I just got back from the Ween show in Urbana, and let me say they are only getting more rocking with age. The band has been around 24 years, and still play really loud. The songs from the new album sound great (it comes out next week). Dean Ween is a monster at guitar, and Gene is just a cornball, but in a good way. Setlist: Exactly Where I'm At She Wanted to Leave Light Me Up Piss Up a Rope Learnin' to Love Take Me Away Touch My Tooter Even If You Don't Object Woman and Man Zoloft Buckingham Green Bananas and Blow Booze Me Up and Get Me High My Own Bare Hands Frank The Mollusk Spinal Meni

I was at this show, because I am a student at U of I. I had my doubts, because I bought tickets and my roommate wanted to go (he works for the company that brings the talent to the school). Him and I were very very impressed. The last time I saw him was at Lollapalooza, and the band was so much tighter. The music sounded great, and I was pumped that he played such a long set. "Shakedown on 9th Street" was a personal highlight, and the version he did was awesome.

Meh. I don't know. I bet they only can play until 10. Lollapalooza can only go that long, and it is not that far away on a weekend. I bet Dr. Dog plays for 45 minutes. They take a half hour to set up. That leaves the band 2 hours 15 minutes, tops. They may be able to do a few more, but not 26-30.

They were supposed to play What Light, Heavy Metal Drummer, Poor Places, and one other I can't remember. Maybe it was California Stars.

Wait what? I don't know if I heard about what you are referring to...

I just got back from a 2 and a half hour drive. It was a good show. I saw the setlist after, they were supposed to play four songs as well. Stupid curfew. I was second row (which I didn't find out until I got there!). The band was really playing well (first time I have heard Kamera live, and this was my 10th show). Anything I say would be simply repeating comments other people have made or will make. Low was fantastic. Too bad nobody was listening.

Section B Row XX 1, 2 and 3. Yay! I would normally wait til the Chicago shows, but I love Low.

They have said yes, but I haven't gotten the e-mail yet.

This kind of stuff always stinks. I don't want to have to buy 3 versions of the record to get all the goodies.

Who ripped it? There is a rip from another board, and I just want to know if it is even worth it to seek it out if I already have one (quality wise).

No, there was a new song, I think right after Forget the Flowers, first time played (although I think Jeff played it when I saw him solo at U of I). Side of the Seeds would have beeen it.

I haven't seen them have that much energy since the Vic shows. They were really loose tonight, and it showed! I havent seen an Auditorium show that good since 2003. Yeah, I was a little disappointed about the set length, but still, the energy was higher than I've seen it in a long time. I LOVED "She's a Jar", and the new songs, while I have heard some of them live before, really are taking advantage of having 3 guitarists (talented ones, at that). P.S. I was in Row Z of the Pit, and behind me was this drunk couple. When Jeff said he didn't know when they would be playing next, the lady start

I'll be at the show at U of I December 5th. 6th Row baby! Can't wait! I saw them twice this year, opening for Pearl Jam, and they were great.

That was me for the "I'll give you a black eye" comment. I was getting pissed off. The people behind me on the first level were just rude, loud, obnoxious college students (and I am in college myself, but I think I can set myself apart from them). If the crowd was respectful in the front, towards the back it just got stupid, and I had had enough. It was just overall disrespectful, and Jeff didn't deserve it. He was very patient with putting up with people at times. Good show though. I really did enjoy it.

I'll be there. I am at ISU, an hour away. It should be fun. My first Tweedy solo show. Where are you all sitting?

You need a DVD drive.

Was that your avatar before?

As am I. Argh. If this doesn't work soon, I will have to do something to forget about it.

I e-mailed the support about it. Hopefully it will come through.

I am having issues with it too. I click on a track, and it leads me to some menu that leads me to a link to when clikcking on it, it goes back to the same thing I was originally at. Hopefully this will be fixed.

Jeff- My thoughts are with you and the rest of your family. There are more important things than music, and family and friends will always be. Eric Heisig

No.

They are still not up...I WANT THEM.

I don't know if this was covered in the thread, but I was reading Paste today, and the bonus CD has a Jay Bennett song on it from the new record. However, the song is credited to J. Bennett AND J. Stirratt. Are John and Jay on good terms? They work together? What is the deal?
