Tickets for Ryan Adams & The Cardinals on Sunday in Charlottesville purchased. I get to indulge my not-so-hidden fangirl, even though it involves a bit of a road trip. Anyone else local interested in going and carpooling? I gotta come back reasonably promptly after the show since I have to be at work on Monday, but since the show starts at 7:00 I'm thinking we won't be back at like 3 AM or anything.

Today's laugh courtesy of the show description:

For the most part, Ryan Adams hopes that he can just play some songs and whatever. If that’s not okay with someone, that’s totally fine, He won’t come into their homes and like, jam on top of their TV sets, or in their face wearing nothing but a cowboy belt with gun holsters and women’s underwear while screaming "Listen to me...look, look what I did… LISTEN TO ME OR PERISH!!!” Then, turn into a gigantic metallic spider and wrap whoever up in electric coils and devour them, only after injecting them with poisons so their insides go to mush.

Well, he’s totally not into that at all, and really sort of keeps mostly to himself these days. He knows that everybody thinks that he is some kind of lunatic, and maybe that’s so, but as long as it’s not in someone else’s yard, and yeah that happens to everybody once or twice, but really.

He'll never go anywhere in the biz with that sort of "Can't be bothered" attitude. ;)

Is it so wrong that I'd actually enjoy it if Ryan did show up in my living room wearing nothing but a cowboy belt with gun holsters and women's underwear?

(And by the way, he and Parker Posey apparently split up some time ago. Now's your chance! ;))

As much as I'd enjoy dating Parker Posey if it she fell into my lap, if it's gonna take any work I can't be bothered. ;)

I really liked the solo show I saw in SF, even if he was in a drunken ramble. I think the Cardinals keep him more on track, so hopefully it will be excellent! Can't wait to hear how it was!

There've been raves on the forums, but I suppose that's kind of self-selecting for people inclined to say the shows were good. =) I'm excited to see he's apparently doing some of my older favorites; here's the setlist from Baltimore:
