So I purchased the first two nights in mp3 format. Would the audio qualiity of alac or alac hd be worth the step up for the last night when it becomes available? I will just be listening to it from my iphone through my car stereo.

Probably not, to be honest. I've only downloaded the fancy ones for archival reasons and because I'm slowly renovating my basement to eventually have a better stereo system.

Sat night leaving Sam's Bar and Grill around 230 (hole in the wall and small) standing at front door zipping my jacket. Door opens and six people enter the last was Jim. Holy fuck looks like I'm staying. Soon there after Bo, Patrick and Tom enter  So great to talk with them and an unbelievable end to three days in Port Chester! Thanks boys.

WOW!  What an experience that must have been.

I just got home a couple of hours ago and will try to post some pix and video over the next few days.  Here's tour manager Eric Mayers overlooking his handiwork from the lower right side balcony in the latter half of night 3.

Words can hardly do justice to what we witnessed the last three nights.

Most amazing band in its prime playing almost its whole catalogue in the perfect venue with superb sound and the greatest fans in the world. This was my life's peak musical experience.

Teri and I loved hanging with all of you beautiful people and hope that those going to the next couple of shows have a great time and arrive home safe.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Glad you got to experience Wiltern II. I know EXACTLY what you feel.

So here are the Forum Faithful on the rail right after the Floating Action set.  There was no light so sorry for the poor quality but I did what I could in Photoshop to make most people visible.

One of the fun things from the balcony perspective was seeing all the forum peeps rocking out so hard on the rail and the band responding. Carl was in Ericm's face half the night; I still can't understand why his head didn't explode.

This night was by far my favorite jacket show ever and the War Begun was just epic.
Everything seemed to flow well as jon and others pointed out prior.  I also liked the visual aids and extended jams that happened.  Can't wait to get the downloads to relive these sets.  I don't think I could imagine a better way to spend three days than with this band and with you folks.

It was awesome seeing everyone one again we had met prior and meeting a whole other slew of jacket fans as well.  Such an all around fantastic time.   Hope everyone that is making the NYE and NJ date enjoy yourselves.  Can't wait to do this all again when they hit the road next go around.

It did.       

Even this cold to the bone New England chill could not solidify the face melt of PC!!!!!

Looking forward to seeing these videos and listening to the downloads nice and loud.  That was one of the best if not the best concert I have ever seen.  Being up close right in front of Carl with the great people on this Forum helped make the experience better.  Many familiar faces and some new faces that I hope to see next tour.

They played my two favorite songs back to back (Masterplan and O is the One), but I've been singing Honest Man and Touch Me Part 1 to myself since the show ended.  Either those two versions were particularly incredible or those have to be part of a new favorite list.  I think both.

The momentum of the show and energy of the band will not be soon forgotten.

Can't forget to add that Floating Action was great and the lights on the ceiling and the peripheral walls were very cool.  The disco ball and Z images were especially great touches.

Only one video from the last night.  I was standing up shooting Going to Hell > IWSYS and everyone around me sat down when IWSYS started leaving me exposed; one of the security guys came around and shut me down so IWSYS is cut short.

Everyone who was at this show knows how absolutely incredible it was. Even without Phone, Dondante, or Steam Engine, this was my favorite MMJ show I've ever seen. Can't wait to listen to it when they actually get the downloads working

Nice video. I really liked seeing it from that perspective. That's my one regret that I didn't get to see the show from that vantage point, but ultimately, being in the pit won out.

Here's a video of Honest Man shot by Eric Mayers, their tour manager from side balcony (see my post a page or so back).  Too bad he didn't move the camera a little to the left to catch all the Forum Faithful on the rail but you see Scosby's arm and sometimes his head throughout and more folks in the pan at the end.  If fact you can see me and the Ms 3rd row center in the Balcony (I'm standing wearing a black vest)!

Honest Man - My Morning Jacket 12-29-12. Capitol Theater, Port Chester, NY.

That is simply awesome footage.  As is the other stuff you posted, e.g. Lowdown.  I was in the Lodge that night  and had about the same view.

Glad you enjoyed it but sorry we didn't get to meet up, Adam, at least I don't think we did.  It was one big beautiful blur (which is why it's good to have videos).
