  1. I was there, so I should be able to share some words. It was a long day and night of music (was still there listening to Bustle at 3:00 a.m.), and I didn't write anything down so best of memory of songs played in no particular order: Misunderstood Shouldn't Be Ashamed Shot Impossible Germany Red Eyed I Got You Laminated Cat Handshake California Stars Forget the Flowers Jesus Kingpin Whole Love Dawned on Me A pretty standard festival set , but make no mistake, Wilco was great. A very well played set, high energy and very tight. We were down front, don't know how they were received by the
  2. Wilco! (Been too long since I've been able to post that in this topic.) Oh yeah, also Gary Clarke, Jr., Tedeschi Trucks Band, Phil and Friends, Widespread with Stevie Winwood, Tom Petty, and late night acoustic Hot Tuna and Bustle in Your Hedgrow. Can't wait for today to happen. I'd better go back to sleep.
  3. Just got back to our hotel in Lynchburg. Tonight/last night or whichever night it was was awesome. Can't wait for tomorrow/today.
  4. My buddy scored us 4th row center balcony. I would have gone for the floor but he wanted seats.
  5. Very manageable in the VIP area up front. It's a large space in front of both stages. When we ventured outside the VIP area it was crowded for a while but then thinned out quickly as we move away from the stage. I'm no expert on festivals, been to JazzFest a number of times and all Solid Sounds, this festival is run so well. The side by side stages are genius- music never stops for a second all day/night long. The sound system is the best I've heard (maybe since the Wall of Sound but I don't really remember that too well). Kudos to Peter Shapiro. And the lineup is getting better for m
  6. I'm here too, counting the hours until Wilco's first set but still taking it all in. I 'm expecting no repeats over the 3 hours of Wilco sets. We'll see!
  7. Day 2 at Lockn'. I'm most looking forward to the sets by Drive By Truckers and Phil and Friends (with Warren, Scofield, Modeski and Russo). And 2 more String Cheese sets.
  8. They are onstage now but haven't seen any songs referenced on Twitter yet. I take that back, I see a report of Poor Places
  9. This happens for every single show I ever get tickets for, 99% of which are from Live Nation/Ticketmaster. This is not an issue limited to Front Gate.
  10. Tried for Cap Theater pre-sale, nothing but GA floor, which I passed on. Pre-sales are usually limited quantities, will give it another try on Friday.
  11. This is a good read: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/03/arts/music/jeff-tweedy-of-wilco-records-with-his-son-spencer.html?_r=2
  12. To think that in 3 days, on Saturday, I'll be able to post "Wilco" in the "Live!Tonight!" topic, and then again the next day, has me beyond psyched. Even though it looks like it could be wet. Three hours of Wilco at Lockn', that's pretty much "An Evening With." I'm expecting no repeats. Psyched.
  13. An Evening With! That just substantially increased the chances I will make the drive down to Portchester from Boston. I've been wanting to get to a show at the Cap since it re-opened.
  14. Knoxville, Raleigh and 2 nights at the Capitol Theater in Portchester round out the announcement
  15. they were selling tickets at the door. Crowded, not packed.
  16. I thought of you! And that Dave guy too.

  18. That's funny, some guy named Dave Maloney posted on their FB page entry for tonight's show: 'Man, would I love to hear The Have Nots tonight!"
  19. I should say, I don't mind spending $40 to see X. Looking forward to this show, love the Sinclair.
  20. Me too. I thought $40 was a cheap ticket.
  21. You are correct, they did "suspend" the liquor license for violations last year, but that suspension is under appeal and does not take effect if upheld until after the festival this year. Apparently, the cops were all over the place last year filming people getting high and drinking (shocking I know), which is what led to the suspension. I'm a little bummed about the police presence.
  22. Beer will be flowing this year. May be an issue for 2015, but not this year.
