From a Chicago Sun-Times article - that's pretty cool.

I am pleasantly surprised and happy with the White Sox, thus far, of course they have a loosing record. Need the bullpen to start clicking (They definitely have blew some games). The starting pitching and hitting (Dunn, AJ, Paulie) are starting off great. Dunn's game winning homer against the Tigers this past Saturday was a shot. Plus it helps that the rest of the AL Central are not playing too well.

Good point.

Do most signature guitars have the name (Tweedy, for instance) on the headstock - it seems a bit cheesy? It is a great looking guitar. I just think I would want any signature/name on the back.

That was from their Cabin Fever DVD release which was filmed at Levon Helm's barn. It is a great version - the whole DVD is great.

Beautiful, indeed.

Going to Chicago....what to do, see, stay, etc.

Jazz fans mark your calenders. August 30th - September 2nd - Chicago Jazz Festival http://pix724.blogspot.com/2012/04/chicago-jazz-festival-announces-artist.html from Ken's twitter feed: -
I am hoping they release So Far separately at some point - which I am sure they will. I don' think I ever have seen Backstage pass, either. It is a nice price for them all.

I wonder if Jerry's Nash guitar is going to be there?
-
Yeah - looks like they have a crap load of gear there.

No idea what Instagram is, but that is a great shot.

Never listened to it - should try it sometime. I do consider myself a Lou Reed fan.

The song worked great with the scene.

Since I mentioned Neil Steinberg earlier in the thread - I might as well post a link to his column from today. He sat down with Dick Durbin (IL U.S. Senator) It's Durbin's take on the Tea Party, Occupy Movement, and Democrat/Republican relations. http://www.suntimes.com/news/steinberg/12067377-452/durbin-election-best-hope-for-reviving-government.html

That last pitch was close.. ..plus this is AJ's first - Castro pitched Buehrle's.

Can't believe I missed it --- AJ's second, I believe, catching one.

I think that may have been my line of thinking (hired hands). At the time I had a few Robertson solo records, but I haven't been following what the then-current Band was up to. I do remember when Jericho was released and thought their version of Atlantic City was pretty decent. Of course, his recent "Dirt" releases are great. Another side story regarding Helm, I could have grabbed his set list from his last show at the Old Town of Folk Music. I saw a show there the next afternoon and it was sitting on the stage. It was near Justin Roberts keyboardist' keyboard so I figure someone gave it t

Anybody make it to the Alpine movie last night? I couldn't make it.

Watched a bit of the above last night - looking forward to watching more of it. My only time seeing The Band was in 93 or 94, when they were opening for the Dead. I missed most of their sets (they played two nights) because I was having too much fun in the lot --- I was young and stupid.
-
I ordered this release from Matador this past Monday - hoping to receive it, soon. A Renaldo/Wilco bill sounds great.

I am not sure when the term jam band took root - but I think I was listening to the Dead before I heard about the phrase "jam band" - At least I don't remember ever saying to someone who wasn't familiar with the Grateful Dead - "I going to see The Grateful Dead - you know that great jam band". I never thought of the Dead as a "jam band". That's just me, though.
