A couple of years ago I bought tickets for their roll out with Brian Jonestown Massacre, but they COVID-cancelled which made me upset; and, like, you know, whatever. They are playing the Bottle in April and I'm like, well, fuck - I kinda dropped-out after All Is Dream, but have also kinda paid attention to subsequent releases. Is it worth $30 to hear the last decade of MR in hopes of hearing a blistering rendition of "Trickle Down." I think I just talked myself into it.

I'm considering it, but it's on a frickin' Tuesday. I really need to move closer to the damn city.
