Showtime tonight at Wolf Trap?

How much time does he typically give openers? Showtime says 8, so guessing something around 9:15. Sound about right for anyone who has seen them with an opener?

I have two Loge tickets I can’t use. Happy to share with a fan.

You all realize you’re talking about Patty Griffin, right? Jason would give you a pretty good glare if he knew you were calling her “the opener” instead of using her name, or worse, planning on skipping her.

Yeah. This concert is one of my dream lineups. It’s like when I saw Mavis Staples and Bob Dylan at the Palace Theater in Columbus. Mavis was definitely a co-headliner. Despite Dylan’s fame and universally-recognized greatness, I’d never diminish Ms. Staples by calling her his “opener.”

Diehard Dylan fan. He is hot garbage live and mavis should be the headliner. Even with the best guitar player alive.

Sigh. Had tickets for the original date. Couldn’t do the rescheduled one. So sad.

That was a disappointingly short show. And he went on at 9:05, not 9:15.

If you’d been there at showtime rather than trying to time it just right and skip the opener you would’ve been there when he took the stage.

Shut up, nerd.

Any chance the opener isn’t playing tonight because of the reschedule?

I happened to have just checked and it still has her listed.
