Is there a link to this site, yet? I guess I have been following any of this. Is it the neilyoungarchives.com site? (his site has always bugged me - too cumbersome. Thrasher Wheat isn't any better)
-
What's up with this 'new streaming deal'?
-
Read that he is doing a webcast tomorrow.
-
Sure, both of them - too. Steve is probably my favorite character on the show.
-
I am sucker for Winona - every role of hers deserves an award... I do think her performance in Season 2 was pretty great, though.
-
That's been Winona's M.O. since Lucas --- I thought she stepped it up in Season 2 - perhaps because she seemed to have a larger role, this season. Bet she will get an Emmy nod.
-
Must admit - the "poor man' s Don King" is a good line --- all unbelievably ridiculous though... I guess it isn't unbelievable - which in itself unbelievable.
-
Haven't watched this in the a long while - great performance (Rolling Stones with Angus and Malcolm - (SARSfest, Toronto Rocks, 2003) ( I would be remiss if I didn't write "Charlie's good tonight, ain't he?" - man, does he kill on this) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hstVYSDwCfs&app=desktop

Esp.,- since it more than likely be the same exact show, since she is using backing tracks, etc. --- I would see her any chance I would get, too. My wife and I will be at the Chicago show in Jan. I have a show from this tour (a live webcast that she did) on my hard drive - but we opted not to watch it, yet. My friend saw her last night in St. Louis - haven't heard how it went, though.

Compared to last year when I saw CRB at the same place (Thalia Hall) - this past weekend it did seem that the band had a bit of a chip on the shoulder - esp Casal -- I always enjoyed his playing, but this weekend -he was playing with much more emotion - taking center stage - doing the typical rock star guitarist stuff - which was great. Perhaps this is how he normally plays - but I don't I don't remember him playing like it last fall when I saw them. Not sure if this has any correlation with Magpie - but if it does - I hope it continues. A healthy competition is never a bad thing. I did ta

Saw the Chris Robinson Brotherhood again last night. It was another great show. Tight vocals. Adam was in the mix well and he didn't over play. Casal played a lot more Telecaster - more than I expected and he was great through out - real great. Chris was pretty much on, too. His rhythm guitar playing still doesn't really add anything, but he doesn't get in the way, either. I would definitely catch them.

Chris Robinson Brotherhood at Thalia Hall - Chicago
-
Yep.
-
Him and Keith were my favorite guitarist when I was kid. I wore out my sister's AC/DC 8-tracks.
-
Ha! I was just listening to that on the way home from work.
-
More than likely, I am heading down to St. Louis to catch them.
-
Let us know how that McLaughlin/Herring show is - if you don't mind... I didn't hear about the tour until recently and the two Chicago dates are sold out. Sounds like a great show. I know I am beating dead horse here - but if I only listened and watched a webcast of Dead & Co. - I may feel the same way, but actually going to a show is a whole different thing for me - with this band. The whole vibe is pretty great and the music is a big part of it. It's weird, I guess. It does suck that prices for tickets for this Fall tour are a bit expensive - but so it goes.
-
Yeah - I am kinda surprised that it isn't sold out -- on paper, the band that he is bringing, doesn't motivate me to go. I noticed a few weeks ago he added Eric Krasno and Karl Denson to the bill.
-
Well double fuck - didn't hear anything about this show until now. Crap. Speaking of the Riv - Phil is playing there tomorrow and Thursday. Tickets still available for both nights.
-
Technically that line came from Patti Smith.
-
Stick with Ozark - I think it got better as it went along. We will be watching the last episode of Stranger Things 2 tonight - another great season, thus far.
-
Very nice, indeed. Still need to catch these guys play at some point.
-
I guess I didn't think the whole anti-Trey/Phish was still a thing. I heard the rumbling prior to the FTW shows, but not since. Can't say I have seen any 'Anybody but Trey' shirts floating around the lots, either. (Though I don't follow any this too closely)
-
It helps that my wife likes Mayer --- though she never was really a fan of him prior to the Dead and Co. thing. He doesn't bug me and I think his playing is good and at times great. He definitely brings something different- for better or worse - than the above guitars mentioned. I never been a fan of the whole 'clone' idea. I just never gotten it - If I want to listen to somebody play like Garcia - I will just put on a tape - like this morning 11/14/72 has been playing. I listened to each of the shows that I attended once - mostly because I wanted to hear how the taper did. I probably wo
-
Maybe because Phil isn't around, so they can have fun ( i kid - kind of). I agree that Oteil and Mayer bring a lot more energy to the table and that energy is definitely felt at the shows - at least during the shows that I was at. It definitely feels like an actual band again, rather than musicians just sitting in with the rest of the Grateful Dead dudes (or dude).
