Thanks Dan Lynch! From this longtime friend of Mr. Salat (we've been to some shows together many many years ago).

Too bad about this news, saw some fantastic Furthur shows. I always liked JK's guitar playing and singing, never got why some folks were down on him. But all in all, over all the years,Phil and Friends was always the best take on the songbook I thought. As witnessed by this past weekend's shows. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You did the 5 nights! Awesome, so jealous. I couch toured the webcast last night. Thought it was great, the band and Nels' participation and contributions. I was expecting him to only sit in for a segment, so was surprised to see him from the beginning. Nels played a couple times with the Allmans at the Beacon and I thought it was like fitting a square peg in a round hole. With Phil's band he fit right in, in a Nels kind of way. He particularly smoked Franklin's! I don't know who that Lebo guy is, but he's a great player. Gets that acoustic sounding like an electric for sure. And Joe

I bought the regular flac. I've never been able yet to get the 24 bit hd thing figured out. Burned audio from the flacs, playing now on my Rotel, sounds great. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Allmans final show Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

By now you probably know Butch was an original member of the band. BTW, the final show is available foe download at ABBLive.com. I listened to most of it on Sirius while driving to Portchester, gonna make the purchase as soon as I finish my morning coffee and pre-order the Portchester Road Cases.

Not having been at the Lupo's show, I always say that about the next show at the Orpheum. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

When I was following the Twitter feed last night, I saw a Tweet from a female who tweeted that she had just been "shushed" at the Wilco show. I couldn't believe she was complaining about that, and wanted to Tweet her back to STFU, but decided not to get into a twitter war with some person i don't know about a show I wasn't even at. But still, can you believe it? I'm going to find that tweet. I have to say the balcony on Wednesday was very quiet, there were no talkers. Everyone in rapt attention. The Tuesday night audience recording has too much audience chatter.

Caught one show (Wednesday), I keep telling myself to be thankful for that (given that I live outside Boston), but crap, I look at these setlists and can't help but kick myself for not working this out to see multiple nights. The old Deadhead in me always went to multiple nights in the same city. 89 songs in 3 nights, that is amazing to me, I don't know how they do that. Six musicians knowing all their parts and lyrics for 89 intricately and expertly played songs. Music savants.

Two Wilco shows and then the Phil run. That is how to live my friend! Color me jealous. Can you give us a link to the video?

Geez, and I made all those requests for Summer Teeth for Wednesday! My internet must be slow, those requests obviously didn't arrive until today. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The "you're a much better looking crowd tonight" banter got a little awkward, as Jeff noted. I thought his "the show will never end, we'll keep playing and then take a break and be here tomorrow" was pretty funny. While the crowd may have been less upbeat than the previous night (I was only there last night), the crowd was quick to react when he hinted the show will end at some point.

I thought something happened and a song got cut. Nels switched guitars and was ready to play another song as Tweedy put his guitar down and the band walked off. Too bad, would have loved to have heard I'm Always in Love.

If anybody's looking for a place to meet and eat and be merry before the show tonight, we went to Coal's pre-show last night. On N. Main, very close by. Great beers (beer and wine only, so you boozers beware!) and excellent thin crust pizzas and salads. Small place, get there by 6:00 or so.

Like Wilco Me says, make your plans. Getting festival tickets is the least of the problems.

Back in MA, after my first visit to the Cap. I was sitting 4th row of the balcony, dead center. I would have preferred standing and dancing on the floor for Wilco, but my buddy got the tickets and as a vet of many Cap shows really wanted to sit in the lower balcony. That may work better for a Phil show to sit and take it all in, but for Wilco... Oh well, I danced and rocked in my seat all night. The sound is superb in the Cap. Totally what I expected, Peter Shapiro had phenomenal sound systems at Lockn'. The crowd was "mellow" upstairs, very few people standing, but I would say the crow

What a great back to back run for you! Kicking myself I made 2 separate trips down from Boston and didn't plan well enough to catch the last allmans show and then Wilco in a single trip. Also kicking myself that I'm not staying for another Wilco show. Have fun tonight everybody! Still plenty of songs to be played. Should be great. Although I'm sure last night was the best looking audience night of all

Some quick hits as I recover with a post show beer and baseball: Wow! to both Wilco and the Capitol Theatre. On paper, preferred tuesday night list, but Every song was played as if they wanted it to be the best ever. First time at the Cap, as great a venue as I expected it to be. Wilco is so on top of their game, its jawdropping. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk

Great way to drive! I landed at the Portchester hotel a little into the third set. Thought about staying in the car but I came inside. Great show! David Fricke has a nice piece about it in Rolling Stone http://www.rollingstone.com/music/live-reviews/the-allman-brothers-band-take-a-final-bow-at-epic-beacon-theatre-show-20141029

Right! How did I miss that??? That is not being "technical" I just looked, I came up with 20 because someone else commented that it was the 20 year anniversary. No excuse. Guess I should take this topic down. I don't know how to change the topic heading, I can either "lock" it or "delete" the topic, but can't edit it. I'm getting in the car to hear to Portchester, so I guess it will stay up as the 20th Anniversary. My bad, so embarrassing !

My understanding from the way they announced the times today is that they are playing the entire show. We'll soon see. I'll be in my car at noon ready to listen as I drive to Portchester.

According to Wilco's post on Facebook, today marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Being There. Surely a historical event that deserves its own topic here on VC! Still recall my first listen. This album never gets old to me. Consistently blows my mind each time I listen to it today as much as it did 20 years ago. Hope they give it a good run at the Cap tonight. Admin edit: While Wilco are celebrating their 20th anniversary (1st show: 11-17-94) Being There is celebrating its 18th year. A bit confusing. I fixed the thread title for you, wrp.

"By pushing the show into October 29 they ended the night on the 43rd anniversary of Duane Allman’s passing." http://www.relix.com/news/detail/allman_brothers_take_final_bow_at_beacon_theatre_with_three_set_show
