MWB Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Did any of you guys request a song? I requested The Lonely 1. One of my favorites, still have yet to hear it live. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I requested Kamera ... because Jeff confiscated my camera at the Wichita show. Here's the result: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

M. (hristine Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I believe I see the lovely MChris in that pic...'Tis! And standing beside me in the red shirt is kidsmoke, taking a picture of Jeff taking a picture of us. (I should find that picture.) What a great little show that was. Little did we know the drama which was yet to unfold the very next night. Who knew Tweedy was a ninja? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MWB Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 That's what I was thinkin'--early afternoon sometime. Hopefully the weather cooperates. I believe Tulsa's supposed to get some snow on Thursday and Friday. Hopefully it's all gone by Saturday afternoon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe Tulsa's supposed to get some snow on Thursday and Friday. Hopefully it's all gone by Saturday afternoon. My brother lives like an hour and a half south in norman and i talked to him about it. He said its suppose to snow but is suppose to warm up toward the weekend. Weather.com confirmed that as well. Suppose to be very sunny with highs in the 40s. So cold (im from texas so thats cold to me) but not too cold. I just hope its not that windy. Cannot wait. I am not going to be able to concentrate during class. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
creativetype Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 When Wilco played the Cain's a couple years ago, I got there about 1.5 - 2 hours prior and still got up front. There were maybe a dozen fans (mostly VCers) in front of me at the time, including Donna, MChristine and their kids. Of course, it was much warmer then. Also, I know of a couple quality tapers that will be there, so we'll have a nice memento from the show afterward. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I'll be there a little earlier this time since it's a Saturday. I suspect other people will be, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thejokeexplained Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 i'm in as well as the wife and the rig! can anyone please tell me about the venue seating options? is the whole thing SRO or might there be a few seats or a balcony? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KansasAl Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 How many people does Cain's hold? I was thinking 3000 or so? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CommerceComet Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 How many people does Cain's hold? I was thinking 3000 or so?according to http://www.oklahomarock.com/venues.htm, it's about half that. But I'm thinking that might be a little low. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No balcony, but some "bleacher" type seats to the right and left of the main "dancefloor" ... For Jeff's solo show there last year, they brought in chairs, but this (like most other shows there) will be GA, SRO. I'd say 1500 is about right. Can't imagine 3,000 in there. Also, there's an adjacent bar area that might offer some seating. David, after talking to a taper from Stillwater who did the last Wilco show there, he says theyusually have a pretty decent set-up for tapers in the back/center, kind of in a corral around the soundboard. Hopefully, it will be a good set-up for you. See you there! As always, you can use my pics to accompany your audio. Trying out a different camera this time, though ... hope to get at least a few decent shots. I'm a little worried about its low-light capabilities. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
