck yeah!

That’s awesome. I don’t think “my bands” will be around by the time my kids are teenagers.

Decemberists tomorrow night (12th time live)!

Then Jason Isbell next Friday (first time live).

Then Pearl Jam later in September (10th time live; first ever festival).

Got an Aussie rock fix:

Spy Vs Spy
Screaming Jets
Goanna
Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever
Nick Cave + Warren Ellis

Plan revised:

9/11 - Pearl Jam
9/17 - Sea.Hear.Now Day One (Dogs in a Pile, Celisse, Billy Strings, Gary Clark Jr., My Morning Jacket, Stevie Nicks)
11/11 - Trouble No More (Allman Brothers tribute)
March/April 2023: Bruce Springsteen (holding 2 shows at the moment, may try to sell off one eventually)

Considering at the moment: Get the Led Out on 11/5; minuscule chance at Phil Lesh and Friends 10/14 or 15.

Few things coming up in November:

Surprise Chef w/ Glass Beams
Ride
