Let It Be, my all time favorite album.
Agreed.
Whos going? I am. So everyone in minneapolis should go.
I’m definatly going, me and my friends are making a whole day out of it, we’re going to the old Oarfolkjokeopus, seeing the Twin Tone building and visiting the Stinson House as well!
Good to hear
Dan Wilson singing Answering Machine for the win.
Which song did Gospel Gossip cover? They are fantastic and not at all like the ‘Mats, so I’m curious.
From what I remember, they did a pretty cool and trippy Left Of The Dial… and an inventive, but kind of messed up Here Comes A Regular. Their singer also joined the Let It Be band for Sixteen Blue, which was good but suffered from not knowing it all that well.
High On Stress’ set was a high point. Nowhere Is My Home and Bastards Of Young were excellent. I will go see those guys again.
Just remembered, Gospel Gossip also did a pretty cool Don’t Get Married. I think that was them.
It was an awsome tribute, but all it did was make me depressed that I’ll never see the Mats, or (the way its lookin) Westerberg. However, Curtis A doing ‘Favorite Thing’ was my high point of the evening.
OT but … wolfdog, can you do a mix of westerberg’s “Wonderful Copenhagen” in time for the big international thingy? Mixed with what is the question.
