For some reason, I only seem to interact with Ryan Adams’ music once every four-to-five years. And yet, I’ve been consistently enamoured with it, never hearing a track I didn’t like.
Adams' latest tour has been a solo venture no backing musicians, no openers. I'd imagine those were choices made to uncomplicate matters and let the songs stand on their own merits.
He took to the stage a few hours later, deadpanning: This is so many people … too many people! I wanna thank the band Kiss for having us open for them.
In a rare moment of chat towards the end of this show, Ryan Adams took a swipe at a previous live review where he was accused of being self-indulgent. “Man” he proclaims, “That's like eating a dessert and then complaining that it's sweet.
