King Buffalo is playing in town tonight & Mike Watt is with Mike Baggetta & Stephen Hodges at a record store/part time venue down the street from my place. Decisions....

Saw Robyn Hitchcock last night in Santa Fe. He was ... as amazing as ever. Somehow, his playing has improved in his 60's; it was noticeably much more 'there' than in the past.

SITE Santa Fe had fancy Danish wooden chairs for 196; a good venue, if a bit antiseptic.

The song list avoided the trite whimsy and focused on the deeper material. Lots of people sniffling during "My Wife and My Dead Wife." The set was two hours; his harmonizing with his wife was lovely.

If you have a chance, go.

I saw him a few months back. All of this is true. His playing is great. Voice is in good form. Good set list. Groovy times.
 
OK, so after seeing some YT vids from earlier in the tour, I have done a 180 and decided to shoot down to DC to catch Muse tonight. Gonna be an outrageous, yet awesome show, and thankfully they aren’t foregoing their harder rocking stuff. Will report later.
 
Running list.

Colin James
Weird Al
Foreigner
Burton Cummings and Andre Philip Gagnon

I passed on Bad Company.

I’m on the No side of Yes/Asia/One of The Moody Blues/Palmer of ELP
That many bands in a 4 hour show? No.
My wife wants to go though.
 
Just found out that Trower will be here playing at the House of Blues on the 27th of this month. Sent feelers out and it looks like at least 2 and maybe 4 buddies are going with me.

Should be a good time, as that old man still tears it up at 74.

He played here not too long ago but it was at the club with some of the worst sound/acoustics in town so that was a pass for me
