I think the first time I saw the movie was renting it from a video store.

30 years ago for Rattle and Hum -- i do remember buying the record when it was released. It must have been right before I got around to buy a cd player. Don't remember watching this Smile Jamaica Benefit Concert, 16-October-1988 at The Dominion Theatre, London show before --- Richard's guitar tone is god awful during When Love Comes to Town, it' not too bad during Love Rescue Me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKJTobOH9UE&feature=youtu.be

Also, when Zoberist slid back to first - the umpire called him out - replay showed he was safe, but I saw some games where a call that close wasn't overturned. But also, the Rockies made some mistakes on their own, and the Cubs could not capitalize. Especially the non-catch by the Rockies right-fielder, Baez could have called for interference with his hug, too. It was just a frustrating game to watch and I am not really a Cubs fan. Maddon should stick around, too.

Go Brewers! Tough game last night -- I couldn't stay up for the game -- was hoping to see that they won. The Cubs got lucky quite bit last night and could not capitalize - pretty frustrating.

He used the calendars as a method of keeping a journal -- I guess his father did the same thing.

Re-listened to 10.1.77 again this morning - what a great Music Never Stops -- the drummers on throughout.

Just listened to Signe's last show and Grace's first show yesterday. Got Jorma's auto-bio, too - but haven't read it, yet. Very nice piece by Jorma - thanks for the link.

Agreed ---- never thought the FBI would get involved --- take back what I said about Flake -- glad he got it out of the committee, so the full Senate can have some input. Guessing the Senate will create some new rule that any committee person not running for reelection is off any committee...Flake really put a wrench in things.

Listening to 4/1/88's When Push Comes To Shove -- yeah, how can anyone not like the tune? Such fun!

or you know Sen. Flake, you could have just voted no today while in committee and asked for an investigation...

Yeah ---- unless something else pops up in the next 24 hours -- physical evidence (pictures , etc...), which proves that he lied under oath -- of course he would be able to spin a picture, too. Yesterday's sham didn't change anything with the R's. Going into yesterday, I didn't think Kavanaugh could pull off a more assholeness performance then he had during the first hearings, of course I was wrong. He reminded me be many of the high school douchebags that I went to school with, before any of these allegations popped up.

At first glance I thought it was Owen Wilson.

The price of More Blood, More Tracks has been dropping - it's at $114, now. I bit the bullet and pre-ordered. Also, just got the 'A Simple Twist of Fate' book from the library yesterday.

They all seemed completely bored in that footage. It was cool to see Nicky Hopkins play the Wurlitzer --- at least I think it was a Wurlitzer. Harrison's tone was great, too --- though it too seemed a little uninspired.

Looks like Glenn plays on the record, too -- from the WIlco HQ email. Jeff (with additional drums by Spencer Tweedy + Glenn Kotche).

Indeed --- caught the show up in Minneapolis, the new tunes sounded pretty good. Looking forward to the release.

Agree with the rest - a nice read.

I assumed there was going to be at least a 2 disc version --- that stinks. Probably a ploy to get the collectors to spring for the 6 cd set - knowing that 1 cd version is never going to do it for them. I need to dig through my hard drive to see how much I have of this already.

Yeah -- hoping the price will drop down a bit.

More sad news about Betts -- hopefully he pulls through ok. https://jambands.com/news/2018/09/19/dickey-betts-critical-head-injury/

Listening to 9/20/70 yet again, today ---- one of my favorite shows. The acoustic set is exactly perfect. https://archive.org/details/gd1970-09-20.140664.sbd.boswell.smith.miller.clugston.flac1644

Sounds like something AC DC would have used for a deluxe box set version of If You Want Blood You've Got It. I like it.

I went for the 2 disc of the 65-66 Bootleg and I have been kinda kicking myself since. I was hoping my library system have sprung for the 6 cd set, but so far they have not. I did the 79-81 complete set. Skipped the Basement set - but tI am able to get the 6 cd set from my library, when I feel like listening to it.

Thx - Just put it on hold -- don't think I ever read it before. Blood on the Tracks is probably my favorite record of his -- guess I need to see how much the thing is going to cost before I decide.

I never had a problem, "When Push Comes to Shove" - good tune.
