Music

Concert notes, set lists and personal impressions fill this category. From the dreamy Americana of Lord Huron to Coldplay’s stadium spectacle and intimate performances at the Dakota jazz club, I share what moved me in the moment.

Tammy and I saw Mumford & Sons for the second time tonight and for the second time they were incredible live. We like their music but there is something about the energy they bring on stage that is so powerful. The setlist was great. I loved the aesthetic and how they had it all setup. 🎶

Packed arena concert with a band performing on a curved lit stage, large neon floral backdrops, and a crowd filling the floor Concert stage with three performers, a large disco ball, glowing star decorations, dramatic lighting, and a packed arena crowd. Large indoor arena concert with a packed crowd, neon-lit stage decorations of stars and doves, and performers under bright spotlights. Concert stage with golden sparks raining down on performers in blue light before a packed arena crowd

John Prine had the answer to being “too online” before being online was even a thing.

Blow up your TV, throw away your paper,
Go to the country, build you a home,
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches,
Try and find Jesus, on your own.

Spanish Pipedream released in 1971.
