My tix say 5:30 doors, so I figured 6:15-6:30 start for stars. Just an educated guess on my part.

I called Summerstage this morning to figure out when each band goes on. They wouldn't say, but did say the show starts at 7 and it must end by 10 (curfew). If you know how long DCFC usually plays, you can sort of work back from there.

I've never heard that version of Goodbye Girl before, but that sounds more like Tarkio than the Decemberists.

Tarkio's still a Colin Meloy band, so I think it still sorta counts.

Well, here's a link to an mp3 of the greatest version of Goodbye Girl you will EVER hear. From a rare Squeeze EP, a rocked up/boogie woogie take with Jools Holland tearin it UP. My fave Squeeze recording PERIOD.

The MP3 isn't The Decemberists...it's the B-Sides
