Information Society was so good! I love them.
The concert tonight felt very intimate and like a gathering of old friends… despite the fact that I didn’t know anyone else there! 😂
I guess it being InSoc's hometown played a big part of that. It was cool seeing Kurt just kinda out in the crowd chatting with his friends/family before the show.
Managed to capture a few videos.

Another year of amazing options and hard decisions. I feel particularly bad for not ranking Information Society as my favorite, as they are a hometown fave of mine. They'll just have to get honorable mention. #Minneapolis #InformationSociety #InSoc

@drwho I'm not into vinyl records, but if I were I'd totally yoink this. Thanks for thinking of me!
At any rate, I do have an old #InSoc disc on the wall already: https://hackers.town/@Rob_T_Firefly/106212174088712138
this new #insoc album, ODDfellows, is definitely them, distilled even. it harkens back to sounds from throughout their discography and even has a few new tricks that verge on jazzy. it's found a happy home in my collection and will be seeing many repeat plays in the future.
