Ian McLagan & The Bump Band at Yard Dog Day Party (03/17/12)
IAN MCLAGAN

AOL is not working so here hoes an update for day. We saw Ian McLagan from the faces at the Yard Dog Party. It's an art shop with space in back for bands and parties. He doesn't really have a voice, but for 66 years he sings his heart out with a joy that so many others miss. Saw a couple no name bands as well. Not worth any more mention than that.

MUMFORD AND SONS

Now we are sitting outside the LBJ museum on a beautiful night waiting for Mumford and Sons. There must be 10,000 people inside.
Overall really good shows and they have been able to make the jump from small to large crowds in a short period of time. I'd seen them once before when they were third on the bill at the 400 Bar with Laura Marling.
They brought on a marching band from the local high school at one point. It was quite the scene with at least 40 people jumping down on the stage....
New material sounds great (no info on when it's coming out)....
No picture because sitting behind a fence didn't work well...
Early this afternoon, we tried to get into multiple day parties and had no luck, so we eat BBQ sitting on a curb and then went to Flatstock, a poster show.
Edward Sharpe is finishing up and ended with "Home", which gets a lot of airplay in Minneapolis.
