Speaking of turning it up to eleven...
Original Black Sabbath lineup announce new album, 2012 world tour
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/11/us-blacksabbath-idUSTRE7AA57Q20111111

I'm going if they come here!

Have to assume they will. And it'd be heresy if they play anyplace other than the Cow Palace. (Which doesn't mean they won't.)
My only experience with Black Sabbath was a jillion years ago at a Day On The Green.  I was backstage with Cheap Trick, talking about making an 18-string bass.  They were real excited about seeing Black Sabbath when they were on.  How long ago was that?  Late 70's?

ETA: Wikipedia says "Day On The Green #2: Journey, Cheap Trick, Black Sabbath, Molly Hatchet, Shakin' Street (July 27, 1980)"

I did! I had thought the concert was Saturday, so I don't feel too bad about it. The Mrs. and I will be going to Noah and the Whale on Monday, though.

Hey, I heard Pegi Young was the supporting act.  I'm guessing there might be a surprise guest during the show.  Keep us posted!

I saw Neil (from a distance) last night at the Sharks game. First wearing a hat and glasses. Kind of unrecognizable. Then after no hat and no glasses. Just looked like a kind of decrepit old guy.

saw The Civil Wars last night at The Fillmore.   I wasn't familiar, but a friend invited me. Sold out show, with a very mixed crowd, but overwhelmingly white.  not sure how to classify them: Appalachian/Nashville/Iris Dement/that Oscar winning song from the movie "Once."  gentle, lilting, harmonic, mournful, minimalist.  man and woman, they both sing, he plays guitar, she sometimes play piano.    very nice.

Through a series of unfortunate circumstances, (none serious), I am afraid I'll have to sit Stills out. Looking forward to Noah And The Whale on Monday, though.
