![]() ![]() This was my first time seeing Yo La Tengo and it was nice to hear a mixture of old and new. Luckily DD tucked his camera away in the bag because all I had was my piece of shit phone for pictures and so I have him to thank for the remainder of the photographs (with the exception of one noted). The three of us hurried over to catch the beginning of Yo La Tengo’s set. I was pouring sweat before I got my wristband. Saturday evening’s lineup was stacked and we were lucky to get to Mass MoCA right at 4pm after parking and taking a shuttle from a satellite lot. The Solid Sound Festival, but for some vendors and the Comedy Cabaret, was all outdoors in two courtyards and a sprawling grassland called Joe’s Field. I had been to a handful of shows before at Mass MoCA but they all took place inside at the Hunter Center. ![]() On Saturday afternoon my girlfriend, an old friend, DD, and I packed a bag with sandwiches, water and a blanket and headed for North Adams, MA. On Friday we missed White Denim, The Relatives and a reportedly awesome all-request cover show by Wilco where they covered acts as diverse as Television and Daft Punk, complete with a super moon. Due to my pathetic budget (which has hamstrung numerous concert plans) and lack of personal time at work I decided, regrettably, to forego the weekend pass for Saturday only passes for myself and my girlfriend. The Solid Sound Festival was a weekend-long event with concerts beginning on Friday June 21st. I bought tickets for Wilco’s Solid Sound Festival this year on April 19th, exactly ten minutes after my paycheck cleared. ![]()
