The first time I saw her was opening, then playing with Todd. Great stuff.

I believe Todd officiated the Shires/Isbell marriage. Trivia!
Love each other, Motherfuckers!

Great piece from CBS, unfortunately I've seen this posted in a few places this morning and the comments are disgusting. Also some asshole got thrown out of their set for yelling "show us your tits". Makes me embarrassed for my gender. Give 'em hell ladies.

No love for Del’s?

What I’d give for a Del’s right now, it’s been 95+ every day for weeks on end. Wife’s going home to Rhode Island next week but I am not tagging along

Cards on table: never really liked the lobster roll, at any price. If forced to pick I'd rather have a stuffie

Right now I'd gladly pay $4.50 for a small Del's

I think I saw them here in Chico literally right after you did. That was the my favorite live Amanda that I've seen.

$19 for a lobster roll is a steal, esp at a festival (and it was a very healthy serving of delicious crustacean). then again, i got two comped tickets and splurged on some Pappy VW on Sat night too.

I don't think so, it has to do with another of his exes that they employed to do merch for them iirc. FWIW, I don't know that JTE & Shires were ever an item, she supposedly modeled for that album cover as a favor.
