    I watched the first DC show on Youtube last night... it was great. 

    Josh referring to TVL as a goth Willy Wonka had me in stitches.

    Was a great show last night in Atlanta.  Had second to last row in balcony.  It was very hot up there.  Wish I could see them again on this tour.

    Saw them in Nashville last night. Very tight... Great show 

    I got lost art and better living which was unreal 

    Mosh pit formed during Song for the Dead. We were a few rows behind it. No major injuries that I saw but a few ladies got knocked down.

    Merch observation: They had a table outside the venue but I'm not sure when it opened. We did see a guy earlier in the day with a QOTSA shirt on that must have visited that booth as I saw the same shirt there. Inside merch booth had more stuff. Amazing to be able to buy a poster for that nights show but they also had posters from at least two other shows available. You definitely don't see that with PJ.

    I never knew that until I read Sing Backwards & Weep last summer.

    Lanegan tells a good story about Hommes tagging along w/ him when he was looking to score while on tour. Everyone thought JH was a narc because he looked too young & healthy to be looking for smack.

    You watch Guitar Moves yet? Matt Sweeney stars off with a lick from Give The Mule What he Wants.  Watch this soon though as they took down all the others and this might go too.

    Big insight on Josh's playing.

    Josh is underrated as a guitarist and a singer

    His vocal style took me so long to come around to, but once I got used to it, I love it. 

    His guitar licks are f'ing phenomenal.

    Dude he’s obviously a little drunk during that acoustic performance that I posted and he fuckin NAILS the vocals. I recommend watching the whole set

    Cancelling a festival appearance in Brazil based on doctor’s orders… hope it’s nothing serious.

    Seems tricky to shoot down to Brazil for a one-off then pick up more US shows a week later

    It sounds like they're baggin' it but you can never say you're baggin' it.

    Agreed, and it's not like they've cancelled any other shows.

    I had that thought too.  Hopefully okay though.  Gotta be tough being on the road this long when you've had your share of demons to battle.  
  • josevolutionjosevolution Posts: 27,544
    Yeah I’m sure they overlooked the logistics of traveling to Brazil for one show but at the same time they should of of realized it before agreeing to it!

    Obviously I'd feel terrible for suggesting it if someone is legit nursing something, but it happens.

    I was at Newport Folk Fest and Noah Kahan cancelled his set last minute due to vocal cords issues. Played headlining shows the next 2 nights in VT.

    Some December dates were announced for the southwest... thank goodness that's all... I don't want to miss any local shows, and my wallet needs a break.
