Going to be a lot of new Ron Gallo fans after this weekend. He brings the fire.
Ruston Kelly makes some good music.
He’s also married to Kacey Musgraves, and I think she did some backup vocals on his most recent album, so maybe she'll stick around through Sunday.
She's...married? Well, guess I'm sitting this year out.Ruston Kelly makes some good music.

Dawes puts on an awesome show. Their catalog of music is really strong.
I was at a brewery in the suburbs of Chicago one time when a live acoustic version of "When My Time Comes" came on. I made the place shut their damn mouths so I could Shazam the song and figure out what awesomeness I was hearing.They really do - I enjoyed them a lot at Wooly's a couple years ago when they were there. But I probably will skip Sunday, just because they're really the main draw that day for me.

This whole scene is like
Guy 1: you’ve got to hear this new band that nobody knows about the live show is so great too
Guy 2: everyone knows about them. They are playing at Hinterland not the Hull Ave Tavern
Make sense? This is mainstream music but the fans of it think it is like some small knit scene that no ones knows about outside of a select few.
Basically it's like the Hipster scene. Everyone claims to be different and individuals and yet they all dress the same thing and drink IPA's and other craft beers. Making them all exactly alike. Even more alike than the normal person who just wears normal clothes.
Wait...wha? Hipsters don't drink PBR anymore? I thought it was the rest of us drinking the micro's.
So, talking about music = hipsters. Got it.
Exactly. I could just as easily say the same about these guys just wanting to sound cool and edgy by bashing on everyone with a long beard and sleeves and as a result are just walking in lock-step with the emerging nation of anti-hipsters which, of course, is so un-individualistic.
Trying to paint everyone who's into Hinterland with that brush is just dumb and small-minded. For a lot of us it really is about the music, whether some think it's so mainstream-antimainstream-mainstream or not.
And for the record I have no beard and no ink.
