There were a couple songs i liked off of it. I saw them at Gathering of the vibes and thought the first half where they played all the new songs was kinda forgettable but.

Certainly. In some ways it's new, in some ways its a bit forgettable, but overall, I think it's just generally "quirky".

That amp shot....did you catch if it was a Marshall? Or some sort of clone? Really odd that they plug the "1" channel inputs and only go into one of the "2" (usually 1/2 are hi/low inputs). Bridging is pretty common, too. Also, that is a lot of SGs. I wonder if Tweedy has a thing against Les Pauls or something.

Cool shots, either way :D

I'm pretty sure it was a Marshall. The cabinet was for sure. He did have other amps that were more unique/boutique. The coolest SG (or maybe "Les Paul Custom") was in the missing slot at the time. It was a 63' with three pickups. The tech had is on his bench and showed it to me right after this. Supposed to be all original hardware. The paint was beautifully cracked. It's the one he is playing in another shot. These were just iPhone 5 pics of course. I didn't want to be too obvious either so they were snapped quickly. The non performance ones anyway. That one that looks like a Les Paul is actually some kind of fake. It's really light. So maybe he thinks Les Pauls are too heavy?
