Just watched the Last Waltz for the first time in a while. Wow! I'm going to watch it again. Wow!

Bob Weir is a Wilco fan. Thats cool. He has good taste in music. I am a Bob Weir fan. I'm also a long time Deadhead. I enjoy good music.

Thanks Levon. You are a gem. Enjoy that band up there. Ian

NPR talked them up last week. It was a good interview. The group has a nice soulful sound. Something new to keep an eye on.

Check out the Let It Grow from Dekalb 10/29/77. Its a smoker!

Nope. They have jammed a little in the past. Casnio Queen ->Outtsite -> Monday etc (end of show rockers). Some good jams in the 90's & 00's. But still not full on. My favorite How to Fight Loneliness -> Not For The Season. nice jam. But not a jam band. It might be nice if they mixed it up a bit more. Jam some!

I have reservations about your last post. Will you make an announcement when your reservations have been lifted about the song in general? Or at least the studio version? Poor Places > Reservations is such a nice way to end that album. (IMO) I mean it sincerely.

Okay here is a smoker- I listened to this 2nd set driving to Lone Pine this morning in the rain ->> 11/17/73 Pauley Pavilion UCLA 2nd set highlight - Playin>Uncle John's>AM Dew>Uncle John's>Playing. WOW! A real nice Eyes>Sugar Mag to close the set. The run of Playin>UJB>Dew>UJB>Playin was done three times. (also 11/10/73 & 3/23/74) As the Tapers Compendium Vol.1 states - this version "is absolutely flawless in its execution" Check it out if you can.

I'm sure I could have explained it better. You are right. The only place money was involved was for the blanks and postage. If you ever came across somebody who wanted to sell you bootleg tapes, you just would not do it. That was a no, no. That was not how it went. It was free trade and trade freely. That was the beauty of it. That held true a little later too. Not too long ago there was a fair amount of trading discs on this site. The old fashion way "blanks & postage - no money - trade and trade a like" for Wiclo / Tweedy shows etc...... Maybe they still do it?

Terrapin Tapes was a source to get blank tapes in bulk at good prices. For me it was a slow process to get the tapes filled with music. This was before the Well and other internet sites. For out of town sources I'd have to go get the Relix Magazine go to the tape traders section. (I lived in a small ski town and local sources were very limited.) Look for the Deadheads "your list gets mine", It was the honor system. I'd mail off my tape list and they would send theirs. Study their list, make the deal - x number of tapes for x number of tapes. Hope and prey they would be true to their word. Ho

"I spent years searching for the best quality recording of this show that I could find, and my search took me to many places and made me a very good friend to this day. I was able to upgrade my audience cassettes to the soundboard recording in late '91 by way of the old Terrapin Station bbs, run by Cap'n Trips out of CT. This was before I found the WELL." Is that the same place as Terrapin Tapes? If so they had great bulk deals.

Nice! One of my favorite 77's. Let Grow is a blaze! Hope you had a great time.

Smallest Venue - Frost Ampitheater, Palo Alto, CA 10/10/82 Favorite/best show - Frost Ampitheater 10/10/82 Great show - harvest time from Humboldt!! Great Weather. Good Window-Pane! Small venue Jerry shows - Keystone Berkeley 8/21/81 Keystone Palo Alto 8/23/81 Mojo's Arcata CA 3/18 & 19/82 Country Club Reseda, CA 9/30/83 (My 21st B-day)

10/29/77 Dekalb Il check it out.

Best road score: In a single large stuff sack - two top of the line sleeping bags. (His & Hers) a North Face down fill (large) a Mountain Hardware down fill (Medium) A trip to the dry cleaners and they were as good as new.

I was just listening to the slow Box Full of Letters the other day. The collaboration is very nice. Those guys made a fine lounge act. Good stuff. Hey Robert, how ya doing?

I found them via Mermaid Ave when it first came out. Then I got my hands on a bootleg Tweedy disc from 10/21/99. (great show). Started to collect Wilco bootlegs after that. I had not heard a studio album until sometime between YHF and the I Am Trying To Break Your Heart film. Continued to add bootlegs (Wilco, Tweedy and the like) to the vault. Finally saw them in Portland OR 11//11/04 (standing behind Sarah C) and the again at the Berkeley Greek 6/11/05. Great Great shows. Top notch performers. (can't say enough) I wish I could see more shows. Still in all, one of my all time favorite bands!

Great Thread. Keep it going. We miss you Joe!

More People make more people quicker. Staggering.....on and on and on and on...... Enjoy your ride, it does not last long.

How To Fight Loneliness --> Not For The Season (Laminated Cat) What a great combo! Hope they do it again - Someday soon.

Wilco The Album After The Last Wilco The Album or W(TAATL W(TA

Harpo's Blues is up there in my all time favorite songs. The band up above keeps getting better.

You people are wacky! Something is way wrong here. Did you forget the news? Wilco has a new album coming out this Fall and there is a possiblity that it just may be a double album. WTF people! I can't believe the turn and tone of this thread. Shall we blame Wilco for stringing you out for so long between albums. Would you all behave a little better or be a little nicer if Wilco would produce an album a year? I doubt it. You would surely find something to piss and moan about. Grow up!

I will continue to support Wilco though the 2012 Presidential race and there-after. I will not mix any politics into my support for Wilco.
