Not sure when it’s coming out but their newest album was produced by Mitch Easter at his Fidelitorium Studio in Winston-Salem. I’m a fan but don’t really know that much about baseball.

Well I bought a ticket in the presale, just because it’d be awesome to see Buck/Mills/et al there.

Let me know if anyone else is going to the DC show!

(Though now that I think of it I’m pretty sure that’s the same week the Red Sox are in town playing the Nationals, which I was considering trying to go to as well. Baseball games interfering with the Baseball Project concert?)

They’re great! I’ve seen them a couple of times and met Peter, Mike, and Scott at the shows. As a huge baseball fan I suppose it was easy for me to get into the songs (which are all obviously about baseball). I’m eyeing the Birmingham show.

I bought tickets when I saw their advertisement in my area for this year. It’s a small venue and I’m so looking forward to seeing Mike Mills and Peter Buck in person and in such close proximity. I never saw R.E.M. in concert and this will be the best alternative. Can’t wait.

Awesome. You’re in Richmond, right? I’ve been to a few venues there but not Richmond Music Hall. Hope you enjoy the concert.

I really like Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner. I’ve always thought of baseball as glorified rounders which we played at school (good fun though). We don’t have it over here- it’s an American thing. I guess someone somewhere decided to develop rounders into a big old American game? Yee haaa!
