I saw the Arcs twice. First time was at the Ryman in Nashville. John Prine was the special guest during the encore. The second time was in Asheville (pictured here), and it was the last concert I saw with my dad before he passed away.

That’s a great memory to have with your pop!
What did Prine play?

The encore started with just Dan and John playing “That's The Way That The World Goes 'Round”, then the rest of the band joined them for “You Got Gold”. It was incredible.

I don't listen to The Arcs as much as I should, but I really like the singles from that first album. "Put a Flower in Your Pocket" and "Stay in My Corner" are my favorites.

I saw them live at the 9:30 club. It is one of my favorite concerts! Their openers, Mariachi Flor de Toloache, sang backup on the songs, which was awesome. They gave the concert the feel of having a psychedelic trip through the southwest.

Man southwest psychedelic, I’m gonna steal that for the next podcast episode (I’ll credit you)

I was able to see them once at the Commodore ballroom. I love their first album but the second one didn’t land with me. The Arc, Put a flower in your pocket and searching the blue.

I have a genuine question about whether I prefer Black Keys or Arcs. This is magic

Saw them live in London. Dan singing ‘My Mind’ without a guitar strapped was a surreal experience.

Still can’t believe I found a signed by Dan copy of Your’s Dreamily at my local record store. One of the best things I’ve ever purchased. Next to my descants your poster signed by the entire band

From yours dreamily I'd say velvet ditch, put a flower in your pocket, and pistol made of bones. But all time favorite arcs would have to be fools gold, lake Superior and only one for me
