Is the ban on Speed Racer so severe, that the Mod's won't even allow her image to appear? (I am sure it's up to Ms.Miller, guess I could be wrong)

Well done! - I would have hoped someone would have.

It was okay - definitely nothing to write home about this time around. LouieB, in another thread, brought up the word "boring", with regards to the last time he saw Son Volt --- I wouldn't call Friday's concert boring (though Dave Bryson, the drummer, looked incredibly bored and in a desperate need of a hug), but at times it left a lot to be desired - plenty of redundancy in the sound of the tunes ---- Jay sounded great, though and Spencer was both great on the keys and pedal steel.

I more curious about Standing O - that would have been fun to hear.

Ripthisjoint908, my choice after Workingman's Dead and American Beauty, would be the below. A good rockin fun.

Keith and MIck did help to pay for Hubert Sumlin's funeral and burial - so I guess there is some type of precedent. I wonder if anyone has reached out to the Stones?

Same here. Yay!

Since 89 (even back in 81), Jagger has invited guests or current acts to open up for them, who are/were popular at the time - unfortunately, the people who sell lots and lots of records these days - pretty much suck (Ga Ga , Swift, etc...). I agree with Suites - the ticket prices are what sucks, I can deal with a tune with Swift or Ga Ga - actually I thought Ga Ga was kinda fun to watch. I had family members who went to the Monday, Chicago show -- they said that the As Tears Go By with Swift wasn't "too" bad. I was kinda of impressed with the Stones fans - I didn't hear any boo's from the y

I recently listened to The Centrum shor from 1984-10-09. It sounded pretty good.

According to your link (I haven't been following this "Grand Theft" stuff), David Plouffe was the one who tweeted the "Grand Theft" bit, not Carney - Plouffe was backing Jay up. I do have great respect for Plouffe - but you are right here - Plouffe should have taken the high road.

His briefings are pretty brutal - not sure why he is still around. Gibbs was great during the briefings (sure he was pompous as hell, but that was good), Carney seems lost a lot of times. Behind the scenes, Carney probably gets along with the press, more so than Gibbs, since he is a former reporter - but I think he should head back to the newsroom. The Press Secretary gig is definitely is a tough one, though.

Maybe, at least now, there is a better chance of them releasing a bunch of $85.00 tickets.

More press about the house. http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/20424032-421/muddy-waters-home-rollin-and-crumblin-in-north-kenwood.html

So how's was the show? Looks like you got to see a Can't you hear me Knocking, too. Was offered a Monday ticket, but I passed, proberly will be kicking myself.

My pick would be Wilson, too. Pretty straight forward song. If it's a house party and the are requesting Phish, they should be familar with the tune and be able to participate, which might be fun.

Definitely! Don't know how to do the dropbox stuff, but would be happy to get the discs. I did participate in some vines last year though the HIttin' the Web site, so I do have some Allmans - when I get home, I will shoot you a PM with what I got and we can set up a trade or something (if I have something that you don't have.)

Since I managed, thus far at least, to skip the latest 77 Dead box set - I may end up getting this one. I do not have any live Allman Brothers from this era, either - so it will all be pretty new to me.

With regards to the Recovery Act, the below is a nice read.

I never listened to Brothers and Sisters all the way through. Looks likes a good set.

I saw Beth Orton perform in the late 90's - it was pretty good from what I remember. Cassidy would be a good song choice.

Just got the below email - Guess Weir is all good - Great, great news.

Really nice version of Throwing Stones on the 10.9.84 show.

XM is playing an audience recording from The Centrum on 1984-10-09, only half way through the 1st set - good stuff thus far. 14 sources at the Archive.org - never seen a show with so many sources, before.

Decided to go the Son Volt show ---- it was a very tough call. Still need to make to the Constellation venue.
