    Did anyone snag the 3 song bonus disc from a local record store? Just curious what was on it and if anyone might pass me the tracks


    I didn't but I want them too.

    Blue Suede Shoes
    Girl I Love You
    Bright Lights, Big City

    I figured the first two were on there from the RSD release...I'd love to get Bright Lights Big City though.

    Still on the fence about this record. It's jammy, kinda like The Dead meets Ryan Adams a bit. I dig some of the Winwood-ish keys on the record...sounds real old school.

    I got the bonus tracks. They are ok.

    Record just makes me miss the Crowes.

    I'm friggin exhausted. We got to the venue at 7:30 tonight and the show didn't end until after midnight. Chris went on a little late, and the break in between sets was lengthier than usual, but the sets themselves were very long with tons of jams. I think Chris likes Columbus because every time he or the Crowes play here, it seems to be a really long set. I didn't take any pictures but here's the setlist in case anyone is curious

    Set 1:
    Tomorrow Blues
    Someday Past The Sunset
    100 Days of Rain
    Tough Mama
    Star or Stone
    Tumbleweed In Eden
    Never Been To Spain
    Tulsa Yesterday

    Set 2:
    Try Rock N Roll (1st time played)
    Rosalee
    Girl On A Mountain
    They Love Each Other
    Vibration & Light Suite (the jam at the end of this was incredible. Whatever they are paying Adam Macdougall is not enough)

    Ride (best live version of this I've ever heard. Crowd went crazy)
    Reflections on a Broken Mirror
    Sunday Sound

    Encore:
    Goodbye Wheeling
    Older Guys

    Overall a really good show. The band seemed really into it tonight (and very much stoned :mrgreen: ) In fact Adam appeared to be blazing right on stage

    Awesome!! Sounds like you had a great time. I am happy to see they are sticking with the same formula (2 really long sets). I can't wait for the Tulsa show.

    Sunday Sound is such a great song live. It always gets a big sing along and some dancing going. How was Star or Stone? That is still my favorite of his new songs, although 100 Days of Rain is right there. And Beware.

    I have been seriously trying to figure out how to go to California and see them again. The shows I saw out there last year were incredible.

    "Sunday Sound" was amazing. They jammed the ending out much longer than I've ever heard them do before. You could tell from their faces they were trying some different things last night. Lots of smiles and band interaction onstage. "Star or Stone" and "100 Days of Rain" both sounded really good. They sounded exactly like the record. I haven't officially read this anywhere, but my guess is they recorded "Big Moon Ritual" live in the studio with no overdubs.
    The first set dragged a little bit as it was more mellow, but the place was hoppin' for the upbeat second set. It's too bad several people bailed because it was so late on a weeknight. There was also a signed/numbered poster for sale. I'll take a pic of mine and post it later.

    Check out updated website for CRB: http://www.chrisrobinsonbrotherhood.com ... on-Ritual/. Much more user-friendly than old one. And, also worth checking out, trippy video w/ nice instrumental jam is on the homepage.

    Wow...of the four times I've seen The Brotherhood live, tonight in Cleveland was far and away the best. The band was on, the crowd was loud and singing along to everything, and the setlist was perfect. Not quite as long as the Columbus show, but in my opinion...waaaaay better

    Set 1:
    Tomorrow Blues
    Someday Past The Sunset
    Tulsa Yesterday
    JUST LIKE TOM THUMB'S BLUES!!!!
    Little Lizzie Mae
    Star Or Stone
    Do Right Woman, Do Right Man
    Vibration & Light Suite

    Set 2:
    Saturday Night in Oak Grove Louisiana
    Rosalee
    Tumbleweed In Eden
    Never Been To Spain
    Ride
    I Ain't Hiding
    SILVER CAR
    Sunday Sound

    Encore:
    Sugaree

    AMAZING set!!! You got to see what were apparently some very special shows as both Neil and Chris shouted out to the Ohio fans on Facebook the other day and they never do that! I hope the recordings are good. I may pick this one up!

    I'm supposed to go check CRB out at the Targhee Music fest along with Trigger Hippy and the Drive By Truckers. Can't wait. Maybe Chris will get on stage and jam with Gorman and Trigger Hippy...

    Just downloaded the 6/22 show (my birthday) and I am not the least bit disappointed. Sounds fucking great.

    Ok, any recommendations on CRB shows to pick up other than the 6/22 and 6/23? Looking for similar sound quality, set list is much less important to me.

    Sound quality is always the issue with CRB boots. They tend to be all over the place. I don't personally have any other "official boots", but I gave parts of the Milwaukee show a listen and it sounded solid
