Re: The Vic Theater, Chicago - 2 years ago
What a totally excellent show. So much love and admiration for the always amazing Megafaun. Can't wait to catch them on tour soon. Huge amounts of affection and praise for the darling Yuval Semo! What a welcome and talented addition. Here's a setlist for those of you (like me) who like that kind of thing.

Re: The Vic Theater, Chicago - 2 years ago
So excited for this show! I swore to myself i wouldn't check the set lists and get my hopes up (but couldn't help it because I'm a little bit of a maniac.) But ONTARIO?! Praise something holy. I'm that girl who always awkwardly/politely wheedles on behalf of Ontario. Next week can't come soon enough.by goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Is it just too passé to mention my unflagging interest in Zoop 2011? - 2 years ago
Because (as an adoring fan and 2009 cross-country attendee) I am interested. Unswervingly so. Who's got the secret dirt? John, I'm looking at you. (Through your bathroom window.)by goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Re: For Charles Bronson - 2 years ago
He played this last night in Missouri too. It sounded awesome. And thanks for that setlist! I'd been checking the On The Road section for one to no avail. You're great.by goingtomilwaukee - Mountain Goats

Re: Iowa City show 6/12 - 2 years ago
This was a lovely, lovely show. I was so happy to have made the drive. I didn't expect an awful lot from Iowa City, but the crowd was awesome. And I've never heard a better Houseguest. (Still crossing my fingers for the re-emergence of Terror Song.)by goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Re: BreastFest - 3 years ago
AMAZING show. But, Weekend in Western Illinois (as listed) was actually Twin Human Highway Flares.by goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Re: Top 20 TMG Song List - 3 years ago
Fun. Of Golden Boy--it's my kid's favorite lullaby. He's two. He hollers for it whenever I'm trying to croon some En Vogue or whatever, and I totally get where John is coming from. Exasperating. Terror Song/All Frosting don't count I suppose, but I fucking love them to death.

Re: Minneapolis Show 11/7 - 3 years ago
What a show! Gosh. And I'm fairly sure it was Orange Ball of Hate, then Going to Bristol. If that concerns anyone. And the joke-start to 'Rebel Girl' might deserve a mention. As the tease of the century. John Darnielle covering Kathleen Hanna? Unfathomable. I DARE you. Make my day. (please?!)by goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Re: ZOOP POTLUCK! (official unofficial sign up) - 3 years ago
Here's that recipe which is easy and good and is rightfully attributed first to my great grandmother Bitsy who made it delicious, and second to her great grand daughter Mary Catherine who made it vegan. (and third to MC's vegan friend Sarah, who had a birthday and made it happen in the first place.) anyways.

Re: Zoop 2009 Registration Is Up - 4 years ago
I checked farm sanctuary so many goddamn times today, my fingers are bruised and bloodied from refreshing the page. but figuratively grasping my interweb reservations eagerly with those same sore fingers makes it all completely worth it. I cannot wait. deep breath. (if anyone wants to carpool, Mary Catherine and Sarah are driving from Milwaukee WI arrow-straight through the golden and gloriouby goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
Re: 2/25/09 Swedish American Hall SF - 4 years ago
Nall! Thanks for making all of my San Francisco dreams come true. I'm not sure how I instinctively knew the show was NOT TO BE MISSED, but I was right on. And YOU, my lamb, are right on. You'll always have a friend in Milwaukee. Mary Catherineby goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
eeek! San Francisco? - 4 years ago
Dear San Francisco, my love: So I waited too long (of course) and wasn't able to get a ticket for the Swedish American Hall show in SF... anyone with a spare? Pretty please?! If it matters I'm flying in special from the Ice Planet, Wisconsin... xoxo, Mary Catherineby goingtomilwaukee - On The Road
