CommerceComet Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 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.one thing i love about attending oklahoma shows, i know incredible pics will emerge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tugmoose Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Isn't this the 30th anniversary of the Sex Pistols playing Cains? Perhaps Jeff should do the orange hair thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
creativetype Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 one thing i love about attending oklahoma shows, i know incredible pics will emerge. No pressure or anything. Isn't this the 30th anniversary of the Sex Pistols playing Cains? Perhaps Jeff should do the orange hair thing. Or punch a hole in the wall backstage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CommerceComet Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 No pressure or anything. Haha, i'll bring my camera, too. Yours just put mine to shame. I took some great pics at ACL last year, but indoor shows prove too tough for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scubajib Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 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.

Hodie Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Of course, it was much warmer then. Now THERE'S an understatement. It was 104 degrees that day! No hats and gloves required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MWB Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Anyone planning on staying after to try to meet the guys? I've never done it before and think I may try to this time around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dentoncitylimits Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Anyone planning on staying after to try to meet the guys? I've never done it before and think I may try to this time around. I am definitely planning on staying afterwards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CommerceComet Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I read somewhere that Ryan Adams and the Cardinals came out and gave stickers to the hard-core fans in line at Cain's. So, in a dream situation, you wouldn't have to stay afterward. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rzback543 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 If anyone needs tickets they released some on cainsballroom.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
creativetype Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Several fans (including me) went around back last time after their previous Cain's show (gate was open) ... waited for about 20-30 minutes -- again, it was much warmer weather ... then a roadie came out the back door and said to follow him ... we went back inside thinking we were being escorted out of the place for good, but then were marched out back again, presumably after the outside gates were locked. In a while, John came out and met each fan, then Jeff, Glenn and Mikael, along with the openers -- Kingsbury Manx. MChristine, Kidsmoke, and others got pics with the guys, autographs, etc. Very cool. Kingsbury Manx were touring in a chocolate brown panel van that looked in kinda rough shape. Wilco had a gleaming black bus ... they were all headed south after that, to Austin I think.
