  1. I have to say re: the Veneto show that Bobby's playing is sublime.
  2. The sound mix is fantastic. My wife is out of town, so I occupied myself tonight by watching the entire movie and the bonus piece, all at concert level volume. I've had bootleg copies of SSDD for years, VHS, DVD, but this is masterful. What a great night.
  3. Got my box today, the Dwork piece is a short 2 page essay, haven't read it but it appears to be something new from his lengthy essay in the Taper's Compendium and Duprees. Can't wait to get these discs spinning.
  4. Great listing off the top of your head! I've got some listening to do.
  5. Ditto to all that. I've never made it to Chicago for a Wilco show or one of the Tweedy solo benefit shows, which I very much want to do, but being in MA and able to easily drive to all three SS's has not been a bad tradeoff.
  6. A stream of the Elvis Costello and Roots show from Brooklyn Bowl the other night, here: http://www.wfuv.org/audio/archives/fuv-live/elvis-costello-and-roots-live-brooklyn-bowl-2013
  7. Is this what you're referring to, the Radiolab tour coming to Boston? I didn't see On Fillmore at SS, don't know much about this, but Glenn being my favorite drummer I'll show up. http://www.radiolab.org/live/ Our new live tour is coming to a city near you this fall!Cataclysmic destruction. Surprising survival. In this new live stage performance, Radiolab turns its gaze to the topic of endings, both blazingly fast and agonizingly slow. With their signature blend of storytelling, science, and music, hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich romp through hundreds of millions of years of history
  8. The Dwork essay in the Taper's Compendium was derived from his very long piece in Dupree's Diamond News, they had previously published a big article on this show, the "best GD show ever" or something like that. I still have it in my collection. My SSDD is due to arrive today. My wife going away to her h.s. reunion this weekend, I know what I'll be doing Saturday night.
  9. I've seen some outstanding Furthur shows. I missed them this summer in Boston as I was on vacation (I think the same for last summer too). Would prefer to see them than not, so hope it's only a hiatus and not the end. I love Joe Russo's drumming (would love to see him take Joe Russo's Almost Dead on the road, as a double bill with Bustle!), and John's playing too. I also don't get the "fake Jerry" pejorative, Other than Box, there's nothing I would rather hear Phil sing than John. Also seen many amazing Phil and Friends shows, so hope he takes that on the road and doesn't just do residenc
  10. Nice! All the best with all that. Staying in theme, this past spring I had to have a cardiac catheterization procedure. I was more than a little uptight (turns out to be a very easy procedure) as I entered the procedure room. Between patients one of the techs was playing opera on Pandora on his phone. I *hate*opera, but said something nondescript about having music on. The nurse asked if I wanted to listen to anything in particular, I said Wilco so she set up Wilco station on Pandora and I rocked to Wilco while they noodled around inside my chest. Really helped me get through that!
  11. Listened to the 2-13-70 Dark Star on my drive to work this morning, for like the umpteenth million time in my life. Still blows me away, what a beautiful piece of music.
  12. I have this, it's a great collection in my book. Haven't had it on in a while, but looking at the track list I remember that the Greatest Story simply *rages*! Got my notice that Sunshine Daydream has shipped. Now hammering the UPS tracking site like every 30 minutes
  13. Loved that Tweedy Sunday afternoon set, what a sweet way to wrap up a fantastic weekend. I couldn't say it was my highlight of all SS though, tough for anything to top the all request show, or any of the Wilco sets, even the Friday night in the pouring rain show. I'll just say it was my favorite non-Wilco SS set.
  14. Yes, Jeff Garlin's entire podcast series was recorded in front of a live audience at Largo.
  15. She's much taller and broad across the shoulders than I expected. And she did her entire set barefoot. Then when she came out during theAllmans set for The Weight she was wearing very high heels, she was towering on the stage. She had no problem dancing in those heels.
  16. These words bum me out (in reference to the ACL show): "Note that these will be the last Wilco shows for many months."
  17. The Allmans and Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. I've never heard a note of Grace Potter's music (but I've seen a lot of photos of her ).
  18. Oh man, what I wouldn't give for a Tweedy show in *Boston*
  19. I saw that and watched those clips last night. Love watching the Bonds footage, I was there for 2 or 3 of those shows. Wild times in Times Square! I was outside the night the fire department shut the show down for overcrowding, or not having a permit or something like that. What a band they were before Combat Rock era. Don't know if I will shell out the $$ for this box. Haven't seen a price.
