    Was at the Lagoon last night and there was a very healthy amount of people to see let's play two. Overall, a good film! I don't think it will age well and I could have done without seeing of the song edits and cut off, but hopefully there will be some cool extras in the DVD and I walked away happy. :-)

    I've never seen this many people at a one night only screener for a band. 

    Target Field? Xcel? Something midwestern for 2018!!!

    it had been awhile since i had seen a movie at the lagoon; it was fun to see this there.  it seemed 'black' was the piss break song for many people.

    i thought clinch nailed it (or knocked it out of the park, if we want to keep up baseball references).  it captured the joy and sense of community/fandom that these types of shows bring, and with gleason and that john dude having their own moments showed how the band relates to and participates in the community that they helped create.

    how about seeing ron f'n coomer on the big screen, eh?

    How about some target field love! I remember hearing there was a standing offer out for the guys to play there.

    Lord knows we don't need another summer of Luke Bryan and Kenny Chesney. Yeash!

    Maybe its just me, but I'm over the epic baseball field concerts. Gimme a string of arena shows instead of one epic weekend.

    Minneapolis named a 'top 10 place to visit' in 2018... in the entire WORLD

    Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal released a 2018 travel guide with 10 "hot destinations for adventurous sophisticates, curious foodies, and deep-pocketed beach bums." 

    Here's the full WSJ item about the City of Lakes:

    "The twin city that gave the world Prince and Bob Dylan --and will host the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 4--is now luring curious foodies. In 2017, Minneapolis claimed 13 James Beard Award semifinalists. When Gavin Kaysen, chef/owner of the wildly popular Spoon &Stable (in a converted 1906 barn) opened his modern bistro Bellecour last spring, he booked 1,000 reservations in the first 24 hours. Other notable names to drop: Thomas Kim, who left Los Angeles to establish the Rabbit Hole, and Erik Anderson, who sharpened his knives at the Catbird Seat in Nashville and took over Minneapolis's Grande Cafe earlier this year."

    (Photo: Courtesy Captain Jack Sparrow)

    Age: 66

    Bio: Captain Jack grew up on a farm in Aitkin, Minnesota. He moved to Minneapolis in January of 1973.

    Education: He graduated from Aitkin High School in 1969, and then studied logic at the University of Minnesota. He also studied subjects related to sociobiology at the U of M and at the University of Texas at Austin.

    Work experience: Set up and managed several collective businesses including auto and motorcycle repair, home remodeling and demolition, restaurant equipment repair, lawn service and landscaping. He was also a maintenance coordinator at Seward Coop in 1973.

    Political and public experience: "In the mid 1970s I organized several intentional communities and co-housing projects of which many of the collective businesses mentioned above were affiliated. I was a member of the Student Mobilization Committee to end the war in Vietnam in 1971. I was involved with the Twin Cities Coop Movement in the early 1970s. I was an editor of the All Coop newsletter in 1974. I was the co-founder of People United for Economic Justice in the late 1980s and Up and Out of Poverty in the early 1990s. I was on the Board of Directors of the Minneapolis, the Minnesota and the National Coalitions for the Homeless. I organized Minneapolis Public Housing tenants during the 1990s. I was also a founding member of Occupy Homes, were I was active from 2011 to 2014."

    Main issues: Eliminating poverty, violence prevention, climate change and other environmental issues.

    Party: Independent

    Why he is running: "I want to begin a pilot program in Minneapolis for the Basic Income Guarantee, I want to get control of the police department to ensure that police officers respond in poor neighborhoods and neighborhoods made up predominantly of people of color as fast and as often as they do in richer, and predominantly White neighborhoods. I want to experiment with more car-free areas, like the Nicollet Mall, in the central city. I want to experiment with building some buildings underground to save on energy for heating and cooling."

    What you might not know about him: "I am an Agnostic, although I consider myself to be a pre-Constantinian Christian culturally."
