i'm cool with no cameras. i was lucky enough to be front and center for a tweedy solo show in tulsa. i was borderline-riducled for being caught by a VC member's camera taking a pic of jeff to remember the event. a few years in hindsight, I agree with Jeff. That was my memory and I fucked it up by trying to take a picture during an acoustic Acuff-Rose. The picture sucks, the memory is awesome, and I wish I had never wasted the :30 taking the picture.

I'm lucky enough to be old enough to have met everyone but Max. Anyone else?

6-14-99 at lunge ax he played pecan pie and all the same to me, black eye, forget the flowers as well as covers of ripple, dreaming, and thirteen.

I was also at that show. probably the most musically religious experience of my life. blue mountain opened. i've been at very few shows since then where the audience and band were so interconnected. the night also ended with me and my buddies giving jeff and ken a ride back to the hotel in my car. ken still had the weed on him and jeff asked if since i was in medical school at the time if i could give him a prescription for percocet. i laughed and brushed it off, little did i know how foreboding that request was. truly, the greatest live experience i've attended, and all others are jud

blasphemy, blasphemy -- proudly being a self-proclaimed redneck with white trash running through my veins from many generations. great song, great band, not cool to like, so f-ing what. my vote: that peter cetera drivel "I am the man who will fight for your honor". i don't even know if that's the title but you get the point.

i'll third the above responses. if i'm going to see one of my favorites then i'll usually listen to them because that's probably what i would listen to in the car anyway. if it's somebody i'm a casual fan of i'll listen to something in the genre but probably not that band. if i've never heard the band before, i will purposefully not listen to them so that seeing them live will be my first impression. happened for me when dr. dog opened for the black keys. now i'm a huge dr. dog fan.

i've talked to jay a couple of times. the first was after straightaways came out. he seemed genuinely disinterested in talking with anybody around him, fans, bandmates, the wall, etc. the boquist brothers and mike heidorn were great, even excited that we knew some of the same pawn shops that they looked for gear in other cities. i've met quite of the musicians i admire and listen to. most seem genuinely appreciative that people care to come to the shows and sing their lyrics. this includes jeff who was extremely humble and very talkative when we gave him and ken coomer a ride back to the

where? i can't find it on their website or pollstar. if that's the case i won't be driving in to see jay farrar. since i'm southside okc i'll definitely be at the hold steady show.

that's it. does that really say ibanez on the headstock. i mean the shield looks different, i guess, but holy crap that script is pretty close. thanks for the help.

probably the wrong site for this but i can't find any info on the black keys site. it looks like a white sg, but when i saw them live i could have sworn the headstock didn't look gibson/epiphone. if this isn't appropriate wilco forum material, tell me to go away.

i agree. guitars i buy, i want to have forever. and if they play great, who cares about a little age and wear. look at willie nelson's "trigger". i've got the first guitar i have ever owned, a beginner fender that has a great woody sound that i use for slide and open tuning stuff. it's beat to hell and the other day my son found the uncle tupelo sticker that was stuck in anthology reissue and stuck it on it. it's crumpled and goes over the binding but i thought i'd leave it. at least it's uncle tupelo and he could have put easter bunny or dora the explorer stickers.

the guild ones have a duel truss rods, so they take the strain a little better, i think Taylor do it to do these age well even with the dual truss rods? given the history of warpage (kind of a word i guess) with cheaper models, i'm kind of leaning towards saving up for a while and buying one with some better reliability. i'm kind of looking for heirloom guitars that i can pass down to my kids and their kids. in my own bizzaro fantasy land i kind of envision my great grandkids inheriting something like a pre-war martin. i know it won't happen but i'm not interested in trading in guitar

i'm desperately wanting to add a 12 string to my collection. i play primarily folk, country blues, etc. my 6 string guitar is a gibson j45 rosewood that i love. i always thought i wanted a guild 12 string but recently played a breedlove that was great. anybody have any ideas? i would also appreciate ideas in the moderately priced area as i'm not sure i can justify two $2000+ guitars in the same decade.

i'm probably going. they did play at cain's in fall 96 i think. alejandro escovedo opened!!! chickamauga was the only ut song played. i remember being a little disappointed in jay's lack of enthusiasm but i just wasn't aware that that's the way he is at most shows. really, from what i can remember it was a great show. ben harper will be there a couple of days before so it should be a good weekend for music in tulsa.

i'm kind of slow but what do the yes and no before wilco/tweedy in the list above mean? i was at the debut of on and on in tulsa and was pretty underwhelmed. it has really come along way, not my favorite on sbs but it's also not my least favorite wilco song anymore.

i'm pretty sure that there aren't any horns in the song as it was played on the album. it simply sounds like guitar and keys to my relatively untrained ear.

1st album 1st concert Stevie Ray Vaughn at the Brady Theater in Tulsa, OK

i just recently saw clapton at the ford center in okc. not a bad venue, i'm just not fond of arena style shows. he played a ton of derek and the dominos stuff. derek trucks played with him and held his own. doyle bramhall ii was the thirds axe man and considerably outclassed. as good as derek trucks was, when clapton took his turn he truly shamed the rest of them. he presented a very professional but somewhat unemotional performance. the real highlight for me was the all too brief robert cray opening set. the crossroads festival would truly be worth it, i just can't get away for it.
