Didn't know you were there? Working the pit? I was not far off the rail. Publishing your photos?

That was a Rock Show! I brought a bunch of friends, none of us had seen them, they lived up to all our very high expectations. Right from the English Oceans opener through the Grand Canyon feedback drenched closer. Thought BT was ok, good for an opener, wouldn't rush to see them as a headliner. They did a great a Rocky Mountain Way.

Gregg didn't perform last night. Reported to have bronchitis. Sounds like it was a great show anyway. http://www.jambase.com/Articles/121124/Gregg-Allman-Misses-Allman-Brothers-Band-Show

Soulive was great. Seen them lots of times in Boston, NOLA and DC, but never on their home turf during their own Bowlive run. Great vibe from the get go. Fantastic venue.

Back from Brooklyn in time for a Rock Show in Boston tonite. Blitzen Trapper and Drive-By Truckers. First time for me for both bands. Looking forward to it. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk

Thanks Tim.

can someone let me know what the set times were? How long did Blitzen Trapper play? I see at the Richmond show DBT did 32 songs, which seems like a very long set after an opener. Did BT play a full hour opening set? Thanks.

I saw Muscle Shoals recently. Thought it was excellent. I've always known of the studio, but was unaware there was a house band, like the MG's in Memphis. Great movie. Skydog. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk

Great to hear. Catching the show next Tuesday. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk

Thanks for all the words on Blitzen Trapper. I'll see if I can wrestle my gang in early to catch them.

Finally making it down for a show at Brooklyn Bowl. Soulive, with tonight's announced guests Susan Tedeschi, Joe Russo and Bill Evans. Maybe a Derek Trucks showing after the Allmans finish at the Beacon? #Bowlive5!

I think all that lauding and mystique has substantially dissipated over the years. He's mostly seen as an oddball now, at least in the circles I travel in and things I read.

Seeing this show in Boston on Friday (after a trip to Brooklyn for Bowlive). Be sure to let us know how it goes. I saw a recent setlist, 35 songs. Don't know anything about Blitzen Trapper, deciding whether to skip, so any input would be welcome. Can't wait.

Excellent! Did you submit for the Dead Covers Project on Dead.net? Which one is you?

Yeah, especially coming out of the Mass MoCA benefit the night before, that room is not exactly acoustically ideal. What a difference a night made.

In the spirit of Smells Like Flowers, have to say I was also at the Wilco show at the Bushnell in 2012. First time for me in that theater, what a fantastic venue!

Listening and watching. Great stuff .

I don't remember much about the Ramones show. I can picture the room and where we were. My memory is that it was hardly crowded at all. The show has a lot of meaning for me because I was there with my brother, who passed away many years ago. The Clash show I remember well. It's in my personal top 5 of best shows I've seen. Looks like the date was March 9, 1980. It was probably the loudest show I've ever been to. I was first year of law school at BU. Went with a group of friends, we started off in our seats in the balcony, but at some point a few of us ended up in some seats on the flo

I've got stories

Not really a "guest" performance since they've done this several times, but The Meter Men. Page McConnell playing with 3 of the original Meters. It works.

I'm going to assume "big" includes arenas (MSG, etc.) on up to stadiums and outdoor festivals, and "small" includes theaters (Beacon, Orpheum) on down, here's some of what I would include: Big: Any number of Dead shows, but these are always at the top of my list, including Roosevelt Stadium 1974 and 1976, MSG 9-20-90, the 1991 Boston Garden run, and the 2 May '77 shows I saw (St. Louis and Hartford). Any number of Phish shows, including shows at Worcester Centrum, Great Woods, Boston Garden Every year I went to Jazz Fest Every Solid Sound Small (impossible to list only 3, this list will

Excellent! Let's definitely meet up. Given that we're "old" and that we're "saving money" by not going to JazzFest this year, we splurged and bought the VIP tickets, but if you didn't we'll find a way to connect. For me the attraction is the Allmans and 2 nights of Phil. Glad to see they added Gary Clarke Jr., and Stevie Winwood. It's a Peter Shapiro production, so I'm sure the lineup will fill out nicely.

Agreed, I don't know if anything could top this in the "strange" category.

Don't know where home is for you, but Butch spoke of a fall tour in a recent interview. Being that it's the final year, and I'm not making it to JazzFest this year, buddy and I decided to see as many Allmans shows as we can (live in Boston), so going to the Beacon for 1 show and made the plunge to go to Lockn Festival in VA September 4-7. Allmans playing one night there, with 2 nights of Phil and Friends, 2 nights of Widespread (with Stevie Winwood) and 2 nights of Ratdog. I'm figuring Warren/Mule and Derek/Susan likely to be added since the Allmans are already there.

And one of the coldest, windiest nights in Boston ever. We parked in the Boston Common garage and my buddy and I still talk about that walk across the Commons to get to the Orpheum. Fortunately the Replacements warmed us to the core with a great show.
