Beck hopes it won't rain.
Oh the friends I know ... always keeping me informed. Just heard (from a real friend and Beck himself, via his MySpace) that Wilco and Beck are playing Bend's Les Schwab Amphitheater in August (Wilco on Aug. 23; Beck on Aug. 24). HELLS YEAH!
Here's what Mr. Beck had to say about his show (I assume the ticket info is the same for Wilco):
Beck will perform at the Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend, OR on August 24th. Special guest Cold War Kids will open. Tickets go on sale this Saturday, May 3rd at www.ticketmaster.com

We aren't trying to break your heart.
Obviously I should read all the ads in today's Weekly before blogging on Thursdays...

I think I'm imposing a ban on further excursions to outdoor concerts/amphitheaters (unless the ticket is free). The acoustics suck, there is always a huge parking fee, the jumbotron cinematography is piss poor, most seats are way the fuck away from the stage, the band's energy usually cannot match the size of the venue, etc. etc.
Anyone have a dispatch from the recent Radiohead show in Auburn, WA? I know a bunch of y'all drove up there last week. Or drove down to Outside Lands Fest in S.F. this past weekend.
