so i see andrew bird playing in lyons colorado & think "that can't cost much" even though it's attributed to a festival. find it costs $45! not incl. parking. DAMN. sure, 8 artists playing, but i never heard of any of 'em except ani difranco.
...
told the wife who's kind of an ani fan & she's more interested than me, so maybe we'll go after all... i'm going to try to talk her out of it and plan on going to the bluegrass festival next year.
