Noah Kahan is back.  He still has issues. 

He's great.

[tower912]

Indeed.

Noah Kahan is back.  He still has issues. 

Those long winters in Vermont will do that to you if you don't take up something like skiing or snow boarding to pass the time.

Noah Kahan is back.  He still has issues. 

I don't know who that is, but my 15 y/o niece was posting about him on IG last night.

Three shows I have tickets for in the next few months:

Steven Wilson, JR
BJ Barnham (American Aquarium)
Barnes Courtney (acoustic tour)

Chelsea has won 3 straight and still only sits 5th in the PL table.  I understand why he's so morose.

Avett Bothers or AVVT/Patton?

I'm still hoping they will be at Summerfest - they have a show in Waukegan on June 20 and then nothing for the next couple weeks.

I'll probably be seeing Max McNown in April. He used to attend my buddy's basketball camps in Oregon. My buddy comped him as McNown's brother had cancer, and they did a fundraiser for him at the camp.

AVVT/Patton, super stoked. I've seen the a ton of times, one of my favorite bands for a bit now.

Wow, that is amazing. My wife really digs him. I actually bought the tickets without really knowing he is the opener! Apparently the show is Parker McCollum, but we will be there to see Max. We have had some real good luck over the years hearing an unknown/unknown ish opener, hoping this is the same.

Seeing Ed Sheeran in August (and excited Lukas Graham is opening for him). Signed up for Noah Kahan's St. Louis, Denver, and Boston presale tickets. Will probably shoot for St. Louis as it's easiest logistically, but the other two would be awesome. If St. Louis, it's just a couple weeks ahead of the Ed Sheeran concert.

Took my sons to see ES in Milwaukee back in the day, what a great show. He knows how to write a hook. And, from everything I've watched, I think NK at Fenway is likely the best show/s to date. That would be killer.

I saw Ed Sheeran in early 2012 on his first time playing in Chicago, I want to say at the Riviera.  I had been in London for the first time the year before, heard A-Team and Lego House everywhere and was hooked.

Saw him a few years ago at a stadium show and he's the exact same performer he was for 5% of the crowd size the first time I saw him.  He's really a remarkable talent who just "gets it" when it comes to playing live.

After originally showing only like 5 total when it came my turn to buy tickets at both Fenway and St. Louis I kept refreshing and ended up getting floor seats at both. Will probably sell the Fenway tickets, but it'd be awesome to see him there.

Very nice! I scored six for night one at Wrigley. Hoping to make it or send my son and his friends

Just got tickets to see Paul Simon in June. I saw him in Milwaukee in 1991, so I figured this will be a nice bookend for me (although that would be mid- and late-career for him). I think that if I had to choose, I'd say that Simon is my all-time favorite performer. I'd probably put two of "his" albums -- Graceland and the S&G Concert in Central Park into my top five. His most recent offering - Seven Psalms - was pretty heavy, reflective stuff, but not too surprising for someone his age contemplating where he's been and what might come next. But still shows his creativity and stellar acoustic guitar. My understanding is that he's playing that album in its entirety (just a bit over 30 minutes) and then plays more of what people know him for.

It'll be very different than the last time I saw him play, but I'm really looking forward to it.

I saw him in 2018 or 2019 at Pine Knob outside Detroit. I'm pretty sure it was labeled his final tour (aren't they all) and he was really good. I'm glad he's getting back out there and doing more shows

I saw him live at the 1991 Central Park Concert.

Both live concerts are great listens and I usually put on my listening list in the summer time.

Supposedly he had some pretty significant hearing loss that made it difficult for him to perform live, but they've figured out some fixes that have made him comfortable doing it. Who knows...like you said, a lot of artists have had multiple final tours. It's a pretty robust tour for someone his age -- with nearly 60 dates last year and another 40+ this year.
