I thought so, but mis-read that page the first time around. I was hoping maybe a summer festival in California or something. Looks like the only live music we'll get when we're out there is Helio Sequence at a little club, so that's okay/great, but I would have loved to see Wire at Slim's in SF...
THE thing that I do not understand about professional musicians is their ability to play the same material over and over and over again and still generate passion in each performance. How DO they do that?
Now in their 60s, they could be doing what most artists of their vintage do, cravenly basking in the glory of their past: it’s hard not to think they’d be playing bigger venues if they’d only knuckle down and play I Am the Fly and 12XU every night. But they won’t. If they’re not quite as unyielding as they were in the 80s – when they refused to play anything they’d recorded in the previous decade, hiring a Wire tribute band as support act instead – you still get through an entire Wire gig these days without hearing a note of the music that made them famous.

Lots of 'em don't. Dylan blasts thru his hits, lots of bands put their biggest hits into medleys they can just knock out before they get to stuff they'd rather play.
