Rock the Garden







Tapes N Tapes
Booker T
Neko Case
My Morning Jacket

This was the lineup of who Chris and I and two of our friends got to go see in the rain at the Walker Art Center for Rock the Garden! Tapes n Tapes are local, Booker T is legendary and even played in The Blues Brothers, Neko Case is from Canada and I cant remember the unique thing about MMJ. Maybe just that they are awesome and have been a fav of Chris's for a long time. It was a huge range of music and not a dull moment. We even got to try tacos from the barrio taco truck! yum! We also got a big bucket of fries to share amongst the 4 of us and oddly enough when Chris was carrying them about 4 strangers thought we were also sharing with them and asked if they could have a fry. Who does that? Wierd. Rain, fry thieves and all it was a BLAST! We have wanted to go to this concert the last at least 3 years and either have had other plans or not been able to get tickets so we felt super lucky this year. And we were lucky that Chris's mom and Dave and Allison could watch Linnea. We left her during her nap at the twins birthday since this concert started at 4 on Saturday afternoon and went until 10. We had a great time and it sounds like squirt did too. They played in grandma's nice big yard and had movie nigh nigh until about 10pm! She was then up at 6:30am! And as I wrote in the Father's Day post proceeded through the day with basically no nap and lot of activity! What a trooper!
