Thanks, Tom. I’m going to try and catch them at the Vienna Festival.

I saw Low for the first time at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago last December. They were terrific. Thanks for this report.

Europe, east coast, whatever!

Poor Susan. I thought of you when I heard that Low’s West Coast dates were postponed.

Actually, they’re opening for Wilco on the East Coast leg of their U.S. tour. If things work out I’ll be going to the show in June in New Jersey. I had to go to this Low show, though, because I expect that there will be chatter during their performance at the Wilco show, plus the venue will be much bigger.

Thanks for this Tom! Their LA dates in June were cancelled because they’re going to be opening for Wilco in Europe. They’re supposed to reschedule for Sept.

I’d heard they were doing the standard live versions of those songs. I’m glad but also disappointed. I’d be interested to see how they would have reproduced some of those sounds live!

This was my first exposure to Lonely, Dear. I really liked several of the songs. There were a few real hooky pop gems.

How’d you like Loney, Dear? He’s pretty impressive IMHO.
