This Saturday I was in Brooklyn to catch Peter Hook and the Light. They played a solid 2.5 hours. First set 1 hour (did all of the New Order album Get Ready, which to me was not the main draw), took about a 12-15 minute break and then played 1.5 hours from the Joy Division and New Order catalog. He had another bass player on stage I guess to free him up to sing and not think about playing and singing at the same time. Good show. At the end of the show he took his shirt off (it was the same as one of the concert designs they were selling) and handed it to someone in the audience.
Next up for me (as far as I know) is Sugar at Union Transfer in Philly.

Man, I've been wanting to see Sturgill for a while now, just haven't had the scheduling line up in my favor. Based on all the clips I seen/heard, he's killer.

This weekend was the AC/DC and Pretty Reckless show at Notre Dame!
Taylor and the band sounded great. She said they were filming a video so I’m going to watch for this ND Jersey she was wearing.
I’ve seen Angus and the guys multiple times in their hey day… there were some clams and Brian’s voice was pretty ragged as the show went on, but mad respect for them still doing this in their 70’s!

That was my third time seeing him. That whole band is just fearsome. Sturgill is a great player in his own right, but Laur Joamets is something else. And they weave together as well as anyone I've ever seen.

Samantha Fish randomly announced a tour this morning and she’s playing in town. I bought tickets without even look at the date—it’s next Friday. My husband will be out of town so I’ll have to convince The Boy to come.
Speaking of The Boy, I bought meet-and-greet VIP passes for Wargasm next month. VIPs get some special merch, including an enameled lighter and matching cigarette case. I’m going to take them away until he graduates high school because otherwise I’m going to get a very angry phone call from a principal.

RUSH in Montreal. Both nights.
First night section 114.
Second night VIP front row.
This is us in the circle.
Played the pinball machine in the Xanadu Lounge. Good grub too.
Signed the banner for the band.

And we found some good food and toured a bit of the city.
And we brought 8 packs of Montreal smoked meat and 2 dozen bagels home. LOL.

They are having a blast and it shows. They smile sooooo much on stage.

I bought tickets to Rush in Chicago and Tampa about a year ago. Already went to the Chicago show. I’m looking forward to the Tampa show in November. A few weeks ago they announced the date in St. Louis. I think I’m gonna skipthe StL show.
I’ve caught Rush several times twice on the same tour, but never three times. Maybe they’ll tour again in a few years.

Stevie Wonder doing a 50th Anniversary of Songs int he Key of Life tour. Tickets going on sale tomorrow, gonna snag a pair me thinks.
Saw him in MD in 2024 and he was great. Wasn't expecting another tour so soon(ish), but he just dropped the dates yesterday. Gonna hit Cap 1 Arena.

Total fail...was 17K+ in the queue, sold out well before I got in.
Strange that his 2024 tour was accessible at a smaller venue (CFG Arena in Baltimore), but DC sold out immediately. The tickets seemed to have a range of $200 - 700 and the "cheap seats" would have been a stretch for my usual budget. That said, it's Stevie Fucking Wonder. I'd've gone in the $250 range per ticket if I had the option. Maybe he'll add more dates?

Very eager for the Avetts 2-fer at Wolf Trap next weekend.
The only thing officially on the books after that is Rush on 10/27 at Cap 1 in DC. Tryna get a ticket for 10/25 too, but we'll see.
The Robert Cray Band is at the Birchmere this Tuesday, while Steve Winwood and John Fogerty are co-headlining at Wolf Trap...hmmm...
