Sorry, they didn't open with the colloboration - that list is from memory and was just the songs played. They opened with Cars. I really should try and edit that list with that the disclaimer....

Oh, I'm A Wheel, also

Apologies, I ididn't see a topic already started, and I didn't write down the set list, so there will be things missing andI'm not even going to attempt to get the order correct, going from memory here. Warm night, decent, though not sold out, crowd. EDITED POST: Trying to get closer to the actual order, though this is NOT exact: Car's Can't Escape Bull Black Nova Sky Blue Sky Hesitiating Beauty Born Alone Radio Cure Art of Almost Impossible Germany Dawned on Me (What's So Funny 'bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding? (with My Morning Jacket, James/chorus/Tweedy vocals) IATTBYH Heavy

Sorted just on Wilco(or BB & Wilco), my library showed me 791/8664 (9.12%) Smart playlist, match any of: cline, autumn defense, loose fur, wilco, tweedy yielded 826/8664 (9.53%) Same as above, add: uncle tupelo yielded 922/8664 (10.64%) No doubt that is the highest percentage of any "band". As for actual listening, right now it's actually a little lower as I've been going through some new (to me) stuff, or the second pass through newer stuff. But I'd say, in general, I listen about 15% of the time. Old 97's are possibly my most listened to, but I haven't grabbed a lot of concerts, so

Thanks for confirming what I saw at that show. It was definitely uncomfortable for a while last July.... Now, I won't be the one to start the Scranton ATS thread, but I will jump right in when it's mentioned that JT was cranky about all of the chatter. Frankly, I was pissed. I mean, people were actually carrying on yelling conversations across three or four people. But wait, this is about JT's crankiness, not mine. He was cranky tonight, though. At least through the acoustic set.

About 20 minutes or so away from Montclair is a Comfort Inn on US46 in Fairfield. I think it's the cheapest hotel in the area. I do some business in the general area, always stay there. A word of warning, though. If you are, er, fastidious, you may not find the hotel to your liking. I'm not saying it's dirty, it's just well used. But for approximately $55-65, you aren't going to do better. The attached restaurant, Bella Piazza, isn't too bad, either. BYOB.

I know the show isn't sold out, but i thought I'd give someone the chance to unload one. May be hard otherwise. PM me if you have one. Thanks, Mike

Saw something interesting today on this. Santa Barbara Independent interview with Taylor Goldsmith:

Thanks for the responses - I guess I'll give going to the source a shot. Louie - actually, the person who got me started on Lou's is a fan of having the gard baked into the pizza, which I too have become a fan of. However, since my wife was with me on this trip, had to pass on doing that, so it was just a little accompaniment. The stuff I got here is for burgers and sandwiches.

Does anyone know what brand of gardiniere (sp?) is served at Lou Malnati's? The only one I can find locally is Bell View. Meh. TIA.

Yeah, some one to the right of me did had a camera, but it wasn't distracting at all. Not like the people behind us, to the left of us, and directly in front of us who felt the middle of the show was a good time to carry on long, loud conversations. Not to mention the crew trying to fix, then wrapping with caution tape, the chair in front of us.....

Saw two rigs, one dead center in the last row of the first tier, one more to the right about 10 rows closer. Sure there's more....

I'm wondering if it's were you were. We were about 20 rows back on the right (to the right of Pat's mike), and the sound wasn't terrible for Wilco. It was for CO&MVB, though. I've only been to five shows, but I agree, Jeff was acting a little weird. Overall, I thought it was a good show, it was nice to hear the new stuff live.

Before I go for the lawn tix, just thought I'd try for something else. If you can help, please email me: promos (at) primarydatum (period) com Thanks.

I still have the half-finished book laying around here somewhere. It's good, but I couldn't get into as much as I could Homicide. Great mini-series, though....

as has already been said, yes, watch it chronologically. And allow me to make a bold prediction. You say it will take you a year to watch a season. There's a better than good chance it will become your new obsession. Hell, there are even rumors that the show caused a veteran lead man from some band to lose his place in the middle of song he knows all too well.....

A very sincere word of warning - if you watch The Wire, prepare for a lifetime of disappointment - you will find all dramatic television from thereon out lacking. No words can describe how great this show is. Which means, of course, that we (the fans) always try to anyway. Attentive viewing will be richly rewarding, as this is one of those rare shows that will deeply affect how you see the world long after "The Fall" (that's a slightly obscure reference, but you'll get it after watching). I can't think of a single dramatic television show that has had this effect on me, and few movies. Bunk'

OK, a little late to the party on this one, and surprisingly VERY difficult to find for a rental. Good movie, not great, but much better than most schlock out there. Beautiful imagery early on, but it didn't completely draw me in, i.e. I was paying too much attention to the implausibilities. Underwhelming ending. I think I'll always be more critical of this one based on its potential. While it didn't completely misfire, it was agonizingly close to greatness, and that's what makes it most painful. BTW, to the Tropic Thunder fans, I agree with those who thought Robert Downey, Jr. was absolut

Don't get me wrong, I love Yes, and I thought their cover of "Every Little Thing" from their debut was brilliant, but I got America as a bonus track on a Close to the Edge disc. Simon May have loved it, but I thought they completely missed the point. JMO.... And would y'all please stop talking about Mariah Carey! All I can think of is here gawd awful, egotistical screeching during a group song at the 9/11 concert. I think Neil was fronting that song....

May 81: Hitchhiked from Rochester, NY to Santa Barbara, CA and back. Not a real direct route (go figure), but I visited friends in Albany, Chicago, Denver, and Santa Barbara along the way. Technically not a road trip (US Navy), but.... July 86: Turned 21 in northern Pacific between Anchorage and Kodiak. A few days later, we steamed From Juneau, AK to Victoria, BC, mostly via the inland passage, before going into Vancouver. As I was navigation, I got to spend pretty much 24 hours straight on the port wing of the bridge shooting bearings, AKA sightseeing. Oct 95: Pays du Cathar in the foot

Why am I so willing to subject myself to heaps of abuse? One of Us was Joan Osborne Tell Laura... was, I think, Bobby Goldsboro. But if it wasn't, "Honey" has to be on the list. And if terrible versions of good songs count, Yes did an absolutely horrid cover of Simon's "America" that I subjected myself to once. Once......
