I think the whole premium ticketing sucks - I never heard of the "requirement of buying two games". I don't think the White Sox do this (though they might start after this year). I could be wrong about the Sox. I haven't bought a premium ticket since they started it.

Thanks for the link.. Liked the below quote:

My sister was a huge Rush fan, she copied a bunch on their stuff from a boyfriend onto 8 track and I used to grab them from her car and listened to them. Kinda stopped listening to them by mid 80s, but my friend had an extra to the below concert. They made the dismal World sound good. It was a fun night - I was happy when they played Trees, it always one of my favorite of theirs. The video screens/visuals were pretty cool too, esp during The Roll the Bones song. Me and the wife still throw on Chronicles and extended drives. Definitely great driving music. I must admit I did like the movie I

Here is an article from the New York Times regarding today's Tiger game. At least Galarraga got a car and Gotta love politicians.

Someone just uploaded the 3/7/82 show on one of the sites, I think bt-etree. This is my first show from this era that I have heard. Like the two keyboards and Kreutzman sounds great. Kreutzman definitely lights a bit of fire under the band at this show. I love Mickey (for the most part) but it is fun just listening to Kreutzman play without a 2nd drummer.

Wouldn't mind hearing it - do you remember the date of the show?

Here is an article from Spin. Most of info was in the three articles that you linked, but I didn't see the below:

Never saw The Jerry Band. I did see Weir/Wasserman in 1992 (I think) at the World Music Theater. It was pretty empty and I completely understand - It was at the World! I always liked the duo's version of Throwing Stones.
-
That's pretty f'd up about selling the tickets after the fact...who would want that? He was getting a lot of favorable calls in the 9th.
-
I liked Flashback. It was cheesy, though.

Make sure you don't ask us where Son Volt's loft is.

Has anybody heard Stewart talk about this reunion? He must have gave the rest of them his "blessing", though I don't know (legally) what he could do.
-
His role in Hoosier was great, too.

ESPN aired the last inning, I was able to catch it while flipping the channels. There is nothing more exciting, in any sport, than a perfect game. ESPN aired the Marlin feed - the announcers said the whole park gave him a Standing O going into the 9th. Classy.

That sucks - was a great actor. At least Hopper made it back into films after all his issues - hell it's great that he lived that long. His role in Apocalypse Now has always been one of favorite roles by any actor.

I did not notice any change of speed, but I only listened to it twice and I already loaned it to my neighbor. When I get it back I'll take a closer listen. I did not see anyone mentioning it on the Hoffman page. Would be cool to have an original pressing...How did you get that?
-
Well Hoffman is up to 142 pages discussing this release - from what I can gather they are pretty much panning it. But I'm not too sure with all that is going through all the pages. Anyway I think it (the CD) sounds fine it - is definitely louder and they seem to have brought the vocal more to forefront, I can actually make out of what Jagger is singing. I still not have done any comparison to the Virgin or the vinyl I have. Has far as the bonus disc, they only one that I am not particularly fond of is Following the River, that sounds too new and the addition of strings is ridiculous. The re

bands you might listen to more if they had a different singer

Radiohead - music is a bit interesting but not a big fan of Yorke's singing. -
CNN TV just reported he passed away. Chicago trib link Used the watch the show when I was a kid. The red hair kid always bugged me.

Here is a video interview with Ronnie and Kenny from the BBC. Ronnie kinda blames Rod's manager for always making sure Stewart is schedule to do something when the Faces plan to get together. "]Here is one from Rolling Stone.

Soulard is a great neighborhood. Here is a link to the Historic Soulard facts and going on's. McGurks, in Soulard, is a great Irish Pub for food and drinks. The Zoo is nice and I think it's still free. The have a decent Art Museum, too (which I think is still free.) The Landing is a bit of disappointment these days, most of the older clubs are all closed. The Loop area is nice also for shops. Vintage Vinyl is there as well as Chuck Berry's place Blueberry Hill.
-
To Wilco fans he was pretty well known, at least.
-
I know his first song has been the same for years - Whiskey River. Don't know about the rest of the set, though. Saw him last summer with Dylan and Mellencamp. I thought he was good, pretty tight band, though piano was very low in the mix this particular night.
