  1. I was at that Zak Wylde show at a Great Woods and I was pissed. Dickey had gotten arrested or something after the previous show in Albany. They should have cancelled the Great Woods show. Zak was so out of place, with his bullseye guitar and strange prancing heavy metal act. I felt so ripped off I boycotted the band for several years. I was surprised Rather didn’t ask him about his alcohol abuse and feuding with band members. I always thought that’s what got him kicked out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Very psyched to read the news about the January '70 Fillmore East release.
  3. My number was down in 2018, but here are my faves: Greensky Bluegrass and Billy Strings-HOB Boston. Had never seen them, a buddy insisted I go. What a great night!

  4. To my ears the only good thing about the Vince era were the Hornsby shows. I really hated Vince's sound.
  5. TTB comes on at 8:40. Tonight I'm in the right center Mezz, row C

  8. You too Tim. I'm so used to seeing you in photos with a beard that I had to do a double take! A friend was at the Paradise hoping Tweedy would show up, but not to be.
  9. If I'm remembering correctly he got a round of applause for that "creating" vs. "destructing" talk. I got a kick when he started talking about Richard Thompson during a discussion about guitar proficiency. Jeff produced one of RT's recent albums at the Loft and seems to have had a very good relationship with him. "Richard talked a lot about the Queen." RT played Solid Sound. I wanted to yell out that Richard was playing at the Paradise last night, but I was in the Mezz. I had tickets for both shows. I got the impression that Jeff had no idea. The Tweedy thing ended in time to get over to th
  10. I think he led into that by saying the books answered questions nobody asks him, like did you have good times with Jay. Or something like that. He spoke about this in one of the many book review interviews I've read.
  11. agree, the slideshow was excellent. And acoustic IMTTBYH was worth the price of admission to me (as always)
  12. Jeff was good. He was Jeff I didn't like the interviewer (from WBUR/NPR). She did not seem to know how to approach the evening. She was a detriment to the night to my perceptions. DId you catch Abbi Jacobson in NY? I would have liked to have seen her do this.
  13. "For this is all a dream we dreamed One afternoon long ago"
  14. well, I had a ticket, some stuff going on caused me to sell my ticket yesterday and now I just bought another ticket so I'm going to Jeff Tweedy!
  15. There's a discussion going on over in the Solid Sound '19 group about "Jeff" dropping TMM. Apparently there's nothing in the public domain about this. Also not clear if this refers to just JT or Wilco too. Anyone with knowledge in a position to speak to this?
  16. Lucinda Williams, Car Wheels 20th anniversary tour.
  17. Totally agree about 9-20. It was a synchronicity of good fortune that got me down from Boston that day to 13th row dead center Arista seats. Every listen I give to this show reaffirms how magical the night was. There's never a moment of "well, that sounded better that night than it does now.' I'll differ on what the future held for the band. I thought the Boston '91 run was fantastic. There was no "9-20-90" show (but hey, 9-20 stands alone), but I thought the entire run was spectacular, as did everyone I went with. I always consider Boston '91 as their last great run. But I get that YMMV.
  18. Now playing on Sirius GD channel is MSG 9-20-90. One of my favorites, probably the best single second set I ever caught. Also a lot of GD type great things happened that night to make it one of the most memorable nights for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  19. I can't remember ever seeing a second set LLR. I will have to check the database, but I am drawing a blank on that. I saw zero shows after Boston March 1981 until Providence September 1987.
  20. Thanks for the report, I missed the live stream. It's entirely possible I'm having a "stupid" morning, but I couldn't find the show streaming on the Live From Here site. The most current show is 10/20. But I did find a couple of the songs on the Live from Here channel on YouTube. Some Birds and Let's Go Rain. Unfortunately not Hell is Chrome.
  21. Fair question, and one that goes through my mind with each release. They have been shrewd enough to start each year with a highly desired show that sucks me in for the subscription, and Swing Aud. fits the bill.
