Argh! Saw Sam in a coffeeshop in Seattle on Saturday and totally forgot to ask him anything at all about this show!
The wind blew me back, via Chicago, in the middle of the night.

I thought this was last night and was wondering why no one was talking about it.... now it makes sense. interested to see how this night unfolds
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...

At the show, starts in 20. The venue is reaching capacity and based on some conversations it seems that the majority of the crowd is here for yim rarer than iron and wine. More updates coming.

Against/ thanks to my better judgment, made the 3-hour drive to Austin/Stubb's. Of course, now I have no idea why I almost let myself miss this ;)
Let's get it ooooooon....

I saw a picture on Twitter showing what appeared to be members of the PHJB with Jim, who was wielding an electric. Take that for what it's worth. Sure wish I coulda been there.

That's hysterical.  I was just about to post something along the same lines but you beat me to the punch, Woodynymph!  Yes, please - DETAILS.  Can't wait to hear about it.  :D
Give me a butt load of reverb on this one - just pile it on.

Ok my spirit is leaving my body, and it will only return when intel has been posted!!!

That is interesting to hear that the Preservation Hall crew is in on things, but what of SAM!!!  What what what what what are he and Jim doing on that stage.

What a great show, he played a bass the whole time and the omni on a few songs.  It rocked.  He played continously with very little break (if any) in between songs.  Setlist from memory...probably missing a few songs or out of order.   Can't wait till they come back to Texas!!

New song?  (w/Preservation tuba and sax + Will Johnson)

This is great!! We're getting warmer!! And thank you too, at dawn, for your lowdown!! (<--how many mmj song titles can we squeeze into one sentence.....)

And I know this is the Jacket  message board, but I beg of you who attended this, in honor of the rareness of Jim playing with them, how was Iron & Wine involved??  Did they do any I&W songs, what did Sam & Jim say to one another..... what were they wearing............are there.....pictures......videos........tweets, twits, spotifys, flickrs, skypes???   *claws at screen*

Finale= only Iron & YY collab = cover of Lionel Richie's "Stuck on You" ; YY joined the stage/song near the start of the chorus. Iron's 9- piece band also participated. Like I need to say it, but will go ahead- twas awesome.

Woodnymph- greetings! Ouch, I feel like I failed my duty somehow :o Please forgive!

THANK YOUU!!!  You've not failed a thing!!  You've just rescued me from certain destruction.  They only did one tune together?  And it twas a Lionel cover?  That would be phenomenal to see!!  But I was hoping they'd duo on... well.... every song  :(   Unrealistic dreams, I know....

I just had to shout to you cause you were the only one I saw last reporting on the event!  You've just saved my soul, THANK YOU!!  :-*

Glad ya made the hike, definitely worth it!!  Wish I was closer than 20 hours away!!

Can't wait to hear Crispy's account too!!   :D

I reeeally need to head to bed, early wake-up tomorrow & a loooong day from there... I'm about ready to post my cell # on here and encourage any and all other updates on this show hahah

But I guess I'll refrain.. will try to hop on in the morning if my wireless isn't all funked up.  Iron & Wine was my favorite "newer" act before I found my Jacket, so this was a dream show for me to sit out on.... so my information desperation overtakes me.... thank you a million times for the updates, Brittney!!  I wasn't going to sleep until I heard a word about it!  :)

No sweat, Woodnymph! Wow, this show was custom-made for you  :( I'm hoping there are reviews/photos galore on the web tomorrow to feast your eyes on.

I'm super-new to I & W & lack background to fully process the show but will say I was blown away by how his songs were transformed from the sparse, slow tunes heard on record to these lively-dare I say danceable- numbers they were tonight. And I never realized until tonight how much I & W sings about boning  :embarassed:

G'night!


hellaciousc

i was a bit out of it during the show, but i seem to recall "Gideon" being played as well.
But I can't swear on it.

personally, i thought the bass was a bit distracting on some tunes. 
wish he had played guitar instead.

LOVED LOVED LOVED 'right place', 'golden' and 'bermuda highway'.    "Wonderful Man" was pretty awesome stripped down and slower too.

my buzz had worn out by the time Iron and Wine played, and the crowd got too much for me, so i had to move to the very back.   The Lionel cover was fantastic.

Will and Jim's voice's sounded pretty damn great together.
Jim and Sam Beam's voices together was pretty out of this world.

great show...not at all what i was expecting.

still need a theater show with jim, sam and 2 guitars.

lionel cover was tits.

Nice!   Anybody see any tapers?   

If not, if everyone can team up and put together the best setlist they can for this for my records, I'd appreciate it!   Great start from At Dawn, thanks!
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Setlist looks right from what I remember. I seem to remember him saying "change" a lot in the first song. "Change your clothes, change your makeup."???
