    sad but glad too. they need a rest. rest so you won't crash and burn. IMO bc tours like crazy. one of the busiest touring bands i've ever seen.
    i wish the best for the guys.
    thanks for some slamin good times at your shows!

    Dude...I couldn't have said it better myself.

    Lookin' forward to the Freak N' Roll people. Let's all get out there and see them off the best way that we can.

    if you're not already aware of it, Steve Gorman's podcast is pretty cool and pretty funny if you appreciate deadpan unintentional humor. go to www.stevegormansports.com

    in this week's podcast, he talks about record store day, vinyl in general, napster's effect on his royalties (humorous), breaking his arms, and a short blurb on the new tour dates.

    We may possibly switch up Portland for Vegas, but I'm hesitant to do so because the SLC show is electric only, and so is the Vegas. Going to Portland would be my only chance to catch the 3 hour show with 1/2 of it being acoustic. Although Vegas would be more affordable. :?

    Which ever one you end up being at, I think it would be a grand idea for us to enjoy a beer together. :)

    Didn't realize all that jive with the different venues. Portland it is! I have to see the epic half and half show. I think I can handle a beer... or two.

    Awesome! and yes, I didn't realize it either until I questioned the asterisks on the table of tour dates via their website.

    Seeing that this may be my last opportunity for quite some time, I have to indulge in every ounce of epicness.

    Nice!


    They are going with some kind of VIP ticketing package this tour. I registered for updates when they become available. Wonder how this will work.

    i just want to say one reason why i love the bc is that their tickets were always reasonable. $40-ish.
    they go on sale near me the day after my pj show. so i'm hoping i can get tickets. may have to see which places sale TM in northern virginia.

    Thought I'd drop in and let all fellow Amoricans know that Jen and I made the commitment and we will be headed to San Francisco for some of the shows on their closing 6 night stand in December.

    And the band played on...

    I'd love to do that but I'm 2000 miles away. Oh well, I plan on hittin the standard(for me) St Lou show at the Pageant, and it looks like the Ryman too. The wifey was checkin out dates. The Crowes are tops for her and everyday she complains about this indefinite hiatus, so maybe we do somethin crazy....Who knows??

    If you wanna do something crazy, hit up the Fillmore shows with me. The indefinite hiatus is the entire reason I convinced the g/f to go.

    After posting a thread about the Fillmore on the Crowes forum, some people are giving me the impression that it's going to be a great two nights with a lot of energy, history in the venue, and some great tunes. can't wait!

    Never been to the Fillmore either. 8-)

    Lucky, lucky. Trying to swing 4 myself: Two SF, SLC, and possibly the Eagle, ID show.

    I seriously can't wait, these shows are going to be incredible.
