    I saw someone post they were doing the 1pm Fenway tour and saw James Taylor do his soundcheck....

    However between 3 and 5 seems logical to me also!

    That was me. We're staying at the Verb Hotel in a room facing Fenway and heard the sound check starting a few minutes before 1. We ran over to the stadium and got on the 1:00 tour (we like doing stadium tours anyway). We were told that we couldn't take pictures during sound check as we were videotaping some of it. Not to worry -- sound check went on until around 4:30, and I was taping it from my room at the hotel! You will be able to hear sound check anywhere around Fenway. Very loud!
    By the way, the sound last night inside the stadium at the concert was incredible. Even Jackson Brown (the opener) said how awesome the sound was for any concert venue.
    Wait, Jackson Browne just played Fenway too? So we are definitely hearing "I am a Patriot" tomorrow. Nice.

    I just walked by and didn't seem like much was happening. I guess I missed it?

    It was just 30 second at most snippets. More like roadies checking the equipment. I did hear about 30 seconds of the bass line for Satan's Bed. Oh well. I was so excited for a real full-fledged sound check.

    My apologies if you walked out of your way because of me.
