Wilco doing Yo Lo Tengo?  Does it get any worse than that?  As for Dylan if he did covers they would most likely be way worse than the original artist.  Dylan's only strength is his songwriting. I guess since Wilco haven't written anything worthy of listening to it makes sense for them do an all covers set.

Actually, Yo La Tengo joined them for that song nimrod.

Wow the two worst bands of all time on the stage together.

Great minds think alike

Run The Jewels was one long, awesome show. Kool A.D. was pretty spotty though. Should have tried to get Das Racist instead. Don't they owe our area a show? From the start of eXquire to the final bars of "A Christmas Fucking Miracle" that room was electric.

Hey Yada, is my 2011 list still giving you a chuckle?

James, I still get a good chuckle out of your top 20 2011 list. It fits a middle aged white dude to a T!!

[James Ford]

We saw the first two acts at the Rosslyn Jazz Fest on Saturday....the Kenny Rittenhouse Septet and Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens. Both very good.

My daughter remarked that "Black people sure do like concerts!"...more a reaction to the performers than the mixed crowd, I'm pretty sure.

How many of those are you still listening to?

 

[James Ford]

On average, I listen to about two albums a day. And I probably listen to music from the last 80 years. Which doesn't leave room for me to listen to any album with any regularity. But I'd happily listen to any of them on that list.

That said, within the last year I've probably listened to all of 1-11 and two or three of the others.

How many of those are you still listening to?

My husband loved Savages last night.  I am sad I could not be in two places at the same time!

i feel like we are always post show bantering about the same shows.

it was good.  holy shit their drummer is good.

my only complaint, because i always have a complaint, is this a band with one album, bringing nothing new to the scene, and having very little connection with their crowd.  drop the pretentious act.  don't make demands from your audience and don't wait 5 minutes to come out for an encore.

They don't usually perform encores.
