[DID NOT ATTEND: May 7, 2022] Lucius / Celisse

I didn’t see this show the night before in Jersey (even though I was offered free tickets) because I had a (better) show with my son to go to.

So they were playing the following night in Philly (originally Rina Sawayama was supposed to play the TLA, but she got bumped to the Fillmore–good for her).

But honestly, sometimes I can go to two shows in a row, but the Pup show was pretty exhausting, so it seemed smart to just hunker down at home.

I’m not even 100% sure I want to see them live–I really like some of their songs a lot, but a lot are just kind of okay for me.  Although their harmonies are absolutely dynamite.

Celisse Henderson is a wild rocking woman who plays a killer guitar–I think she’s more of a blues player than anything else, but with a modern, female spin on the blues..  I don’t think I knew who she was at the time, but I have since learned that she is a killer and I would have loved to see her.

[DID NOT ATTEND: May 6, 2022] Lucius / Celisse

Lucius had played a Free at Noon show earlier in the day and I could have gone.  But for a couple of reasons I didn’t.

I’m not even 100% sure I want to see them live–I really like some of their songs a lot, but a lot are just kind of okay for me.  Although their harmonies are absolutely dynamite.

For this show, I was even offered free tickets the night before:

I absolutely would have gone to this for free.  (It also tells me it was not selling very well).

But, it turns out that I had SIX shows to choose from this evening: Gogol Bordello, Sunflower Bean (which was actually cancelled), Destroyer (which I had bought a ticket for a long time earlier), Olivia Rodrigo (which sold out long before I could get a ticket), Lucius and Pup (which my son and I went to).

So Pup it was (and it was great).

Celisse Henderson is a wild rocking woman who plays a killer guitar–I think she’s more of a blues player than anything else, but with a modern, female spin on the blues..  I don’t think I knew who she was at the time, but I have since learned that she is a killer and I would have loved to see her.
