It was a lot of fun. I took my daughter out of school for it. (Shhh, don’t tell her teacher.) Nice crowd for a rainy Friday at 1:00.

They played five or six songs, including three from their new album. The highlight for me was their newly worked up cover of Radiohead’s “Packt Like Sardines in a Crushed Tin Box.” They stayed to sign stuff afterward.

I’m a long time fan of Nickel Creek and fondly remember seeing Mr. Thile in his younger days at the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas and many times since. It’s great that he’s gracing Decatur with a visit.

Unfortunately, I’m not going to be able to get away from work, but my wife is going to try and make it.
