yeah, all dancing around and stuff, I was really happy that he seemed so comfortable

ironic that's he's dancing around...getting older and all (and claiming he's an "old man" and of a bad back)
at the last show i went to, he kicked during "Famous Polka". i actually didn't see it from the angle i was at, but i saw a video of someone who went to the same concert on YouTube. yay internet!

sometimes a bad back is irrelevant. i know it's like that for me. i will endure any amount of pain i have to to enjoy a TMBG show. so what if i can't move the next day? there are worse things.

i noticed he didn't play his accordion as much as he has in past shows i've been to though...

amen to that after being on a bus for 12 hours I could barely move, I kinda had to lean on my dad after the show...but oh, it was worth it!

I can imagine why Linnell has a bad back, accordions are notorious for causing back pain, I can barely move after I have mine on for even a little while I couldn't imagine playing one for a living at least he plays a not-so-huge one nowadays

yeah. i'm sure that's probably why.

you probably wouldn't have felt so crappy if you weren't running on 0 sleep. did you sleep at all that weekend?

12 hours is a long haul, nomatter who's driving.

tell me about it! my dad kept telling me I should have slept, but I just couldn't it might have been because I was excited, over-caffienated, and not in a comfortable bed (we were to cheap to stay in a hotel)

did you sleep any on the way home?

next time we go to a show that far, i'm getting us a room. i don't care. it's too much to do in a day.

no I didn't sleep until Sunday evening talk about a crazy weekend!

shee-oosh! so you were up from Friday at 6 am till Sunday night? that's incredible!

well thank you I'm not really sure where that skill will come in handy though

next time?

yeah, but hopefully I'll be in the back of a nice comfy car next time

yeah.

just be glad you're young. that woulda killed an old geezer like me. i needs my naps.

Well, the Sacramento show was really good. I finally got to see the Confetti Cannon in action, which was nice. Also heard a bunch of songs I'd never heard played live before (Twistin, Mr. Me) - aside from the new ones, of course.

Most disappointing thing I didn't even realize until about two days later - no "We Live In a Dump" Shocked. Awed. Bummed.

But other than that, a great venue. I took some pictures that look generally crappy, and will try to put them up this weekend after I dress like Peter Pan tomorrow.

Peter Pan?

i'm glad you had fun! (except for the no We Live In A Dump thang)

a joke i heard in grade school....


why does Peter Pan fly?















if you got hit in the peter with a pan, you'd fly too.
