I too saw Evan on the fall tour. He had hurt his back sometime prior to the show I saw so explained the beers he was drinking were for pain. It didn't hurt his playing one bit and added some levity to a really great show. Sad news. Edit:

I'd pay the most to see Jeff solo in an very intimate setting. In the hundred$. Multiple hundred$$$$$.

I didn't know this until about five minutes ago. I like it. A lot.

Can't wait.

Thanks for Moorestown Solace. I really like it. I believe "Ghosts..." to be one of those perfect albums that comes around all too rarely these days. I will gladly except something half as good in "April" but hope for much more.

Poughkeepsie 2004. Dark suit. Dark shirt. Maroon(?) tie. Hummingbird dance. Great show. I saw Maudie there.

Thanks for the heads up Mr. Maker. I saw Sweeney Todd today and loved it. Most definitely near the top of my list.

Love it. A good hard read by a great writer. Edit: Challenging is much more appropriate than "hard".

Didn't see Superbad but Walk Hard is a definite as is Juno. Just didn't care for Knocked Up. At all.

In Order: No Country For Old Men Gone Baby Gone 300 Eastern Promises The Bourne Ultimatum Waitress Simpson's Movie 3:10 To Yuma Grindhouse Ratatouille Most overated piece of crap: Knocked Up

One of my all-time favorite shows. Also the last time I saw them with Jay.

I just talked to the Shubert Box Office. Wilco set a record for a sellout for an "adult" show but were trounced by The Wiggles by 30 minutes for the all-time record.

I got the "no tickets available" but I kept on trying and it gave me a single for New Haven. Pretty decent seat but I'm going for two on ticket day, Dec.15.

Expecting To Fly ~ Neil Young I've Been Riding With the Ghost ~ Songs:Ohia It Ain't Me Babe ~ Bob Dylan Simple Twist Of Fate ~ Jeff Tweedy Across The Universe ~ The Beatles

I too have heard them in a JC Penney (in Connecticut). I believe it was something from Being There.

Thanks so much for the post with the pictures. It looks like a pretty cool setup and what a great setlist. I had seventh row off to stage left but I switched to row fourteen much closer to center stage. December 7 seems worlds away. I can't f*****g wait!

Very cool DrNo. What are the odds of the encounter never mind the great picture.

Details please DrNo. PS ~

Inside "The Pocahontas". Happy Birthday Neil.

Just got Marah tickets for the Iron Horse in Northampton Ma. on January 20th. $12.50 plus $3.00 fee. Great live band, great venue.

Anthony Crawford has history with Neil playing/singing on Old Ways, Prairie Wind and Everybody's Rockin while joining Neil for those tours albeit they were short ones. Sounds like it's going to be a fun show.

The Queen Of Bedlam. Fictional murder mystery in NYC, 1702. Very good.

The soundtrack Kronos Quartet did for "Requiem For A Dream" added so much to a paralyzingly intense film. Glenn of course is one of the best. I always look forward to watching him play. It doesn't surprise when he collects accolades such as playing with other fine musicians. I'm not really a big Tom Waits fan but when I saw he was playing The Bridge School with Kronos I came very close to a plane ride.

Would you prefer "Blackout" by the estimable Ms. Spears?

The first time I ever heard of Marah was when I saw them open for Steve Earle. I predicted major success. "Let's Cut The Crap & Hook Up Later on Tonight" is still one of my favorite first albums.
