somewhere out in america, its starting to rain. can you tell me one thing youll remember about me?

 

As good as the song August and Everything After is, I can't imagine a world without a hard copy of Raining in Baltimore. One of the all-time best

 

Okay, so there are a couple of us on the B Sides thread that want to band together and buy one of the live shows. It supposedly has a killer version of Round Here that is long, and essential. If anyone is interested in helping out, please PM me. Also, come on over to the B Sides thread. Great place. Total cost is $13 and we so far have 3 people willing to split it.


Counting Crows - 8/8/08 The Borgata, Atlantic City, NJ

 

you guys could just rip audio from this video. I think its the source for that bootleg anyway.

 

Speaking of Counting Crows, I wrote about Hard Candy for our Thanksgiving/ThanksSpinning feature over at Modern Vinyl.

Speaking of Crows bootlegs

Counting Crows 1993: “This is the beginning of our first tour, ever, so we’re kinda kicked about that” | Fuel/Friends Music Blog

This one is an absolutely stellar set. If anything, make sure to check out Margery Dreams of Horses. It is an August and Everything After b-side that is probably my favorite b-side they have!

 

That's a very odd tweet. Seems sorta like he's answering a question I don't see asked.......also "when we tour", is he talking imminently, down the road, or what ?? Lastly, announcing that your next tour will NOT be all songs from a single album is kinda a non-announcement, no? Isn't that what every CC tour is ?? A celebration of all 7 albums ???

 

Few albums have better bookends than AAEA

 

There was a tweet earlier that said “hey are you going on tour?” and he responded “Oh yes.” I’m guessing it was just adding onto that sentiment. Maybe they’ll be playing each album in full in different cities? (A guy can dream....)

 

Adam has a new podcast with music journalist James Campion called Underwater Sunshine. Only one episode so far and it's a little all over the place but I really enjoyed it. They talk about moving and the concept of home and then Adam plays some songs he likes and says what he likes about them. I'd recommend it: | Underwater Sunshine: The Podcast

 

Can we talk about how underrated "She Don't Want Nobody Near" is?

 

It goes without saying, but man, great lyrics

 

my moms favorite band, long december was her favorite song ever

 

oh yeah. wish they'd play it live again!

 

Going on tour with LIVE:
