Dudes, the new Cobra Verde album kicks so much ass I can’t even put it into words. I got it in the mail from their website the other day and haven’t stopped listening to it yet. All joking aside, they’re the best band in the world right now except for J.

P.S.
Did I mention it rocks?m402 – yeah, I was probably the guy standing in front of you. I was sitting on the speaker to the left of the stage and my friend Al was the big guy with the Motorhead shirt
Jaron – I’m sure J doesn’t mind when people shout requests, especially when he asks for them
I don’t know if everybody all ready knows this or not, but you can download this concert at http://www.corndogs.org Pretty cool camera angles.

Remember me from the Fog show at the Barrymore in March of 2001? We’re from the same town. Could you email me? Thanks.

Hi Dude-
Were you one of the guys I talked to last night? I also had a good time at the Annex. The crowd was kind of small though. J doesn’t seem to draw that big of a crowd in Madison for some reason. I had the opposite reaction to Cobra Verde – I thought they were great. I even bought the cd they were selling. At the beginning of Cobra Verde’s set J was wandering around and I got him to sign my flier to the show. J’s set list looked pretty similar to the one posted from the Columbus show. But he played more songs off of More Light. I saw someone grab the set list and another person taking pics, so hopefully they will be posted. Unlike the Chicago show I went to last December, J had an extra pedal which enabled him to play better and longer solos. Before a song began, he would play the chords which would serve as the background during his guitar solo. The pedal would digitally record these background chords and then replay them when it was solo time. It looked pretty neat. I should get one of those pedals for myself because it seems like an excellent way for someone who is playing alone to practice solos. The Stooges songs in the encore were Loose and then TV Eye. They kind of ran together so it did seem like one song. The only thing I disliked about the show is that I was stuck standing next to the drunkest, dumbest guy I’ve ever seen at a J show. This guy was a total prick. After one song he said to J, “hey, dude, you better clear your throatâ€
They have a website too:
If the club opens up a few hours before the show sometime during the day, there may not be anyone at the door and you can just walk right in. You may have to kill a few hours inside though. I would just hang around the door and wait until an opportunity arises. If you see J, explain your situation and ask him to put you on his guest list. Get a fake ID. Bribe the door man with a $100 bill. Find another door into the club and sneak in. Tell the doorman you just want to go inside so you can fill out an application for employment. If you see the opening band hauling thier equipment in, grab an amplifier or something and haul it in and look like you know exactly what you’re doing. Walk into the front door before the show carrying a guitar case and maybe people won’t mess with you. Do whatever you can… About 8 years ago I was too young for a show and I ended up sneaking into another part of the building and I was at least able to listen to it. Whatever you do, don’t give up. You’d be suprised what you can get away with in this world.

If you make it in, say hi to me, I’ll probably be there.What kind of jerk steals J’s set list before the show even starts? For crying out loud, show J a little respect and have some dignity.

Another Girl Another Planet:
I’d say the nose, the way they raise their eyebrows when they’re getting their picture taken, and the hair, although I’ve never seen J wear a ponytail. Ried has more facial hair too.
Dinosaur Jr. is my all time favorite band BECAUSE it addresses sadness and depression. Read J’s lyrics for crying out loud. Depressing and sad music is awesome to listen to because you hear that someone else (J) feels the same way you do. J has perfected the whole "my girlfriend just dumped me" song genre.

Good news! My recording of the show has been successfully uploaded to Blah’s ftp. Once again, don’t expect superb sound quality, but its still a fun listen. Later-
