Tanks a lot !

Great, great job !

Yeah, first time the band sell us some crap.

Really bad tabs

-3-3-3-3-3-3
-2-2-4-5-4-2-0-0h2p0  then play the C riff.

There was the nice hammer/pull off missing on the G string at the end of the D riff.

Also I'm pretty sure the same hammer/pull-off is played on the G string at the very end of the C riff

yep, they had small microphones on stage pointed at the crowd..hope that means something!

Now that's a good news.

They do record all of the audio, but were having some issues with that. Apart from the XRT broadcast, there is no indication there will be any official release of any of it.

As far as I'm aware whenever a show gets recorded for an official release they, of course record from the soundboard, but also

points microphones at the crowd so that they can mix both sources afterwards.

The sad thing is that I didn't read anyone reporting any microphones stands so far (apart from those from the fan tapers).

Hope I'm wrong though...

OK, this has been dormant for a while, but here's the latest.../...So, this is the response we've put together, hoping to clarify our position on this. Let me know if any of you have any suggestions for changes, additions, etc.

Gogo, thank you very much for your work

...from the French for "again. again". That's an encore...)

Oddly enough in french we call an encore a "rappel" (= callback)....

I know this might be the wrong thread, but were tapers present ?

I hope the recording quality will be as amazing as the one that came out last year.

I guess MKHstudios was present so we can safely expect that.

...a special thanks to samuel_70. without his help - i may not have made it to the show.

My pleasure.

Thanks again for the great recording.

Samuel

I dream Wilco would release something similar to Pearl Jam's "Live at the Gorge".

To samuel_70 and the other posters in this thread - the letter has been turned over to the admin/mod dudes of the board.

Thank you all for your effort.

I'll be away for 3 weeks as from tomorrow.

Hope we'll get some good news when I return.

Cheers,

Samuel

Alright

Here's the updated letter. I've left the language in about archive.org being more impersonal than more interactive sharing options, unless there is strong opposition to its inclusion.

Sounds good to me.

Good job Ninjas !

...He also made mention of a Paul from the States who was at the show as being the most ardent of their fans and offered some light-hearted advice about his need to get a life....

Gotcha Bebop ! Now we all know you were there !

To Paul's defense, following the band around the world and taking some time discovering all those foreign places IS getting a life.

Anyway, now we know we'll get a setlist very soon.

Samuel

Cool pictures. I'm even in the slide show.

Hey, me too ! I'm the one taking a picture with the camera (I recognize my purple pull-over), that's how I took the pictures I posted above

Funny picture though; shooting a camera shooting the band

Breathe Amazing !

(Just hope the band won't end up like the Floyd though...)

And now some pictures !

You can check them all here.

... the venue was bloody freezing, so I'm gonna wrap up warm for this one!

Haha ! I saw Jeff solo a year ago at Vicar St and indeed it was pretty cold inside.

However, Jeff's voice and a few beers helped warming up

That's quite a popular question nowadays.

For a good part of the first set, though they seemed to be a little sluggish

Probably, but that's also due to the setlist for the first half of the show, as soon as the rocking stuff came up it was a blast.

Also, did you notice Jeff, John and Pat non stop smiling and laughing as from the first encore until the end?

I'm pretty sure at some point Jeff turned his back to the audience because he could not refrain from a good laugh.

I guess the reason is that 2 (drunk) chicks dressed up like bimbos moved on to the first row and started to do some suggestive

dance moves. Like as if they were at an Enrique f....ing Iglesias concert.

Pat was looking like...interested . Then Jeff, John and the roadies were presumably making fun of him.

Jeff was laughing all through the encores, probably thinking "I just can't believe it, we're M

no hints about the scheduling conflict?

No. no hint nor explanation from the band...
