One of them is Bob Mould's drummer, right?

I assumed the tag was adlibbed by them, or at least they'd written it (not nothing anything of their humor, just it came off that way).

I saw the same tour. The order of acts really should have been reversed.

"Sick Man of Europe" is surprisingly good.

I thought that was weird too. I guess technically he's kind of right, but I assume maybe he didn't know?

The first time I saw them was playing for free at a street fair in 2007. As I recall, they weren't allowed to play "He's A Whore" because it was supposed to be some family friendly affair.

Serious thought: Has there ever been a bad Cheap Trick song?

"No Direction Home" has been playing on Underground Garage. If you've missed it, check that one out.

At his age, one day could be the rest of his life.

Also, who plays Grand Rapids but skips Detroit?

No.

The first album is excellent, probably a better primer than any Greatest Hits compilation could be (even if that means leaving off "American Music."

They're apparently opening one down the street from my office in downtown Detroit. Somehow the possibility of a Mark Wahlberg sighting is enthralling for a large number of my coworkers.

And of course that Hitler also happened to publicly snub any athlete that wasn't German shows it was far less about race than it was nationality.

The moon really is beautiful, you know?

Damn Cubans getting free concerts while we Americans have to pay excessive fees.

"Agreed to" implies someone was asking for this.

Pearl Jam did this on several of their albums, but they were usually just throwaway jam sessions ("Hummus" off Yield probably being the best).

Got sucked in by the marketing ploy of the Farewell Tour once again, this time for the first night of what the Who are saying is definitely the last time ever probably and if not then certainly the next one is. Almost entirely a greatest hits, with the most glaring omissions being "Can't Explain" and "Substitute." …

The brainwashing thing really is played up in the sequel, but that was terrible, so the less it's acknowledged the better.
