Last time he was there I was lucky to see a unknown named Sturgill Simpson open for him. Doubt I will be that lucky again.

So... looking for a hotel for the DMB concert.. It looks like Hotel Fort Des Moines is really cheap... and really dumpy.. Is it worth the cheap $$ to crash in after the concert? I will not be sober when I get to the hotel..
It has become a dump, because they are in the middle of big transformation...

Closer to Wells, I would go with Holiday Inn, Quality Inn, Embassy Suites or Saivory. All decently walkable
Dwight Yoakam is headed back to the Surf on May 29th. I will be in attendance.

Cloud Nothings are amazing, I have requested them as an add for multiple years now, very pumped for that....Definitely. Wilco and Weezer are great well-recognized festival headliners that should pull in travelers from across the state and neighboring states. Also excited for Jenny Lewis, Talib Kweli, Run The Jewels, and the other bands I've heard of but haven't gotten around to checking out yet.
Holy crap, there are like 5 I'd go to!
I have 3 Hinterland tickets I need to sell. Anyone interested? I have a wedding in STL that weekend.
