Kinda thinking Prince would’ve been (is?) up here in the rafters grooving along to Khruangbin?

I see your Stevie Nicks, and raise you Belly.
(Wish I could’ve made both, though.)

Ok #DieSpitz, you win. Austin is still weird and cool and punk rock lives.

“I honestly feel like I’m at home here.” Jeff Tweedy is clearly having a blast being back at First Ave with his sons and friends in tow.

IMHO this is the modern Nashville act that should be playing 2 nights at US Bank Stadium, but I’ll gladly take one rowdy night at First Ave instead.

You know it’s no coincidence @rufus-wainwright.bsky.social sang O Canada to start the game and the Blue Jays opened with two HRs.

Looks like these prices are staying put.

Third time seeing @wolfalicefans.bsky.social and really they keep getting better. Sold-out crowd is way into this.

Jesse Welles at his most Dylanesque. Third act of the day. #farmaid40

Pro tip: The sandwich stand at Sea Salt might have the best menu of local Oktoberfest beers anywhere (plus a couple of the ol’ German brands).

If you’re out at the fair today I’ll be talking to Ber at the @startribune.bsky.social
stage at 3 ahead of her big gigs tonight and Mon at the Bandshell.

Linkin Park going full-steam-ahead with new singer Emily Armstrong.

Huge swath of heavily discounted shirts at the @twinsbaseball.bsky.social
State Fair tent, save for one player’s rack…

Turning into an all-time-great night at the MN State Fair with East LA’s finest.

Doesn’t look like my FOMO on the Somali Fries will be fixed tonight. Look at this line still.

Your St. Paul hockey arena is bathed in blood-red lighting as Boys Noize spins his opening set for NIN on the far end away from the main stage. He weaved in a little Prince just now.

Some Dolly and balloons for birthday girl @sierraferrell.bsky.social at Hinterland. If her set at Surly a night earlier was anywhere near as great as hers here, I’m thrilled for y’all.

A modern American classic even deep in the heart of it.

Shirley Manson took charge of this festival. Still an amazing force and a pretty stellar dresser, too. The new Garbage tunes had a lot of oomph, and the oldies hadn’t lost any of their impact. #MNYachtClub
