Most of the Bob Dylan official bootlegs are great.

The Springsteen Record at the Hammersmith Odeon from '75. I marvel at the tightness of the E Street Band

Weld by Neil Young and Crazy Horse

Whatever. That video is going to be a huge pain int he ass for him. Probably cost him the election (partly)

John K Samson. He once called himself a "sloth-like person" and i totally agree. But he was really nice to chat with.

yup.

so what?

holy shit you guys...

Some people tend to talk AT the crowd and not with them you know? Jeff Tweedy talks with the crowd. Guy Garvey from Elbow does too. I've noticed on some videos E from the EELS talks AT the crowd. He knows what he's going to say each night and just says it.

i tend to take pride in my stage banter when I play out since it's something I always remember from shows.

One of my favorite bits of banter I've been involved with was Elbow at the Paradise last September. People were hollering out songs and I said "Play Independent Women!" (their cover of the Destiny's Child song haha) Guy stopped and looked at me "do we look like an international traveling juke box? thats a great request but we're not going to play that fucking song"

I'm glad this is cutting off at the 5th season. Great character arc. If it went on for longer, it'd get real boring.

This season so far hasn't given me as many "OH SHIT!" moments like seasons 3-4. But I'm enjoying the hell out of it.

Anybody else notice that all the wives on most AMC shows are total bitches? Breaking Bad, Mad Men, Walking Dead etc...

To hell with all of you. Wilco (the Album) is great.

Yeah. Do it!

I got the iPhone case yesterday. It's really awesome! It makes the phone a little more bulky. But thats expected. my ONLY gripe is the bamboo/carvings grabs the lint in my pocket and it get stucks in all the nooks and crannies

Pretty sure Tweedy wears that damn jacket every show (Boston last september)

really bold choices. I'm actually really excited about it

anybody else notice Leroy Bach is playing tonight (the 24th)?

lol

^ on the Sunken Treasure DVD you can see him watching a Stones DVD on the bus.

D: !!!

So I am currently in the throes of planning a batchelor party for my brother. He's not the stripper kind of guy (anymore) and I'm looking around for something fun to do before we hit the town for dinner and drinks... Anybody from or around there know of anything?

Signed,

Mr. Worst Best Man

yeah nobody listens. It bummed me out to see so many people watching the show through a cellphone screen. They missed out.

where YOU the guy who kept putting the 'preflash' red light on the wall and then flashing all on the projections and shit? Flash photography was rampant last night. Pics look awesome though!

This show was sensory over load. My ONLY gripe is the surround system. I was sitting right next to one of the points and it played just a little ahead of the music so it could bounce off the walls of the stadium in time... It certainly bugged the shit out of me.

^ hell yeah! be sure to post some!

Roger Waters

Seeing him tomorrow at Fenway park!

TONIGHT! Billy Bragg at the Music Hall in Portsmouth NH!

Mumford and Sons is also doing one of their Stopover things here in Portland ME. Dawes and St. Vincent are playing.

Why do people knock this album so much? I don't think it's their best record but still.

A friend sent me this:

 

I dont get it... Cartoons like this make no sense.

looks like John doesn't know how to play pool.

Sebago Brewing Company is a place in Portland I frequent. I always hear a Wilco song on their radio when I'm there.
