Was he cranky---I do enjoy listening to him, but he sure can be a dick. One of these days I am going to catch a jazz show at the Symphony Center.

Happen to catch a Orchestra Baobab show at the Hot House back in 2002 or 2003 - that was fun show.

Ecstasy is my favorite Lou Reed release - so I guess it's essential. Great tour behind that record, too.

Night 1 and 5 for me. Still on the fence for Night 3.

I kinda look at the Hall like Keith Richards looks at writing music. Maybe one day they will change the name of the place.

Indeed - great looking guitar. Enjoy!

Still need the Ginger Baker documentary that came out somewhat recently.

Glad it was good show --- already returned the ticket last week -- I'll catch him next year, hopefully with Cook. Knows he is taper friendly and sells his soundboard in flac, so I will probably snag/purchase tonight's performance if and when it's available .

Not a bad list.

I had a ticket to see the show, but once Elizabeth Cook canceled, I decided to get a refund. Would be interested to know who replaced Cook. Was really looking forward to the gig - actually the ticket was for tomorrow's gig at the Old Town, not tonight's at Space. Been in a bad rut lately due to cancelations - Ratdog last month, now Cook this month. Have a ticket to see Dylan in November and my figures are crossed.

According to Jambase:

We got all the way through re-watching it (it was my wife's first time through) - but it definitely did peter out in the end --- I must have stopped watching it , back in the day - because I didn't remember the last half of the 2nd season at all. I never did see the movie - at least I don't think I ever did.

As far as I understand, Tweedy (solo) and Wilco have been playing WTA songs, but not releasing the tunes on their Roadcase releases.

Watched it last night up to Passenger Side - great performance - nice to have this artifact from this year of touring, since I didn't get a chance to see them this time around. Nicely shot (for the most part), too.

My wife and I just entered the Apple family 4 days ago with a purchase of a MacBook Pro - with all the talk, I was expecting the new U2 record to be playing when we turned it on - but nothing. (I haven't gotten around to mess with the music side of things, yet) It is a nice machine.

Bah!

Nope - never knew Hiatt had a daughter in the music racket - need to check it out..

John Hiatt is still making some great records - Master of Disaster and Same Old Man is as strong as his mid 80's work. His latest is pretty good, too.

I have always enjoyed Brent's studio versions of his tunes more than the live versions - esp. Blow Away, where the live versions I heard on tape or saw on video never appealed to me, but I enjoy the studio version. . Though, if I witness more Brent shows, I may have a different opinion - I only saw two - the first one, he didn't sing any of his tunes and the second was his last - I don't think 'Never Trust a Woman' is a good song.

I watched the Richards' segment but turned it off and forgot to go back to watch the Replacements' segment - thanks for the link.

I think vocals during some of the 74 shows were affected by the microphones used. http://dozin.com/wallofsound/

I know Mickey Raphael sat in with them on 9/7/14. He played on Give Back the Key to my Heart.

I went the opposite this morning and listened to: Grateful Dead Live at Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center on 1985-09-10 (September 10, 1985) Some of these mid-80's shows are over so, so quick --- esp. the above. Okay show, never heard it before. Guess Weir was climbing the scaffolds during Sugar Magnolia. Now onto 9.10.83.

Well, I didn't think I would cross off "walking my daughter down the aisle" from my father/daughter list so soon --- little bugger wouldn't go unless I went with her......

Well that was a nice set.
