Anthem? Really hoping its not Wolf Trap…

No idea

It makes me sad that Wilco has become this wildly popular, expensive to see even in a larger venue live act in spite of not releasing a good album since 2011.

I would root for a different opener, and for Wolftrap over Anthem. Though I probably wouldn't go anyway.

So it makes you happy Old 97s play the 930 if that??

Yes, it's a great venue and the price is always reasonable. And the band has made a living off of it for over 30 years.

Rhett Miller:

Aw now you just do it cause it's what you do
They throw underwear instead of money at you
Now I've made a living out of shaking my ass
And if you offer me an office, I'd have to pass
But our jobs are all jobs, and sometimes they suck
I love what I do, and I've had pretty good luck


Ken Bethea (2022):

I just couldn't see past that. The next thing I knew, I was out of college, and working for the defense industry, and eating shit. Man, I hated that job. I hated my life. I didn't hate my life, I just hated my job. So, with the band, that has been my life ever since, and I was 30 when we started the band. So, I was a 30-year-old man who had not once, outside of high school football, had had the spotlight on me, and suddenly, it's been that way for 25 years, autographs, and all this stuff. Being onstage, and TV shows, and we haven't had to have jobs. We still make pretty good money doing it, so it's incredible. It's a dream come true.

last part of the headline made me chuckle in a dark way

Music Mogul Irving Azoff Sets Jan. 30th for Fire Aid Mega Concert in LA: Eagles, Harry Styles, Earth Wind & Fire Possible

so Irv has inspired me to come up with my own festival

Earth, Wind and Fire headline of course, excellent choice Irv
Arcade Fire
Flaming lips
The Sparks
Flaming Groovies
Burning Spear

Might end with a billy joel sing a long of we didn't light the fire

I get not returning to a venue, maybe even a city, but a massive metro region
What did the DMV do?

Could be a political stance
