Ooops. Thanks for the clarification. My brother was in Normal. I saw them there 4-24-1978 https://archive.org/details/gd78-04-24.sbd.mattman.20605.sbeok.shnf

Hey, I was at the Northern Illinois University (Normal, IL) show. I was at college in St. Louis and my brother did a year of graduate school in Normal. I remember going, but don't know if I've listened since. https://archive.org/details/gd77-10-29.sbd.kempa.280.sbeok.shnf I've had an excellent recording of 11/6/77 forever. That show always stands out to me for the first set, bookended by my favorite Half-Step and then Jack Straw, and Music to close. Just smoking versions of each. Not that the second set is too shabby I've always had a good copy, but I'm glad to get the HDCD treatment of t

I’ll be going to the Fri and Sat shows at the Orpheum. Already had Hot Tuna tix for Thursday, I wouldn’t miss that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Aragon, wow. Didn't know that place still existed. I went to college in St. Louis all the way back in the '70's. Made several trips to Chicago for shows, mostly for the Dead at the Uptown. One trip had us at the Aragon Ballroom for Hot Tuna and Santana. It was pretty much a pit then. I assumed it had met rhe wrecking ball by now.

That's a good pick, for sure.

Agree with your comments about Trey during Mountain Jam. I don't know if deferential is the word that came to mind; I felt during the post bass solo segment he may not have been familiar enough with the double harmonized guitar lines that are such a signature of the song (and the Allmans sound). Having said that, looked like a great sit-in for Delta Lady and Mountain Jam. My huge regret is that we had tickets for this show, but then my wife changed her mind and didn't want to make the trip down from Boston (for personal family reasons and especially since they are doing 3 nights here in Decem

Here's a couple of different video versions from the usual video tapers, starting with Ali (the first has Susan introducing Nels): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy8XgOt6luQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_dDn3wG20w

That is strange. But, since I already own recent 180 g. vinyl versions of each (A.M. being the orange vinyl Record Week or something like that version), the absence of the Troubadour set helped me make a decision and I'll go with the cd versions.

Here it is on Rolling Stone: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/premieres/wilco-details-reissues-of-first-two-lps-am-being-there-w508163

That listing for Being There has to be incorrect. A single vinyl disc for $79.98? Obviously BT is already a 2 disc vinyl set. I figure there will be a BT release for $79.98, but it will be way more than a single vinyl. I'll be in for all of these.

I don't know how I freakin missed that. That would have been my first choice.

One way to think about Tom Petty today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX2ncOG6Sg0

Looks like this is a true story: https://twitter.com/accesshollywood/status/914931318319808512

Hoping this is #fakenews from TMZ, but here it is: Petty found in full cardiac arrest http://www.tmz.com/2017/10/02/tom-petty-found-unconscious-full-cardiac-arrest/

On the topic of the sitting/standing divide, I usually check the Twitter machine on the nights Wilco is playing to see some photos, videos and share in the joy of those attending. When I did that last night I noticed some sitters complaining about some standers, in real time while the show was going on. These folks were way more interested in commenting on the standing v. sitting issue than anything about the show. Really people? Full disclosure, I'm firmly in the camp of "it's a rock show, everyone should stand and move," especially on the floor. (but don't get agitated at me, you sitting pe

My buddy Bob got a good recording of this set. I'm listening to Freak Train right now. It's up on btree.etree. I can hook you up if you don't do the btree thing.

Handshake Drugs! Is that the first time played in a very long time? I've been missing that tune.

What were they doing in 1999, and what are they doing now??? I love that album. Most of my Wilco listening is live stuff, but Summerteeth gets regular play. Great album to my ears.

Nice! Not on that board, but I will be getting there pronto. Wonder if they are also posted at the FB fan page Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm not familiar with all his albums, but I really like Wakin on a Pretty Daze (especially the almost title song) and b'lieve I'm goin down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd0K76H7sU8

I was fortunate to catch his pop up set inside one of the galleries. Actually, I liked it better than his main set. I have some photos from the pop up set, but the files are too large to share here (1mb max).
