  1. Didn't see Sarah but I did see Paul Langois.
  2. According to FB, some folks seem to be calling MCarter Theatre directly and getting tickets.
  3. If I don't like the portapotties, I can go home to use the washroom.
  4. I inspired something? MapQuest says TD Centre/Lansdowne Park is a half a kilometer, or about .4 of a mile for our US friends. I went to Chicago to see Jeff; that was around 1,300 kilometers.
  5. Wilco is listed for the Ottawa CityFolk Festival. Festival runs from September 16 through 20 (about 5 blocks from my house)
  6. I voted no. It's either too late or too early. If you had considered selling them 6 years ago, you might have got something for them. Pretty hard to sell right now for anything approaching what you paid for them. On the other hand, maybe they will appreciate in value in 10 years. I say keep 'em.
  7. I didn't get this for Christmas. Too subtle I guess. So I bought a copy for myself on Boxing Day. Now I've got "Any Major Dude Will Tell You" stuck in my head. Plus I've got a big hunka gunk on "True Love Will Find You In The End". Will give it a good cleaning on the weekend and see if I can make it disappear.
  8. Should I try to buy tickets (will these be will call only)? I can't go but I'd hate to see people here shut out. Anyhow, good luck to all.
  9. Yeah, it's a shame I couldn't just order a copy of this to add to my LP preorder. Unlikely to show up in Canada.
  10. How do we generate some traffic to our site? I know! Make up a list where we insult every popular musician we can think of.
  11. In some ways, I'm sorry to hear that - in only one way really. I considered going to this show and passed it up. Now I'm really disappointed. Thanks for the review and happy to hear you enjoyed it. If he gets any closer to Ottawa (or if he even gets this close again), I'm going.
  12. "How nice is it to see the younger generation playing the festival circuit." Is this supposed to be a parody?
  13. I think I saw him in Ottawa but couldn't be sure because he was wearing a shirt.
  14. Thanks to Kalle for taking notes. I couldn't have named most of the new songs anyway but I just enjoyed this show. It seemed to me Jeff was in a really super good mood. He looked so happy. "Blues isn't supposed to make you feel good, it's supposed to make others feel worse. If that's an acceptable definition, then my music is definetly blues" or something like that. The other observation is that I guess the "encore" was the band coming back for the last two numbers but Jeff never left the stage so it certainly wasn't perceived as an encore. I have never seen an Ottawa audience yell
  15. I've probably said this before, but best first post ever
  16. I am obviously ignorant about a lot of what goes on here. I don't know about the bannings, and when I read the rules in the context of this thread, they're a lot stronger than I would have thought. I miss them both.
  17. This is a wonderful community! PM sent. Thanks very much to linclink my vinyl angel
  18. Thanks very much for the offer. Let me know if you got it. If not, I'll probably preorder from Wilcostore (thanks to A Radio Cure - I missed it in the Wilco Store; it doesn't show up in the vinyl section, oddly enough)
  19. If anybody gets me one of these, I'll pay for cost, shipping, and finder's fee or something. I'm pretty much positive it won't be available in Ottawa (since it's a festival show) thanks
  20. The Ottawa Bluesfest schedule is posted. Jeff is booked from 9:30 - 10:45.
