I waffled on getting a ticket to the first night in Chicago and it sold out. Wasn't sure if I wanted to visit the in-laws that weekend.

I had no clue he recorded with them, but yah I enjoy them. Good band, albeit spotty across records.

Woods and Woods adjacent bands (meneguar, raccooon, woodsist roster) are great. Lofi Freak folk stuff that gradually got lusher over the records.

I suspect if these dates go well, he'll do more. He's been pretty open about needing the money.

i loved this line

Songs build little rooms in time
And housed within the song's design
Is the ghost the host has left behind
To greet and sweep the guest inside
Stoke the fire and sing his lines

but I think my favorite verse is

This world is like a roadside inn and we're the guests inside

And death is a black camel that kneels down so we can ride

And when the dying’s finally done and the suffering subsides

All the suffering gets done by the ones we leave behind

He's playing on a bill with William Tyler, so fingers crossed for lots of Tanglewood.
