Well that's good - I thought that maybe Twin Peaks fans really hate Wilco or something.

Did the crowd boo or moan?

Yeah 25x5 is good one. I still have Rewind on VHS -- that was a fun one -- the setting was a museum with Jagger and Wyman. Speaking of Wyman, I did watch Wyman latest doc - The Quite One a couple of nights ago -- well worth the time, some pretty cool footage. I watched it via Hulu - not sure if it streaming elsewhere.

My library is bringing in Cohen's book in for me today - which should be a nice easy read while visiting the in-laws over the Thanksgiving weekend. I guess it's entirely possible that the band were in their hotels by 9 pm -- I know the wanted to wait for the sun to go down before they played and since the show was in December I guessing the sun set by 5 pm or so.
-
I always assumed it was because the Hell Angels had access to good drugs ---- the Dead has always seemed to have a good relationship with them, I guess they shared their 'outlaw' spirit. I know I checked Cohen's book out from the library, but I can't remember if I read it.

Indigo Girls at Thalia Hall
-
I remember it being in a 'Midwest Rockers' type wing. I was kinda surprise to see the stuff there, too -- this was back in 2012, when I went there to see the Grateful Dead exhibit that was there at the time.
-
I saw them play two nights at the UIC pavilion,---- I think Margherita billed it as 'The Great 2009 Chicago Arena Tour' to insure induction into the hall ---- does that count? side note, I bought the night two poster last week during Wilco's sale for $5. They didn't have night one available.
-
I hope all the members get in - but I think the hall actually does the picking and for some reason I don't think those past members will get the nod, guessing Tweedy will have some influence, though. I am guessing Leroy will get in because he was the two above records and those two were successful, award and sales wise.
-
When they ever get into the hall, I am guessing, beside the current members, only Ken and Leroy will be part of it and maybe not even those two. But who knows. It would be a real shame if Leroy was not involved.

Almost won tickets to the Weir show today from XRT -- was caller 6 - they wanted 10.
-
Guessing ashes are mentioned, right? Ha!
-
Finally listened to Colorado via the library - not bad.

I really enjoyed the 2nd night at the Chicago Theatre last year --- that being said, I can skip this time around. It was great just seeing a trio up on stage - it helped that I had great seats and the crowd around me was great. Security let a lot things slide, which was a bit odd for the venue. I think the tape holds up, too.
-
Below is the Chicago Theatre seating chart. I would stay in the triple and double letter range. The booths and mezzanine levels are nice, too. Great place to see a show. https://www.theatreinchicago.com/seating.php?theatreid=103

Pete is talked about a lot --- tough gig, being a manager of the Crowes and Roth...wonder if he has any easy clients?
-
I don't remember any Van Halen/Roth stories.
-
Yeah I got the book from my library -- he does have some cool stories about the Stones and their time with Page and Plant.
-
I about 3/4 through Gorman's book -- it is wonder that these two are back together, of course it is about money - but so it goes. I can see why Gorman is not involved, it seems like he has been quitting the band since the mid 90's. The book is entertaining enough -- basically on one page Gorman calls Chris and asshole, then calls Rich one on the next page, then back to Chris, back to Rich and on and on and on.

A person on the Hoffman board shared the below Google drive link to all The Golden Road issues. They were always a good read back in the day. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J76VacLm-GQ47pzXolTjaVZz4tKWea9q

Yep - just on the 1st song, Things Have Changed. It was nice to see. Great, great performance, overall. Would recommend this tour if he passes through.
-
After every comic book run - a stop at KFC, where he crotched the bucket and the heat from the chicken helped to deteriorate the seat ---- it's all coming together, now...
-
Ha!

I can't picture Garcia ever riding the below - but who knows. https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25922/lot/350/?category=list&length=12&page=5
