I'm alive....I think a jizzed and soiled myself a few times. I lost it on The Dark, yes it was the 3rd song. Tom is really fucking cool got to hang with him before and after. They were all exhausted afterwards. I think I have spoiled Trent for concerts. He's seen Sonic Youth on the steps of the Arch, got to have a long conversation with Pokey LaFarge before the show and got music tips, and this.



This is amazing!!!!!! So great you had a wonderful night after a dry spell. Awesome possum!
Cow temperature.

And the author is one of my besties...and friends and local tour guide for Ms Y yesterday. And at one point, I did have a tear. It was just so great to see them again.

Awesome picture. I'm sure there's a great story that goes with it that we haven't heard yet  ;) Did you wait after the show? Is that backstage? Need more details  :)

One of my friends is related to Tom. She was the hook up queen last night and I owe her majorly for it.

Your boy needs to know that you are now the COOLEST DAD EVAR.

I'm hoping to run across one as well.   Only 100 made.  I didn't want to carry it and they were gone afterwards of course.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

woooooooooahhhhh, that was awesome. song of the night...off the record. That beginning jam was sweet! Show was great.

Anybody know what Tommy said at the end? Sounded like "this is the loudest crowd we've ever played for"

oh and that guitar tech needs to get his shit together. Jim and the boys played through it no problem, just wondering if jim wouldev thrown a solo onto into the dark.

Off the Record was great.

Couldn't tell

Did anybody catch what kinda problems JJ was having with his guitar? I couldn't hear a problem with it when he started The Dark.  I don't really hold it against the guitar tech, he was obviously hard at work tryin to get it back on track. I'm sure they take a beating the way they they get slung around.

There was a kink in the system somewhere. They got it worked out. JJ was cool with the tech guy that I saw.

ChronicHunger

I think it was something to do with the wireless plugin on his pedal board, the acoustic worked fine, but as soon as the Gibson came out on the dark it started cutting out. It looked like Jim was pretty upset when he went back there for the second time. I would be too though, you would've thought that one of the roadie brahs would've checked all of his guitars and not just one.

Anyways, i was one the rail in front of jim the whole time. AWESOME!

I'm sad I wasn't on the rail, but really kinda glad I wasn't. I'm dead tired enough as it is, if I was done there rocked out with you guys I would be destroyed today.

ChronicHunger

yea every muscle in my body is tired and sore. Kc tonight!!!!! wooooooohoooooooo!!!!!! :beer:

A positive review of the show.  But I am getting so tired of these reviews... it seems to be more about the journalist trying to exhibit supreme journalism skills more than it is about the music itself.  The last paragraph totally negates all legitimacy to the article.  Jim only said about 4 times he was at the City Museum and the author didn't catch that apparently.

Great show,  but since I've seen them at a big festival atmosphere I was hoping for a more intimate experience... but this jam filled rocker was obviously good too.

The sold-out show last night was something that couldn't be missed. Here's a pretty comprehensive show review, set list and photos from last night's concert in case you didn't make it out or just want to re-live it all over again:

My wishes for tonight are a single rare slow tune (BH, OSB, By My Car, Butch Cassidy, Needed It Most, etc.) and Highly Suspicious for my dumbass friend who loves it more than any other Jacket song.

HaHa.  Oh wait, are you referring to me?!  In that case, FU.  :)
Herm (or do I need to officially recognize you as BH in here?), several videos from last night's show on youTube.  By the time I watched One Big Holiday, I almost went a grabbed a beer and started rockin' my ass off again! (Almost, then realized that I'm still way too hungover for that.) 

Red Rocks on my mind...can't wait.

Ha, no I was thinking of JP since it was the only song he knew before about a month ago.   :)

Going to youtube.....

I was a little disappointed in the sound and then I get on here and see a bunch of reviews praising the sound.  Did a little research, and it looks like I might literally have some issues going on with my ears.  By about the middle of the show I was hearing a great deal of static and it was hard to pick out instruments.  I would also hear static when the crowd roared.  If I can no longer go to loud concerts without having the static issues, I will be gutted. :'(

Also had some drunk idiots around me that ruined the show for several.  Dropped a full draft beer on my foot and kept messing with a couple in front of me, nearly starting a fight on several occasions. 

Other than that, Delta Spirit and the first part of the MMJ show before my hearing issues started were fantastic.

That's my son's favorite song as well.  But he's 3.   ::)
Of course, dad loves that song too.
