I was just at the Fillmore to see Built to Spill. It started off not so great; rarely do I attend concerts alone, and I was way up at the front, standing in one spot for a long time. And it felt like they hadn't performed in a while, because they were taking way too long between every song. Well, it turns out the tour is only 3 days old

oh, hai! wish i'd known you were there - we were about three rows of people back stage right. i totally loved the show, including third uncle, though it was the first time i've ever seen BTS. i didn't recognize most of the songs but loved it just the same. meat puppets were awesome too. they were my favorite band at one point in my life many years ago. i'm glad kris curtwood kicked his heroin addiction so they could come back and make music again. he was very entertaining to watch tonight.

Cool!

Yeah, Cris seemed very happy to be performing. It was fun to watch him.

Hmm. I had no idea The Meat Puppets were still touring. There you go.

Glad you had a good time.

Meat Puppets? Jesus. I haven't even thought that name in about twelve years.

wtf v-team. i used to think built to spill was kinda lame, but over the past 2 months i have really learned to love them for some reason. i would have happily accompanied you to the show.

Well, I'm going again tonight! If you're interested and can score a ticket, then we can meet up! :-)

and dude... how has everyone forgotten about the meat puppets? they seriously beefed up (haha) nirvana's 'unplugged' endeavor. was that really so long ago?

[sjp]

Well that was about 15 years ago now, but yes they seriously beefed up Nirvana's excellent unplugged work.

the meat puppets were my favorite band at one point. i still listen to them now.

last night i wondered how many folks in the audience thought "lake of fire" was a nirvana song.
