All of these people are getting smaller. Remember how small David Byrne was? Well Robyn is getting just as small.

Actually it looks like Robyn is lots bigger than David.

I guess our thesis is just wrong. Right?

Emma opened.

Then came Robyn.

Madonna of the Wasps

So You Think You’re in Love

Oceanside

The band was tight. Those Nashville people. They just don’t loosen up.

Almost Loose But Not Quite

Lewis and I got loose with the help of some very bad Rye. Why don’t these music venues sell booze that is good? Seriously. We’re 60 now and we will pay.

When we get loose we dance and sing. About which, if you don’t like our singing then come shoot your own dang videos!

I Want to Destroy You

For some reason, this made us utter, “Life is Life,” which in turn caused Lewis to think of this. We have no idea what you will think about that. We pause now for a slight Laibach break.

And we’re back with more Robyn content.

Oh no wait…this just in. This is actually Pink Floyd content. I love this song and all ancient Floyd of Yore.

See Emilly Play

Turns out Robyn can play anyone’s song!

Dear Prucence

We had a great time even if we did not get to have a 9:30 cupcake or sit in the bad view stool seats.

All 4 1 and 1 4 all.

Finally, a word from our sponsor.

Here’s looking at you Robyn.

Yes, you.

Psychedelically speaking, that is.

The show was held in Annapolis at the Ram’s Head with a capacity crowd on a Saturday afternoon. The time feel in the venue is set to “Vegas.” Could be most anytime but definitely night time, even at 1:00pm. The food does not suck even though the ditzy waitresses are way too loud.

Robyn played a handful of the songs on the great new self-titled record. Buy it for yourself.

And some old favorites that the crowd adored.

By far the most amusing and entertaining part of the show was the “free part,” that being the part with the banter. We had to pay for the music part. Worth every post-Brexit penny.

Did I already say Robyn played some of the songs on the great new self-titled record? Well he did.

Then there was this.

Catch the tour if you can.

Robyn Hitchcock at the Barns of Wolf Trap 2.6

Leave it to our dear friend Cyn to get us out on a Wednesday night to see Robyn Hitchcock play a makeup show. The original date was snowed out way back before the flowers came up. As always, Robyn put on a superior show. Delicious and polka dotted.

Oh, and the seats were great (thanks Robyn).
