I was never a big fan of that Stones songs. I always blamed Lennon/McCartney though.

OM is okay - I never saw that cover before - pretty cool. The only clunker for me is "To Be" off of Expression. Not a big fan of his flute playing.

Good tune - my Les Paul looks exactly like the one in the video, too.

Must admit, I don't think I ever heard the Beatles version. The Crowes version was fun. Definitely had the early 60's vibe and the screaming was a nice touch. Also it's nice that they didn't turn it into a 6 minute song.

It's not the Stones (written by the Lennon/McCartney) cover?

The Dec. 14th just popped up on bt.etree - Looking forward to hear the I Wanna Be Your Man. The Black Crowes - December 14, 2010 - San Francisco, California - The Fillmore

I glad you cleared that up - I was wondering who the hell you were. As far as the topic goes - WTA is not a favorite of mine, but I think the songs hold up live rather nicely. I am not real fond of I'll Fight, but after the South Bend show I was humming it for few days.

I do love when huge storms hit on a weekend (when I don't have travel plans). Walking around my neighborhood is always great during a snow storm. The lakefront is nice during the winter, esp. when the waves crash over Lake Shore Drive and I do love downtown Chicago during the Holiday's. I'm not a shopper, but I do enjoy walking around State St. and Michigan Ave. and people watch, plus all buildings' lobbies look nice.

cbd - Thanks for taping.

Tribune Link Great news.

Pat Hughes reflects on 15 years with Santo Nice piece by Hughes. Santo's Brant Brown drop ball call was one the best.

Same here. He put up a hell of a fight and never lost his sense of humor.

I hope that's the case.

Exactly. In the 60 Minute segment, the director even had her doubts regarding opening night/weeks.

"60 Minutes" ran a segment on the Spiderman play last night. It looked pretty cool. I have no idea how they are going recoup all their costs, though. Here is the CBS link to the segment.

I guess Pearl Jam is allowing their 2000 soundboards to seed on the torrent sites. Starting from the 1st one of 2000, someone has been uploading them on Bt.Etree. With the exception of radio airplay, I don't listen to much Pearl Jam. I have been down loading a few of their 2000 shows, though. I did see them play a Lolla a few years back - good show.

Thanks.

Do you know by chance which source you grabbed?

"Redskin reparations" Boy, that was a fun listen.

Nobody Ruins Dylan Like Dylan Above is from the NPR All Songs Considered The Blog. It sparked a rather large amount of comments. I do grade Dylan concerts on a bit of a curve, but I don't think I ever left a show disappointed. I must admit while at and after the show, in the back of mind, I'm thinking I am seeing "Bob Dylan" and it may be the last time doing so.

Here is a nice quote from Sandberg regarding with him signing with the Phils - makes sense to me:

There hasn't been. He is usually pretty prompt with his start time.

I thought Sandberg said he did not want to manage in the minors, anymore. Oh well - it was a dumb move by the Cubs.
