Bryan Ferry last night - enjoyed hearing the old hits.  Didn't enjoy the upper balcony at the Lincoln.  The AC really didn't help cool things much.  Dripping sweat while seated.  Had to look between heads to see some of the stage.  And the lights from the back of the stage were blinding - probably not an issue if you had seats down below.

watch out PSB thread...   A rolling compendium of integers: a guide to whole numbers. is getting ready to over take you


Had a great time at the Case/Lang/Viers show last night
what a great combination of voices/personalities
the sound in the Lincoln was on point

KD's voice was amazing, had never been a fan, but she won me over last night
Her cover of Helpless  was jawdropping
and the group cover of Patti's "people have the power" was solid with all three of them doing different verses

all their originals on this album are soo good and they delivered them perfectly
Veirs was no slouch either

and of course Neko knocked it out of the park with Man (and Hold on Hold on)
She goes up 2-3 points in the hot quotient every time she straps on that guitar

and she even told me she 'love"s me...

truth be told...I didn't get them to sign this directly
was a part of a contest I won...so for all I know the merch girl, the sound guy and some panhandler signed this

I've only seen her once, at the original 930 in 87. $4 a head and maybe a hundred attended. Great show!

great great GREAT Marah show last night at Jammin Java.. I noticed IMP mentioned it in their weekly letter but I don't think they promoted it.

Anyways... great rock and roll show... they were fabulous last year but even better this year.... they played about two and a half hours... two long sets... they jammed on tables, by the merch table.. you name it.. the first set featured a ton of Serge Bielanko on harmonica... the written set list seems to include only like half the songs they played.. more of a guide... (I snagged a beer stained set list) at times it definitely felt incredibly Springsteen-ish...the songs, the performance, the length, the joy...

I picked up the Kids in Philly LP they "reissued" (never issued on vinyl before so is it really a reissue?) late last year.. what a quality package....includes a cd with a lot of bonus tracks... which was a nice surprise since I thought they would be download only..it also comes with the download code.. a fold out poster...

They're playing a show near Philly and another in NYC... I hope they come back.. they hung out after the show as they usually do...I read they were total dicks in their brief 5 minutes of fame but unless they underwent a total transformation i dont' see it... I doubt i saw them back then even though Sidehatch tried to get me into them....its funny, now I go to the reunion shows year after year and Sidehatch doesn't.

the audience was a strange mix.. a lot of older people...quite a few looking worse for the wear.. i guess life does that to you... quite a few kids...

so, I was asked, twice even, to go to the Dylan show at wolftrap.  I love the trap, so it was disappointing that I could not go . . . twice, even.  I heard he played the same set both nights.  ugh, really?  anybody go to let me know how it was / what I missed?  I have never heard of the opener, but have been schooled into knowing that she is excellent, even.

He's been playing the same set for 2.5 years.

Forgot to mention.. the Obama 55th Birthday Party was pretty amazing.. Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder.... felt lucky to be there...

[walk,on,by]

wow, even.
