I had no idea this same article is in the liner notes of DP 31. I've been holding onto this newspaper since 1974, its made every move with me. I never bought this DP release because they cut up the show and didn't release it in its entirety, so with such an excellent soundboard in circulation never felt the need to get it.

Love of Music Declining With Age?
worldrecordplayer replied to Vacant Horizon's topic in Someone Else's Song
My age is getting up there, but not my love of music. In fact, the opposite. I find myself more and more just wanting to stay home and listen to music then go out with friends, most of whom in my current life are not music fans, a situation I have never had and frustrates me to no end. Over the last few years I've spent some money and upgraded my home system with a new turntable, cd player and now new (used) speakers. The system rocks, which is why I never want to leave my house. No Spotify, sonos, Pandora or other subscription music bullshit for me (at least not at home). As for new mus -

Yeah, its time! Not sure what they mean about a digital pre-order? Isn't Vimeo a streaming site?- 119 replies

The earlier chatter about Roosevelt Stadium 8-6-74 caused me to dig through my GD memorabilia and pull out this long piece about the Philly and Jersey City shows from some underground newspaper (they don't have those anymore). I've saved this all these years and was able to copy to 8 1/2 x 11 and scan it to a pdf., so in case anyone has some extra time (and strong eyes), it's an interesting read, and a good artifact of the times. Only thing is I can't figure out how to attach the pdf file here, I don't think I can, but I have it if anyone wants it.

Nick Offerman Wants to Marry Jeff Tweedy
worldrecordplayer replied to worldrecordplayer's topic in Just A Fan
Was the Salon piece I linked the entire Tweedy chapter, or is there more in the book? -
Loved this piece by Nick Offerman "Jeff Tweedy is really nice. Jeff Tweedy is really smart. And Jeff Tweedy is really, really cute. He’s what the young ladies of a bygone era would refer to as a “dreamboat.” For my money, he’s also the preeminent American singer-songwriter of my generation. Finally, I would add that I am in love with him. We are getting married. The end." http://www.salon.com/2015/06/07/nick_offerman_jeff_tweedy_is_the_best_songwriter_of_my_generation_and_i_want_to_marry_him/ http://www.salon.com/2015/06/07/nick_offerman_jeff_tweedy_is_the_best_songwriter_of_my_

We're you hearing the other stage during Ryan Adams? I read he was a little pissed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes, and the Garcia birthday, 8-1-73 show. And the 8-476 show, which I also attended. To say they always played well at that old pit of a stadium is an understatement.

I can raise my hand and say "Yes." My first proper GD show, just a short time after this Chicago show, 8-6-74 at Roosevelt Stadium. Ended up being the tour closer. I say "ended up" because the show was originally scheduled for before the Philly show, but was rained out (while everyone was in the stadium and all chemically tuned up). Which was fortunate for me, because I had to miss the original date as my family was driving to Pittsburgh for my grandfather's wedding. We fucking drove right past Jersey City. Picture a sulking 16 year old in the back seat, furious that all his friends were

Cape Cod was a killer show. I remember it well, both for the music and the police encounter in the parking lot!

What Live Wilco are you listening to now?
worldrecordplayer replied to BobDylan'sBeard's topic in Just A Fan
I listened to that recently, I was in the house for that show. Currently in the midst of Winterlude night 5. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -
I'm holding out and hoping the will eventually sell individual shows from the 30 box, like they did with the Europe box.

I was in attendance at 3 of these shows: 10/27/79 3/27/93 10/1/94

I just listened to all 3 discs of this over the last couple of days, and watched some of the DVD again. Love this show. I do not for one second sign on to the "Jerry sucked post-'82" or whatever view, but I certainly respect everyone's right to their own opinion. My opinion is I saw a good number of fantastic shows in the '87-94 period, Jerry included.

A leak! Did this list come from Snowden?

Shortest Distance/Longest distance for a Wilco/Jeff show?
worldrecordplayer replied to remphish1's topic in Just A Fan
Longest- 177 miles from home in Needham MA to Cap Theatre in Portchester Shortest-about 12 miles from home to numerous Boston shows -
Interesting, I say that 1990 MSG run was a historically great run. One of the last, but still a killer run for me. With second set of 9-20-90 being a pinnacle set. Boston 1991 another historically great run, maybe the last great run.
-
That entire show...
-
Have you not heard the second set of that 1990 Branford show (the Nassau one)? It's a highlight show, for sure. Starting right off the bat with the Eyes opener. Really a spectacular show. The nadir of the band? For me, '93-95 clearly. Never a fan of Vince, but at least in '90-'91 we had Hornsby playing piano. After he left Vince alone and Garcia falling apart in front of our eyes....was very sad to behold. I'm expecting Trey to be singing a lot of the Jerry tunes.

Inclusion of the 9-18-87 MSG show, and the pre-release of the Morning Dew from that show, speaks well of this box! One of my all time favorite second sets. A very good soundboard has circulated for years, and not a video of that show is up on YouTube. I'm not going to buy the box, I have no room for all those discs, but I think its great they're doing this.
