Tom Petty's website posted a note that there would be a major announcement this week. I assume it's going to be a summer tour, and I for one, am excited. I have had nothing but great experiences seeing TP in concert, because A) he always has great openers (Steve Winwood, Pearl Jam) he has an extensive catalog and C) great stage/light show.

 

Does anyone else share this feeling? Or not...?

One of the times I saw "The Replacements" was when they opened for Tom.

 

 

I'm a bit surprised, happy & worried about these being pretty small venues. A best friend of mine loves Type O Negative and always tends to see them at Lupo's and tells me how small that room is.

 

Concord is so fucking sweet though. They're playing my state.

 

 

 

 

Good Luck on tickets etc.!

In case you don't know Lupo's is now a theater venue as opposeed to a long room with a stage on one side.

That was wonderful.

I've fallen in love wth Wilco (the album). I thought SBS was good and still do but Wta blows me away. I listened to it down by the sound (Long Island Sound) this morning with the sun coming up and it brought me to places only Wilco can. I love this album. The more I hear it the better it becomes. Very close to perfection.

PS ~ ih8music, love your avatar.

Wilco just never stops loving me. My new favorite App. Along with MLB.com of course.

I'm happy they're both doing what ever the hell they want. Some things never change. Thank God.

Two seats Row F at The Calvin. I've done better but I'm quite happy. Great venue, great town.

Northampton, AWESOME!! I've said it a million times before, but it's my favorite town to see a show.

Me too. I never miss Northampton. Ever.

BTW: Love the new super-sized avatars. Must visit more often.

I like em all except Are You Passionate and Landing On Water. If I had to pick a favorite it would be Ragged Glory because I listen to it the most. Sleeps With Angels is also great but too down for regular spins.

PS~ I just bought The NYA - BluRay. Now all I need is a BR player and a T.V.

I think sections 1-4 are going to be GA and 5-12 will be reserved, so those are great front floor tickets.

In the past/80's, 90's Neil's always prompted us to crowd the stage. I've seen many (20?) Neil shows from the edge of the stage. He feeds off the crowd like no one I've ever seen. If Worcester ever goes on sale I'm going for the G.A. tickets. Without a doubt.

Thanks folks. I thought it might be Crazy Horse this time around with it being an arena tour. Personally I'd rather see this band. For now the venue closest to me is Worcester, Ma. The DCU Center. Better (easier anyway) than trekking into NYC to see another MSG show.

Does anyone know who Neil's touring with this Fall/Winter?

Anyone have any idea what time to expect Wilco to hit the stage? It's going to be close for me. I won't be arriving until 7:30.

This happened in 1996 and it was really good:

 

 

That was also one of my favorite Neil tours for that album. Those songs sounded phenomenal live.

We have fairly good seats on Nels' side. I believe they're about 20 rows up. I haven't been to Tanglewood since I saw NY & The Bluenotes. Long, long time ago.

When I got to my very best friend's funeral I was there first. They were playing Johnny Mathis' kitten up a tree song when I asked if they had a cd player. No came the answer but I do have a cassett player. The whole wake was nothing but live Dead. No pun intended. I had a Dicks Picks 3 in my truck for some reason on tape and it played through out. That was the coolest thing I'd ever done and just didn't give a f**k what all the "blue haired ladies in their wheelchairs" thought. I new Billy would want Jerry there. Years later it's still talked about in funeral lore of Southeast CT.

Me I want "Tonight's The Night" played once for my close friends and family. That's it. No words no tears. Now bury my dead ass. Cause I'm gone and nothin's gonna bring me back. Not even Neil.

Nashville Skyline is the one I listen to most says my iPod. I suppose that would make it my favorite.

My favorite Hemingway and also my favorite all-time book. I read it every couple of years or so.

Human Highway (1974) ~ CSNY. This was going to be the cover of the album. At the time they could all write and sing so who knows. It could have been pretty good.

Great show! From Husker Du to the new album "District Line" the man rocked the joint.

Missed SNL (whew!) but caught "The" band this morning. Thanks for the links folks.

Sweet! We have the same first show

Very cool. I love that show. I don't just think it's because it was my first either. That show kicked royal a**. For me it was Rock & Roll perfection.

50 plus shows in eight states in eleven years (Feb 15, 1997 NYC). Some of the very best times of my life.

Music may not be able to change "the" world but it certainly has the power to change "my" world. Thanks Neil.
