A few weeks back, I picked up the double-disc of JFK. When mrs grateful opened the box, disc 1 was an, ahem, adult video, instead of the movie.

Buyer beware. Also, Diary of a Wimpy Kid could also be a porn title.

Geez, I was carded the week after my 50th and the bartender's eyes popped.
To be fair, you look fantastic.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2: Rodrick Rules only cements the pornographic possibilities.

Well, the latter for sure.

Show was okay but nothing memorable. Carl looks so old now and then I realized I’ve been seeing these guys for over a dozen years now. Even though it always seemed like Dan hated being there I still miss his contributions onstage.

What instrument did Dan play when he was in the band?

Show was ok, but the double live disc from Dead Man's Pop that I listened to on the drive is  100 times better.

Pretty crowd crushed. Sightline was ok, but my body just aches when I have to stand in one place. My club show life may be over. Didn't see any boardies that I recognized...

A tip for the age-challenged concert enthusiasts- try the upstairs rail.  My wife prefers it up there and I've grown accustomed to it's lure.

I thought Carl AND Neko both looked worse for wear last night.  Though it wasn't the best NP show I've seen, I take a decent NP show over a "great" one by many of the mediocre bands out there these days... their compositions are so well crafted! I agree, however,  Dan's presence adds another dimension to the band's sound. He was missed.

Really enjoyed Lady Lamb, the opener.

Sure, but don't you have to get there when doors open to get that spot? Then stand for 3 hours before the headliner plays one note?  That's like asking for a hip replacement!

Not necessarily.  Got there at 7:45 last night and nicely situated for opener at 8

If there's anything valuable I learned from RatBastard it is to call the box office a few days before the show and claim to have hurt your foot and ask if there is anything they can do for you, and they will -- without fail -- tape your name to one of the booths upstairs just behind the VIP balcony so that it is waiting for you when you arrive with zero questions asked.

the wrnr/new pornos event at rams head in annapolis was too short but was fun. they played: stairs, higher beams (2 from the new record) slow descent, whiteout, adventures. Carl sounds better (to me) not having to fight over the band in the rock music club.
