  1. I realize it's a stretch. Their tourdates email from July featured a photo from their acoustic set performance at Solid Sound. It seemed like a message. But having seen vids from the current tour stops on Youtube, I haven't seen any clips that would give it any more credibility. I really don't know what I'd prefer given the choice. They friggin kill it either way.
  2. yeah…youtube KEXP subscription ftw. It's more evidence that we'll see some acoustic Wilco in Ottawa.
  3. This is such a great recording. it was fun to listen along with nathan and the 20+ who were in the chat room. I like how nathan's got his radio show set up. He still reads the chat and responds live, but I miss the video stream.
  4. Nathan is streaming the full show audio on his cast live tonight. http://nathansland.com

    Hey Mike...

    TIL that i've never deleted a private message.
  6. It was a weirdly nostalgic experience to see the Days of You guys playing Jerry....remembering seeing them in the early 90's in kingston etc. Awesome jerry work! So the bass player was one of the Days of You guys right? I wasn't 100% sure.
  7. happy birthday Phorbesie! more belated thanks to the forum being down.

    that looks intense.
  9. That vid right there was blasting in my kitchen tonight playing through the previously referenced simple > First Tube > bathtub Gin and then dialing it back to the first set's get back on the train and onward. so glad that these vids don't get pulled off for copyright claims.
  10. More from Bill Burr Bill congratulated the crowd for "skating" their way to a "parking lot" to see him perform under the hot sun (his last visit here was in the winter and he commented in his podcast on how cool it was that the people of Ottawa go to work wearing skates along the canal). Of course he had to throw some hockey jabs out there and his disdain for the Habs overshadowed any cracks against the Senators. Around the 10 minute mark, Burr realized that he hadn't even started any of his material yet after just freeflowing up to this point, using inspiration from some of the audience. Bill politely reminded one guy who was capturing video with is phone from the front that he might like to put out another comedy special with material that isn't already all over youtube, while also surgically shaming him to bits. Another guy brought a homemade sign that read "Just Checking In On YAAAAA!!!" which is basically his podcast catchphrase at the top of each episode. While the sign was a funny lone prop in the crowd, Ol' Billy boy didn't hold back the jabs, while he was at least a little humoured over the fan effort. After entering into his material, he ran through current topical targets like Caitlyn Jenner, or his own personal life as a married guy, what he thinks of feminists and his take on racism. Anyone who might walk in on each of those bits, out of context, might walk away offended. Burr's material needs to be heard from start to finish. His views are usually a reflection of common ignorance, or general media perceptions on stereotypical behaviors. He makes fun of himself more than anyone else. It's really hard to describe, and it's much easier to direct attention towards one of his specials on Netflix, or even his podcast.
