Thanks to management for being so cool and even helping me get my little 10 year old obsessed fan to a couple of soundchecks. I want to be your son when I grow up. No really, he was one of the highlights of my weekend. Thanks for letting me take photos of him rocking out during the soundcheck and trusting me to dance with him on Sat night when I finally got to the venue. Awww. He'll dance with you anytime. Seriously, he brought it up on the way home yesterday.

Wow. What a weekend.
I can't fathom how lucky I am to love a band with such great fans. Every hardcore fan that made the trek was so fun, welcoming and someone I just want to grab a beer with. We had a nice contingent from Austin which was cool.
Thanks to Brendan for all he does.
Thanks to management for being so cool and even helping me get my little 10 year old obsessed fan to a couple of soundchecks.
But, most of all, thanks to The Hold Steady for not just being there whenever I need them most, but for being all around great guys. It was just a fantastic weekend of music and fun. Hope we can all do it again someday.
Jack

Yes! While night two didn't have any rarities, it was a fantastic set and the energy was off the hook. I can't imagine a better crowd, but the next two nights should be unbelievable. So happy I can be here.

looks like the download will have 13 demo tracks? i'm guessing the 11 tracks from the album and 2 b-sides? dunno if i'm getting my hopes up unreasonably but it'd be cool if there's a demo in there of something we haven't really heard. From the email, here are the B-Sides/Demos included on the digital download (not on the vinyl): Hot Soft Light (Demo) # Same Kooks (Demo) # Arms & Hearts (Demo) # For Boston (Demo) # Teenage Liberation (Demo) # Girls Like Status (Demo) # Chillout Tent (Early Demo) # And on the vinyl: Girls Like Status Arms & Hearts For Boston Teenage Liberation Citrus (Demo) Stuck Between Stations (Demo) Chips Ahoy! (Demo) Massive Nights (Demo) Chillout Tent (Demo) First Night (Demo)

That is so awesome. I have the Earl one hanging in my office (and the BAGIA two posters, too, they are updating all of mine!) Love the update. Ordered both!

Also, these are the definition of "First World Problems". Actually, more appropriately, "Rock and Roll Problems."

Will be really cool to hear HiW/Teeth Dreams tracks with Franz live! Was just thinking that about "Our Whole Lives!" Which BTW has been woefully underplayed.

Somebody should be posting pictures of Preacher Roe or Shotgun Shuba right about now. Whoa. Saving my money for a plane ticket for sure.

OK, now we have pictures of Lyle Alzado and Michael Jordan. I have a suspicion, anybody want to venture a guess what these mean?

I will travel wherever I must to see these shows. And, the vinyl is EPIC. I'm happy. Maybe like most reunions, it will go well and some more will come of it, but as it stands, I'll take what I can get from my favorite band.

The song clip was from his cover of the Titus song, "No Future." They covered each other's songs and released them before the tour. You can grab them here.

Yes, a great move and one I support 100%.
There are a lot of angry fans that he didn't cancel a few days earlier, but you have to anger some folks to take a stand. Everyone here understands what we sacrifice financially to travel to shows, so I am sad for those folks who have to eat hotel rooms/plane tickets.
But, prouder than ever to be a long time fan of Mr. Springsteen.

Unfortunately, the cassette version wasn't available in Austin. If anyone can grab one, I'll gladly pay you via Paypal +shipping. TIA!

I think you can just buy those tracks in the US. I can't tell anymore because I bought the whole thing.

Hell, these two new songs make this record rival FITF in my mind. So good.
Thought this deserved it's own thread in case anyone didn't know this was released today.

Reading the comments makes it sure sound like that person loves their "insider" status. Sorry if they are here reading this. I'm with tbob. I don't care about their personal lives and there is some borderline slanderous things in that post. Sure doesn't seem very Unified to me.
I hope they continue making more music, when they have a creative reason to do so.

Wow, just realized I could be in town for this. Could be my only chance to see him with a band. Question for those who have been there, are any seats good? The best seats available right now are way on the side, and tickets are a little pricey....any issues with views?
