Thanks to you, Howie, for all you've done to keep things moving forward so that all of the fans (whether worshipful and/or curmudgeonly!) can continue keeping the summer alive.

An absolutely
superb article from Chris Willman, and I'm sure many of us hope that someone was able to record the evening for posterity. If not, Chris did a masterful job of capturing its essence.
A sweet touch to have Mike (
"that song is a motherf*cker!") in attendance...
While I wasn't able to come into town for it, I'm
not going to miss Al and the Pet Sounds band on the 27th!
