The Two Sides Of Still Woozy Come Out In Superb Armory Performance
Downtown Minneapolis felt dead on Thursday night. It didn’t feel like a show was happening at the massive Armory due to the lack of people hanging around the front. I got nervous. Did I have the wrong night? Maybe the wrong venue? Sadly, it wouldn’t have been the first time for either of those things. I saw a few people here and there walking towards the main doors and entering. Okay, clearly, we had a show, but where were all of the people? It wouldn’t be until headlining act Still Woozy took the stage that I would see that we did, in fact, have a show, and a massive one at that. It was one of those late arriving kind of crowds that just couldn’t be bothered to stand through even one opening act before the main attraction. Whatever– it’s their loss because everything about this entire show was fun, intriguing, different, and, did I mention fun?

Canadian Taylor Pendrith leads the 3M Open in pursuit of his 2nd victory of the year
BLAINE, Minn. (AP) — Taylor Pendrith shot a 7-under 64 on Friday to take a two-stroke lead over Matt NeSmith into the weekend in the 3M Open. Playing in windier afternoon conditions, Pendrith made a 30-foot birdie putt on the par-4 16th and tapped in for another birdie on the par-5 18th. He had a 12-under 130 total at the TPC Twin Cities, playing the first 36 holes without a bogey. The 33-year-old Canadian won the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in May in Texas for his first PGA Tour title. He tied for fifth last week in the Barracuda Championship in California. “Today was pretty tricky with the wind, it was blowing pretty hard at times, so my speed was great all day and stayed really patient,” Pendrith said. “I didn’t really have many good looks through the first hour I would say of golf and was able to stay patient and make a couple, made a couple longer ones, which was nice.”
