I got to see Wilco with Sleater-Kinney in Boston this past August and I didn’t expect it to hit me as emotionally as it did. I ended up in tears for the whole thing and it felt so good to finally hear live music again. Since then it’s been Idles and Wolf Alice in between spikes in October and November.
That’s an excellent pic of Robyn!

I saw them in 2017 (?) Close your eyes (and count to f@#$) literally made the ground shake. They were still relatively “new”* when I saw them.
*El-p has been around for a long time.

I went to see The Fratellis live in a smallish club in London. Adore The Fratellis and no masks, a busy bar and a stonking great set was fantastic. It was a tiny drop of normal. A few days later, restrictions were put back in place only worse. This whole thing is a shitshow of the highest magnitude.

Things are only just getting going here and I just got my ticket to see The War on Drugs at what used to be The Point in April, so I guess that’ll be my first lockdown gig. YAY! 
It’s probably indicative of the times we’ve just lived through that I had to use an email address I abandoned 1 1/2 years ago to log into Ticketbastard.

The first one was Carbon Leaf at an outdoor stage last July. I’ve since seen CL twice more, and also been to see the Alternate Routes. Also a local baroque chamber music group started live performances again and I’ve been to two of those with another coming up soon.
All concerts in DC, at least at indoor venues, still require vaccination checks I believe.

Wilco and Young Fresh Fellows, October 2021. It was a cancelled date from their prepandemic Ode to Joy tour.

My friend and guitar teacher, is in a Neil Diamond cover band and is performing on my birthday (April 16th) at a venue about five miles from my house. Stoked!
I have not attended any actual national touring act show, but when I was in PA the local guys just kept going. There were plenty of open mikes. I was at many of them. Masks were off and we all partying like it was 2019-20. The owner of one establisghment believed in freedom and refused to shut down.
And… The Duran gig I had booked for June 2020 is finally going ahead two years later! Can’t wait! WOO!

Don’t “Come Undone”.
i forgot i posted this. As far as showing an vaccination card i think it depends the mood i’m in.
I’ll be going to a Pearl Jam tribute, Thirty years of 10 next Saturday night. This show was meant to happen last year but was rescheduled twice due to Covid outbreaks & restrictions. So it’s happening at the Gov next Saturday night with finally, most restrictions lifted.
Haven’t gone to show since my eldest and I saw Emmylou Harris and Sass Jordan at charity event in the fall of 2019. We had tickets to Jimmy Eat World tickets for the fall of 2020 but that obviously didn’t happen. I was too sick last year to go to a show, but she and her girlfriends went and saw All Time Low and are about to see Tyler Shaw and Josh Ramsey later this year.
I thought about Garbage or Foo Fighter tickets, but I’m still experiencing a lot of fatigue and pain from the MS and still recovering, so it may be later this year before I go to a show.
