Funny….

Went with D. to see Wilco at Wolf Trap. Good show, a really tight band. The opening act, Cut Worms, was also good. They were kind of a 60s pop throwback. Enjoyable.

Went to see Maggie Rogers on Father’s Day with D. Good show, although I wish I had been more familiar with her songs. I tried listening to the new album a lot before the show, but I guess not enough time to sink in.

I particularly liked her solo piano version of I Still Do, and also Don’t Forget Me, which I think it a particularly good song.
