The High Heat

Worth the 3 hour ride! I was really impressed with Bingham. He really laid it down! Still not into MMJ now that I've seen them live, although I like 'Golden' and was pleased they opened with it. Jeff was just damn giddy during 'The Weight' and that was before he got to shake Dylan's hand in front of witnesses. Just having Dylan say his name on stage was probably too much for Jeff to handle with any kind of dignity. Haha!

Mila Kunis. Even better if she'll stay for breakfast.

Ok. I didn't know that. But Henley and Frey were in Linda Ronstandt's band before forming the Eagles and then going solo themselves; is that correct?

Joe Walsh

Had a mix playing and The Traveling Wilburys' "Where Were You Last Night" came on, causing me to think that Jeff Tweedy would sound great exchanging verses with Bob Dylan on this song live. Perhaps Jeff could help revive the old band, taking on the moniker Doby Wilbury!

I was searching the JAF section for something specific and I came across this quote from Lynch in a thread about making a Wilco mix for a friend: "Posted 16 March 2008 - 02:33 AM I just introduced a friend to Wilco by borrowing him my YHF album and he loved it immediately." Sorry Todd, even someone like George Harrison can fall prey to subconscious memory. At least you won't be sued over this.

Elvis played bass on one recording: Pretty sure he's goofing, but I'm sure he hung in there:

What Light is a rock song?

Anyone can hit .333 over a three week period. Why should it be any different for a 37-year-old? Ortiz is putting up the same numbers he did last year.

Catching Up With Otis Nixon http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/story/22172292/otis-nixon-arrested-in-cherokee-county?clienttype=generic&smartdevicecgbypass He's still not quite Lenny Dykstra, but at least he's trying.

Angel Hernandez has been a bad ump for a long time. He was acting crew chief that night, with younger umpires on his crew. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall with the other guys saying, "Ah...ahhh...yeah...you're right Mr. Hernandez...it hit...the...wall...ok...sure." I'm not sure there'd be a different result if Joe West, the actual crew chief, had been there that night. Got to be the worst crew in the game, although last night's Angels-Astros crew are a contender.

I'd love to see the full length out takes!

Other than the first Mermaid, Misunderstood was the first Wilco song I heard. The first minute of that song galvanized me to Wilco. A true turning point in my musical tastes.

You're welcome. A security guard near me chuckled a couple of times when Dylan's voice popped trying to stretch out a lyric. He got a few "Not cool, dude" looks, that's for sure. The amphitheater sits across the street from the police station, a block from a fire station, and has an elevated Amtrak line curving across the background. I sure wouldn't go see a quiet performer there.

I may have been 2nd row, but I was far right side. I couldn't notice the cops as I was sitting very close to where the constant stream of people were running back and forth to the beer stand, and, of course, the ushers have to check their tickets each time (basically there was a checkpoint five feet from me). I tried not to get too distracted by it though. I did enjoy the show very much. It was great to hear Dylan use his "recording voice" rather than to hear him continuing trying to do something we all know he cannot. I'm even more looking forward to seeing him in Va. Beach this summer becaus

I'm not really good at writing reviews, but someone asked. Dawes were great, real tight. Two songs into Dylan's set they came and took seats in the second row to enjoy Bob. Eventually they ended up against the rail in front of the stage, but I don't understand why they did so much talking. You'd think they know better. When I saw Dylan two years ago his band was spread out, played like awesome hired guns, and Bob's voice was incomprehensible (although I did enjoy the show because I'm a fan). Last night they played more like an organic band. They were basically in a circle (taking on the

They could never be on the same of the aisle at the same time.

I think Sara Gilbert looks like Jeff Tweedy, but I've never seen her in one of my grilled-cheese-and-Pringles sammiches. Thank GOODNESS!!!

Since Dylan changed his mind I had to take my camera back to the car. I couldn't even use the iPhone for pics because I was sitting right near the stage and there was a small herd of ushers and security right near me.

Actually I think I saw a teleprompter in one of Bruce's DVD concerts. I'm ok with it. Some people have bad memory skills. He's probably just covering his denim-wearing ass.

I didn't see Springsteen using teleprompters when I saw him last October. Dude rarely stands in one place. How's he pulling that off? Saw Dylan tonight. He had a book atop his keyboard that he kept flipping through before each song. I'm assuming it was sheet music because he didn't utilize the book when he wasn't playing keyboard.

Maybe it's just because Dylan likes to jerk people around. Ticket taker when seeing my camera: "I'm sorry. When he got here, he changed his mind." Oh Bob, you devious genius!
