I'm not much for Buddy Miles playing. I prefer the Hendrix/Cox/Mitchell line-up. Some of the releases are terrible, and some are great.

I've never watched any of the Weir Here broadcasts. This one may be interesting.

Rick Nielsen on American Pickers. I didn't know the dude had a Cheap Trick Museum in Rockford. It looks like he has kept everything he has ever touched.

That was the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame fiasco. I wish they would show the BBC documentaries on the BBC America Channel. That would be great.

They seem to come and go. I usually watch most of them myself. I don't really know anything about Graham Parker, but I'd watch it. I just watched the Blondie BBC documentary (from 2006) - it's been on YouTube since 2011.

It is somewhat odd, but I buy them all - and always will. And it is great to have real liner notes to read.

It seems Rounder does not have much of a distribution system. Or is it that these stores are just not going to carry any cds unless the artists is real popular and well known. We have a Best Buy and a Barnes and Noble here where I live. If Barnes and Noble has it, the cd is probably 20 bucks. I didn't bother checking either one of those places. Maybe I should have.

I saw this on Billboard.com: That's pretty amazing. According to Eddie Kramer, this is the last studio out-takes album they are going to release.

As I have said before - all the record stores are gone here where I live. I have not bought a new cd in a record store in many years now. Recently, I learned that there is an FYE at the mall here. I think I use to know that, but seldom ever go to the mall so I forgot about it. I went there today to pick-up the new Hendrix, which I figured they would have. They did. And then I remembered the new Son Volt cd was out. So I looked around. No luck. Since FYE is a chain place, the person behind the counter kept coming over to me every few minutes and bugging me. I finally asked her about the new S

I have a feeling he won't be playing Monkee songs. I think the reviews I read of his shows a few months ago indicated he was playing songs from his solo albums, and doing a lot of talking in between songs.

It should be interesting.

I've seen photos of him where the guitar was bigger than he was. And we was playing in some club somewhere.

I just ran across a nice interview with Mike Nesmith in Goldmine. He is doing a tour.

I think he left due to suffering from tinnitus. I seem to recall reading that somewhere. It was Derek who replaced him in the band.

That makes me think of Joe Satriani's time in Deep Purple. He's great at what he does, as is Zak, but I am not really into the music either of them makes.

There use to be some audio from the show up on Youtube. It's probably still there. Jimmy Herring was also in the band around that time (I think). Also - Jack Pearson during the couple of years that Warren was out of the band.

I think I read about that show in the book: Midnight Riders: The Story of the Allman Brothers Band. If not there, then I must have read about it in an issue of Hittin' The Note. If you Google Zak Wylde and Allman Brothers Band - you'll find some stories about the show.

I've read about that Zak show.

Set list from last night - March 6:

I think they invited him to play with the band at the Grammys, or whatever it was not too long ago. I think he changed his mind at the last minute. Or something like that.

I suppose where I find it odd is due to the person singing it. It's just because Dickey is the voice of those songs. Not Gregg or Warren. Plus they did have a rather hard parting.

I think that a good way to put it - signature songs.

I think it's a shame they don't play more of the last album they made. Although - I see Desdemona was played last night.

Last night's set list:

Hearts and Minds (whole video) - on CMT.
