And that was well before last year's mini inflation crisis (which some people still believe is happening because prices haven't deflated).
Apparently there is a joint record with Liam Gallagher and John Squire in the works to be released next year.. Liam has just declared it the best album since “Revolver”

As someone pointed out

"Joint" might be the operative word here

You know what's a good album? Sea of Cowards by Dead Weather. That's a good album.

Truth
I wish they'd tour again. Will probably see The Kills as a holdover.

I guess Olivia Jean may not appreciate that. Will also see her Tuesday.
Geezus they look so bad in that picture…

Rumblings of a Neil Young "Love Earth" tour next summer…
Q: Should I see Dylan Meyerhoff?? I have seen him in like 2004, at I think it was George Mason. My wife has never seen him and is aware of his current "sound".
Q2:I like a lot of his late-era work, how does he deliver live on it at this point?
Q3+: He's doing two nights, is one likely to be better than the other? Is he more likely to be less into a second night, or is it more of a situation that they'll have fully dialed in the sound on night two? (I'm really just trying to avoid an afternoon drive from College Park to Baltimore).
Meyerhoff Q: I assume they don't really have a large A/V setup thus, what sections are the best value for $$$?


I always think second nights tend to be better…..
dang, didn't know Shane MacGowan was hospitalised for encephalitis earlier this year and is still in bad shape
hope he pulls through

Q1-Yes,  expect him on piano for the most part.  Caution:  some folks aren't fans of his phrasing-I like it as long has he brings the energy.  He'll make one of his standards sound new!

Q2- He's playing 9 songs from the new record and then a smattering..Basically the same list every night i.e. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/bob-dylan/2023/capitol-theatre-port-chester-ny-43a1a30f.html. ; If you're a Grateful Dead fan, he's got three of their songs in the rotation.

Q3-Agree with Hutch^and Saturday works better for me.

Q3-approx. $2,500 capacity; any seat's a good one
