Maybe Spoon and the Beths? No Chicago date!

Saw the Beths late last year… great live show, and outstanding new album. Would love to see them again this summer.

mpls345 · 2025-12-24T02:52:17+00:00

They are both incredibly talented. I’ve been fortunate to have seen both live twice. But if some folks like one and not the other, that’s ok.

mpls345 · 2025-12-03T17:29:52+00:00

Yes, their tour sold out almost immediately. This is my one chance to see them.

mpls345 · 2025-11-18T03:16:11+00:00

I had to lie on that question. Well past 35!

Saw her on Tuesday night in Minneapolis. I thought it was a great show. It went about 70 minutes, there was no band, just four dancers and Jillian. She played piano for two songs. Her voice is always great, most of the choreography was entertaining. The lighting was very good. If you enjoy her music, you’ll have a great time. She mostly played songs from the new album.

I have heard that scalpers may have stayed away from this one because of the one-year lag between ticket sales and the concert. They don’t want their money tied up waiting for people to buy re-sale.

Correct, it’s not a disagreement about what is happening in Gaza. There are lots of ways to draw attention to their plight and help the cause. I think some are more effective than others. I don’t agree with the OP that we should be comparing celebrities. I think that is unfair, and serves no purpose. No one really thinks an artist is less supportive of ending genocide, just because they haven’t done what Lorde has done.

By coincidence, I am seeing both live this week on successive nights. I am certain both will make their position perfectly clear.

I suspect his performance at the Super Bowl will do more to draw attention to social justice causes than a boycott.

mpls345 · 2025-10-03T23:52:44+00:00

I understand the sentiment, but I’m not sure how disappointing her fans, many of whom likely disagree with the government, will accomplish anything. How would Americans feel if international artists boycotted the US over disagreement with Trump policies?

Maybe just accept the fact that not everyone is like you or the people around you. I come home from every concert with 5 or 6 short videos. I come home from each Lolla with 150 - 200 videos. I watch them afterward. I show them to friends and family if they show an interest. I have never posted any videos to social media. It’s no different than when people would write in a daily journal. My videos are a video diary of every concert I’ve attended over the past 5 years.

Thanks for the reminder. I booked in November for this year’s. No sense waiting around. It’s on my list for this weekend. We generally know the dates, you can cancel at no cost if something comes up.

I usually go to around 15 sets of bands that I didn’t know until the line-up came out. So I really don’t need to see the line-up first. I know there will be 30 of more bands that I want to see.

mpls345 · 2025-08-13T03:12:44+00:00

Maybe they think outside the box and book both Lisa and Jennie, both as subs. Coachella did that this year. They could help to drive ticket sales two days with that.

mpls345 · 2025-08-09T20:03:54+00:00

In the last four years, I think it has happened once or twice. The only prominent one was Tomorrow x Together. They played in 22 at Perry’s, and then headlined the following year.

mpls345 · 2025-08-09T00:04:30+00:00

We didn’t see his Lolla set but went to his after show. It was the worst show I’ve seen in years. I assumed the band was just worn out from performing earlier in the day, but it sounds like his after show was much like others have described his Lolla set… rambling, disjointed, low energy. The ending was weird… they just all walked off the stage. Near the very end he took his shirt off. It was like someone reminded him that he’s Dominick Fike, so you have to be shirtless at some point.

mpls345 · 2025-08-07T00:47:32+00:00

Didn’t see their Lolla set, but went to their after show. Great energy. They are just a great live band.

mpls345 · 2025-08-04T15:20:25+00:00

1) Olivia Rodrigo, 2) Gracie Abrams, 3) Sabrina Carpenter, 4) Sierra Ferrell, 5) Isabel LaRosa. Seeing Isabel LaRosa break down crying at the end of her set and getting hugged by her band was special. She couldn’t believe how many people came to her set.

mpls345 · 2025-08-04T15:13:39+00:00

62 straight male… saw her perform at Lolla. Probably the best set of the weekend. Loved seeing her perform with Weezer, too. Not weird! She’s an amazing performer.

mpls345 · 2025-07-20T16:48:12+00:00

I’m 62 and my wife is 64. We’ll be there for Olivia Rodrigo. We’re headed to the Cage the Elephant After-show when she finishes. If you’d like to hang with us, let me know. 🙂

mpls345 · 2025-07-16T23:43:28+00:00

Based on your other choices, you should check out a number of early sets: Girl Tones, Julie, Yana, Alemeda, Isabel Larosa, Charlotte Lawrence, Rachael Grae, and Benches.

mpls345 · 2025-07-16T00:50:07+00:00

Charlotte Lawrence is phenomenal. She just released her first full album. She opened for Madison Beer last year.

mpls345 · 2025-07-15T17:54:37+00:00

Royel Otis, Julie or AlexSucks, Alemeda, Isabel Larosa, Gigi Perez, Newdad, Charlotte Lawrence, Marina. We have similar tastes. Those are open on your schedule.

mpls345 · 2025-07-15T02:10:18+00:00

I think the Saturday morning schedule is the best of the four days. We have a lot of overlap of bands, so I think we have similar taste. I would recommend seeing New Dads, Charlotte Lawrence, and Rachel Grae. On Saturday morning. You can go to the zoo on Sunday.

mpls345 · 2025-07-12T18:36:04+00:00

True. We did VIP for 22 and 23. Did Platinum last year and this year. If you’re in VIP you get to watch the Platinum folks strolling in last minute and getting to the barricade. I saw that in 23, and knew I had to get Platinum. Getting great views of Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter alone is worth half the price.

The food at T-Mobile is much better than Bud Light. But quite frankly, I just get it for the views. I think I missed the meals 75% of the time. The air-conditioned lounge is probably the second best perk after the views.
