ESPN has been saying all week this is the best week / weekend of the year. Not sure I agree with that assessment but it should still be fun.

Yeah that Peach Fest lineup is crazy good!

Sure is. Just wish it wasn't such a journey from here.

Agree, don't know that it's the best necessarily but it further boils it down.

First game was fun. Looking forward to the later game today. I need both road teams to lose.

Prop bet. Pays well. 😉

Good afternoon!

Was out grooming off the driveway again after a couple of inches of fluffy snow. Seemed like overkill to fire up the snowblower.

Hey moid Snag and anyone else in Chicago. Lil' Ed is playing B.L.U.E.S. next Friday & Saturday. Only $10 cover. Smile

Unfortunately they must be on hard times. Cover was never that low on the weekend. 🙁

Putz, Steph and I went to Thalia Hall Friday to see Rebirth, and they sold the last ticket to the guy in front of us.

Instead, we went to Lagunitas, then caught Lil' Ed and Joanna Connor at Kingston Mines.

B.L.U.E.S. was closed for utility work.

The XTC Showtime documentary is highly recommended.

As are most of their albums. Cool

After several years away, happy to be going to New Orleans for French Quarter Fest in April!

Even happier I'm staying at a friend's relative's condo, so I only have to pay for airfare, food, and evening music.

REALLY want to go to Peachfest at Montage. Flights from Chicago to there are ridiculous. Plus I'm not packing a tent on a plane to camp. I have some months to work on a plan.

Lots of hotels with shuttles to the festival in the area

Personally, I like B.L.U.E.S. better. Smaller, more intimate. Just my preference.

Will have to check it out. Do they stay open as late? Also want to check out the green mill sometime.

No. Kingston has a 4:00 AM license. B.L.U.E.S. is 2:00 AM. On Saturdays they get an extra hour on top of that so you could stumble home as the sun is rising on a Sunday morning. I think a few of us did that after a Mule show years ago.

Probably the night I heard Soulshine three times. I think Chris Robinson opened the first show. Hell, he might as well have played it. Larry McCray did it twice as I recall.
