  1. jimmy jimmy, some news for ya in this post.

     

    I left NW Georgia Wednesday morning for Louisville, one hellava show that night....may be better than the 6/29 show. Post show I had the opportunity to share

    a few beers with Brad P. and John "Slider". I asked about the night before. They said all the Cards were in town but Ryan was flying in from

    NY. There were in fact storms in the area and his flight was delayed. He arrived 2 hours after the show was scheduled to start. I understand they

    cancelled once they realized the delay was goin to be over an hour.

     

    I left L-ville Thursday and a made the long boring arse drive to G-Town. Checked in room, went straight to the G-town Commissary for my ribs and Bud then on to the show.

    As you may have heard a solid show, though much shorter than L-ville. RA said not a word, etc. Still worth the trip.

     

    Might as well ramble about rest my ramble. Friday morning was yet another visit/tour of Graceland. My tour companion hadn't been before.

    After spending too much $$$ on campy EP gifts for friends it was off to Little Rock for the weekend. My first trip to the Rock, you folks near there

    have a sweet little river area. Toured the Clinton Library on Saturday as well saw The Bottle Rockets at a neat little club called Sticky Fingerz, The

    Chicken Shack. The Shack alone will get me back to LR to see other club level fav band of mine one day soon. All in all a great road trip, just under 1,600 miles

    of nothing but Smiles.

     

    The Louisville show is up an archivedotorg and the torrent is still alive at RA Archives. Grabbed it this morning dew.

  2. Tickets are on the brown truck!

    Best news I received in my inbox this morning. I was starting to sweat it. Louisville tix came earlier this week. G-town

    to arrive Monday and Tuesday I hit the road. Commissary is where I'll be pre-show.

  3. i was at the 6/29 show...two encores...2 hour 40 minute set...seems like you just sort of have to get lucky with this guy

    one of the best shows ive ever seen:

     

    Lucky you. We listened to this show all day yesterday.

    You are right, better to enter the venue with little to no expectations.

  4. Good Times. Thanx for the review. I don't beleive they have done an encore this summer.

    just one set, and gone. You make it sound as if the band was playing electric, were they?

    Be the first of summer if so. Definitely the first set of the summer with more old songs

    than the new ET tunes.

     

    I'm hitting the Louisville, KY & Germantown, TN shows in 2 weeks and can't wait.

  5. so last night I'm talking to an old tour bud of mine about how much rain, etc.

    we had...he recalled it wasn't the wettest Wilco show we had seen.

    anyone recall the 10/18/97 show in Greenville, SC?

     

    it was a radio sponsored gig with Gov't Mule and a few others. went basically all day

    in a (minor) baseball stadium. It rained the entire day.

  6. I got a complete tape and will post it soon. I put my mic stand just under the front edge of the canopy over the soundboard, and you can't really hear the rain. The canopy did sort of "trap" the crowd shouts and some conversation, but I think it'll be a pleasant listen overall. I'll post a link when I have it up.

     

    RE: the volume, Chastain has strict limits on the volume, with fines for the bands if it goes over. Stan was having to watch a decibel meter the whole time, so his hands were tied on that.

    For those interested Sloan has a sweet website:
