The traveling carnival that was the tour by Modest Mouse, Pixies & Cat Power touched down in Chicago's Salt Shed for a couple of sold-out shows on August 30 and 31 of 2023. I've been lucky enough to see these bands a couple of time before but in all cases, the shows were years in the rearview mirror. A Modest Mouse show will always set you up for minor heartbreak, you will never get all your wishes granted. But what an amazing show it was. Personal faves like "Dramamine" and "Ocean breathes salty" were on the menu and "Teeth like god's shoeshine" was sublime. Everyone was in superb form and looking and sounding absolutely fabulous.
