Catch Nels before Thurston in Seattle tomorrow
 

Just a heads up for those Seattle area fans attending Thurston's show tomorrow... the Nels Cline Singers are playing at the Triple Door, not too far away from Neumo's, as well, but there's an early show at 7, which you can probably catch before Thurston hits the stage (doors for Thurston are at 8). There's a 9pm late show for Nels too, but I definitely need me some "Blue turns to silver and silver smiles, silver smiles a crocodile mile, oh yeah".

Hell, Thurston might even be there!

AND I HOPE YOU'RE ALL GOING TO NEIL YOUNG TONIGHT.

uh, I wish I live in Seattle.

i wasn't really in gtr nerd mode last night, but for those who are, the first 4 songs + title track are in the C tuning, 'friend' thru 'honest j' are in some kinda D tuning. shrug.

The Thurston show in Seattle last night was just fucking brilliant. I couldn't have asked for more!

Thanks for an evening full of great music and organic melon!

are you the one that won the organic melon?

anyway... both shows were fucking amazing.One of the best nights of my life. the live stuff from thurston is way better than the cd and i like the cd alot.

chris it was nice to see you too!! sorry we didnt get to hang out more.. get a hold of me next time you come down for a show!!

how was nels?

singers setlist, anyone?

I wish I won the melon! I was more towards the back of the room and didn't know the answer... :mad:

But the show was awesome... and I find it funny that Chris was there. I have had contact with him in the past but I have never met him. I wouldn't even recognize him...

But man, what a great band Thurston put together! Loved it!!!

what's funnier (maybe) is that the whole band was staying at the same [not great] hotel that i was. we had seen steve at the neil young show the night before, and there he was in the lobby on the way to soundcheck when we were trying to go for dinner (our cab never came, is that a common trend among seattle cabs?).


as for the nels cline singers set, he did mention all of the pieces by name at the end but i only remember "blues, too" "something about david H" (i think), and he mentioned one was off of the new album. there were 2 others, sorry.

that's cool, thanks Chris!

Do you guys remember who Matt (the bassist) was introduced as?

death..?

Unfortunately, YES.

This ain't Canada... every man for himself. ;)
