Whew, it’s been a busy week. I spent last night at my fifth Teddy Swims show, which was the best I’ve seen but not close to my favorite. The production value of the set has gone up significantly since his popularity exploded, but I’ll take a tiny, intimate venue any time. We saw him at a little spot in St. Louis when he had to do most of the set from a chair because he’d sprained both ankles. A few weeks later in Louisville, he and some of his bandmates shotgunned beers halfway through.
Though not a perfect comparison, it reminds me a little of the 2015-16 Cubs.
