$ rarely played Jayhawks tune...I'm sure I have this somewhere as a live track or as a demo...anyone remember where this is from?

 

Feel free to jump in with corrections. Vetiver is very good, and their lead blends very well with Gary on classic Jayhawks tunes. Two tour shirts for Gary and quite a bit of Vetiver merch.

 

GREAT SHOW! Definitely check it out if he's coming near you! He sounds GREAT and Vetiver is a terrific backing band and opener.

I miss you Uncle June.

Sweet list! I like Listen Joe a lot..hope he plays it in NYC!

[H.Stone]

Nice! He's coming to Madison on Thursday... It's a bit of a hike for a weeknight, but now I'm tempted.

[TimRoss]

I miss you Uncle June.

 

We miss you guys, too.

Ouch. Thought Gary might play mostly new songs I'm not familiar with. The wife and I were going to walk down to see the show and decided against it at the last minute as we are seeing "X" there on Tuesday. Glad you had fun. I caught the Jayhawks at the Bluebird several years ago and it was a fantastic show. How large was the crowd???

[TimRoss]

How large was the crowd???

 

100-150.

I just got back from the show today. I thought it was amazing. Especially the Relatively Clean Rivers cover. I mean, I screamed, dunno if I've ever done that at a concert. And TimRoss, I'd say there were about 200 people there. Which is still quite underwhelming. I had a great time. The cover of Easy Ride was most def my highlight from the night! (Were you up front Tim? I was the long haired hippy kid hah).

Yeah, I was up front with my wife, along the railing.

 

Thanks for the clarification on the Relatively Clean Rivers song. I thought it was Relatively Clean Waters, which then made me think it was actually a Muddy Waters song. Learn something new everyday!

that got me more excited to see my old friend on thursday in Madtown.

Saw Gary last night at the Pantages in Minneapolis. Sounded pretty good - they played a very similar setlist as in Denver, but mixed up the order a bit. My personal highlight was Settled Down Like Rain. I also really enjoyed Sound of Lies. Go see him if you get the chance - Vetiver was great too, so get there early.

 

On a side note to anyone who has seen Vetiver, what is up with the lead singers mouth? Very distracting.
