PA stars

I was right in front of the very enthusiastic celery crowd. Here's some video I shot last night, since there seems to be some controversy over Misunderstood Moderator edit: Wilco doesn't allow videotaping of their shows, so direct links to audience videos are not permitted on Via Chicago Poster's Edit: Sorry about that- thanks for letting me know.

Great venue- very small, good acoustics, and nice people working there. $4 mixed drinks, $3 beers and they let you take them back to your seats- I felt so trusted (and trustworthy, of course). I would have liked to see the crowd standing more during the main set, but they were appreciative either way.

anyone else find it amusing that they're playing the same day as Foo Fighters (who Jeff spoke ill of at various shows after the Grammys)?

just a taste (30 seconds) of shot in the arm: shot from the (non-standing) front row of the Loge with my kid's digital- still not too bad. also some pix from the show (not very good ones) followed by some from Red Bank last year (much better, due to 4th row seats): http://www.flickr.com/photos/16860765@N02/

still looking!

another bump

bump!

PM me if you have 3 extras available- Thanks! for me, my brother-in-law and his fiancee- Wilco tix- the perfect wedding gift!

The Hold Steady tonight in Philly.

Funny, I still have mine from Philly- I couldn't get a refund for some reason. Want to buy one?

The Clash- Sept. 7-8, 1982- Boston Orpheum Theater- recorded as part of "From Here to Eternity" live album. Joe Strummer went into the crowd one of those nights to fight a security guard. Kinda crazy show. U2- Boston Orpheum Theater- 1982?- Bono climbed into the balcony- I thought those boys were going to be big... Live Aid- JFK stadium- 1985- It was a long hot day. The Who- Philly Spectrum- 12/11/79- General Admission show just a week after the Cincinnati show. No one got hurt at this one. Replacements- Philly Tower Theater-1989- sitting in the front row of the balcony with our feet o

Thanks everyone- quite a range of opinions. Based on the thread, I'll have to take a fistful of old Steve Earle CDs in the car with me tomorrow- it's been awhile since I've listened to him. I'll have to say the Tom Waits cover was very disappointing.

Has anyone heard the new Steve Earle album? I haven't checked it out and was wondering what people thought of it. Thanks!

Just joined the board- nice to see there are some Bruce fans around here. I saw the 2 shows in Philly this weekend and Reason to Believe was definitely worth the drive (though I wasn't coming from Canada). Rumor has it they'll be back next year, so I expect Florida will get their shows.
