I can't fault going after Syria, after the chemical warfare episode - I am just gravely scared on who is in charge of running this for the U.S.and quite frankly I still can't believe it. This is what I was most afraid off when he won the election and was worrying that he was going to get us killed. Aslo, I see an anti-David Brooks tweet in the near future... https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/07/opinion/the-coming-incompetence-crisis.html a few nuggets:
-
Yeah - that one was funny. We stayed in Telluride for a few days about 8 years ago. Had a couple of drinks at a bar where they had photos of the show on the wall. Plus, the hotel we stayed at a huge photo in the lobby. A few of the patrons at the bar where living in the town when they played there - great stories. Sounds like it would have been a great time.
-
Phish rats? never heard of that, either. I do remember patchwork. Never had any, but friends did.
-
Well we started with Syria - hopefully the administration is able to keep things in check in the aftermath.
-
Don't get the Donna Phish reference. Cool pants, though, and she does look great.
-
Think it was Weir that f'd up. They had to restart Truckin, too. Guessing, Garcia stopped it because it was a TV taping. They had stopped tunes and restarted them during actual concerts, too - of course, I forget any examples. Wish they would release this. It did sound great in the theaters.
-
Well today the White Sox may have already peaked for the year with a 11-2 win over the Tigers. Shields pitched great to boot. Also, nice to hear that Sale had a great opening start.
-
Everyone seemed to have looked and acted weird during that tour.
-
I have the show on my hard drive, haven't watch it in a while. Need to rectify that, tonight. That above clip with Baez is what I remember most. Speaking of Baez, I caught her new song about the President. She probably could have worked a little harder on it, but the sentiment is there and it is kind of catchy.
-
I believe the show above was in Fort Collins, not Boulder. Definitely a great show. The Dylan/Baez duets were shot nicely. How anyone survived that tour is beyond me.
-
I am sure he was just driving himself to the doctor/pharmacy.... For some reason, I am more interested in what Letterman has to say, anyway. Must admit, I miss the guy.
-
Brinkley will have complete access to Dylan's archives in Tulsa, too -- him being a historian and a pretty great writer, I hoping for great results.
-
I read the same thing. Also, Douglas Brinkley is writing a book about the period surrounding the Rolling Thunder years.
-
I just got it today and just started disc 2. I agree with you --- I think it's a song connection for me, too. Sound wise it's great. Enjoy your first show.

Somebody needs to ask Keith Richards his thoughts on the Pepper deluxe package. (har har har)
-
Yeah - the $150 is what stinks about only having the BluRay as part of the Super Deluxe -- which is typical with these sorts of deals/reissues.
-
I would be interested in the below - but, of course, it's only part of the super deluxe. I am assuming at some point they will sell it as a stand alone. I am happy with the mono and stereo release of this record that they put out a bit ago, as part of the box sets. They should include the mono in one of these sets, too. I don't think they ever release it on cd, as a stand alone. I could be wrong about that, though.
-
Last week, I checked out the 4 disc version from the library. I watched a bit off the Bonus rehearsal stuff last night - it's okay. Chuck definitely plays pretty sloppy throughout. Some of the Berry/Richards interactions are pretty good - not sure how much of it was staged, though. It's was nice to see Robert Cray in the concert/footage -- always has been a fan of him since the early 80s. Actually, I have been on a huge Robert Cray kick for the past two months or so - what a voice that guy has - nice guitar chops, too.
-
Ha!
-
Does this mean that you think Keith didn't do good job with movie.
-
Yeah - and I missed it. Decided to take the kids on the quick spring break trip - booked it - and then remembered I had Son Volt tickets. Oh well ---- like my brother (who i was going to go with - a dad of three) said when I called him up to tell he him that I booked a trip with the family ---- 'why the hell did we have kids'. It was a great trip, though. Hopefully a boot pops up.
-
Yeah - would love to hear a tape of that show.
-
Kinda surprised to see Rockford, IL on the list. I don't think they ever played Rockford, before.
-
Yeah - the double JGB CD was my intro JGB - my parents bought it for me for Christmas when it came out. I don't think I even had any JGB boots at the time, so it was all very new to me. I remember thinking how different it sounded from the Dead.

If I knew about the below - I forgot about it. Pretty funny. from Robbie Robertson via Rolling Stone
