Nashville 1.17.07


Recommended Posts

unreal...

 

opens with Kidsmoke and some douche 30 seconds in yells for Radio King.. that set the tone of the night.. really dont feel like describing the bantar between Jeff and the rude hick

 

great show.. tons of talking.. continued the band game from last night in memphis.. the fans basically picked the setlist..

 

ill let someone else write out the setlist no way i can remember the order with all of the interruptions but Jeff really had a good time and said the Ryman show last St. Patty's day was probably his favorite/best show ever.. "all downhill since"

 

talked a little about the new album coming out May 15th and that the band will be back in nashville this year

 

funny moment was when Glenn came back out with Jeff.. they played a few and finally Jeff thanked him etc... being his last night on the tour.. proceeds to play Im the Man Who Loves You while facing him and the mic turned.. hopefully someone grabbed this on video

thanks for the info. This banter shit is crazy...sounds like its getting as bad as it was with Ryan Adams. Let the dude play his music.

 

 

yeah i dont feel like typing it all out right now because the guy really made me mad but luckily didn't ruin the show.. but lets just say Jeff finally shut him up by talking about his mom's death last year..

the tweedy banter wasn't really that entertaining to me. too much dealing with the request making asshole and not enough playing or funny banter. i came up with something of a setlist. i didn't get one song.

 

spiders (kidsmoke)

radio king

i didn't know this one (lyric : "be patient with me)

one by one

bob dylan's beard

iattbyh

e2: heavy metal drummer

gun

 

 

 

it was pretty good i was just hoping for more music. he also revealed that the new album will be called "Sky Blue Sky" and will be released on 15 May.

these setlist look really short. I hope by B'ham he is warmed up and tired of the games. JT has some of the best Banter I have ever heard but if its cutting the setlist short then I'm not sure its worth it. It's his show though so he can do whatever he wants.

yeah it is kind of catch22 ... as a pearl jam fan also you have to let Eddie talk and go off on his wild rants and tangets at times.. whatever keeps the front man happy will keep them playing more and enjoying what they are doing on a nightly basis

 

it looked as if jeff had a great time tonight.. he said he was an hour in last night and had only played 4 songs.. he knows it cuts the sets short but also at the same time if the crowd would shut up there would be less chance of him going off on something

 

but at the same time if it wasn't for the crowd we would not have heard Heavy Metal Drummer.. a young guy asked when jeff came back out to play Gun if Glenn was finished for the night. he said yeah unless you want to hear some more.. next thing u know glenn is out there adding an extra song to the set

 

really surprised we didn't get Acuff-rose tonight being nashville and all.. i have a feeling Jeff didn't want to try to sing it and deal with some of the obnoxious guys in the audience

way too much audience, not enough music.

 

don't get me wrong: i enjoyed the show when jeff was playing, but there were times that i wanted to leave because of how everybody was behaving.

 

i hope he strikes a balance by knoxville.

An amazing show.....

 

There was a lot of banter and audience noise...the guy yelling for Radio King was certainly a frigging idiot.

 

All in all though I thought the crowd was fairly respectful....yeah don't yell your requests during a song, and the "whoo hoos" do get old but I would say the crowd was 98% enthralled and respectful and 2% were acting like asses.

 

Give Glenn some love...he played a really interesting set before Jeff came on. I really liked it, but it seemed like a lot of people were like ok enough of the drums.

 

Anyways I'm sure there will be the usual complaints about the audience, etc, etc but as far as I'm concerned I just drown that out. Your always gonna have beered up chowderheads doing that. That guy last night is probably going on and on to his friends about "hey man I was jiving with Tweedy last night". Sad to get your claim to fame by acting like a douche. That guy should have gone to the Red Hot Chili Peppers show that was going down at the Gaylord Center last night, he would have fit right in with that crowd.

 

That being said any of you who are going to see Jeff at upcoming shows are in for a treat, if he plays half as well as he did here last night you will all have a great time.

jeff opened w/ kidsmoke and i thought "oh hell yeah." then the asshole from the balcony, unfortunately, set the tone for the night and there was WAY WAY WAY too much crowd noise. one guy actually asked, "hey jeff? will you call my sister?" ?!? i drove three hours for this show, and there was a time when i wanted to actually leave ("hey jeff? what kind of harmonica do you play?" "jeff? will you sing happy birthday to my son?").

 

when he was singing, it was awesome. laminated cat was my favorite.

 

i really don't understand why people want to yell from the crowd--but i say we start thumping them on the back of the head.

 

i hope the guy from the balcony never sleeps again.

I was sitting right in front of the guy in the balcony. We told him to tone it down. Eventually the cops escorted him out.

 

Great show otherwise.

 

Nice to know he finally got taken out. I was starting to wonder why the people around him weren't kicking his ass, especially after Jeff's funeral comment.

 

Great show overall, but the audience bantering was getting out of hand.

Get over it people.

Look, theres the typical audience banter that goes down at Tweedy shows and then theres the bullshit that happened last night in Nashville. It was way out of control. I felt embarrassed when the turd in the second row asked Jeff if he would call his sister and talk to her. What the fuck?

And having him sing Happy Birthday to your son. How bout you and your son go outside and shoot yourselves?

And the poop thing? That got way out of hand. "Nitty Gritty Dirt Band" HaHa!

And if I had been sitting anywhere near that fuckstick in the balcony he would have gotten a water bottle upside the back of his head after the third time he yelled at Jeff. What an idiot. You mean he wasn't there with anyone that told him to shut the fuck up?

Good show though.

I thought it was a great show. Firstime seeing Jeff solo. For those who were there, which song did Jeff say he would never sing again since he sang it at his mother's funeral? I could not here the original request.

 

Thanks.

Good show though.

 

 

the only good thing about the 15 year old asking for him to call his sister .. it was the same guy that asked jeff if Glenn would come back out.. atleast we got an extra song because of that kid

 

yeah the guy whoasked us to sing happy birthday for his son was real cool.. another waste of time

 

i really wish more people in the balcony would have stood up for jeff and helped kick that guy out earlier.. not sure why no one did.. instead a lot of people just laughed and kept him going

Great show! Highlights: Kidsmoke, Sky Blue Sky, Gun

 

There is such a fine line between good audience interaction as part of the show and banter that interferes with it. Jeff kind of reinforces it, by actually giving him the attention that he is wanting and then even playing his song! I wonder what would have happened if he had just ignored him.
