The main attraction for the Nashville trip was seeing the Walkmen rock it out at the Mercy Lounge. I've seen them put on some great shows over the past 18 months or so, capped off by a fantastic set at Pitchfork this summer (see below). We spent the day well, including a wonderful (as usual) brunch at Margot, a productive trip to Grimey's and a fantastic cookout over at Dana's place (for which I am still indebted).We checked out Here We Go Magic as the opening band, and it was a bit meh for me. Without much ado, the mighty Walkmen then took the stage and played a (for them) fairly mellow set with a good dose of new songs. It was a good show ... not the same level of blow-the-roof-off good that I've seen them bring lately, but it was reliably good ...
