Old 97's Roll Call
January 19, 2004 at 04:09 PM UTC

So, other than Rhett, who's going?
Anyone tempted to sell their tickets for $40 to the guy on the tickets wanted page? For $40 you could go see 8 shitty Black Cat shows.
Friday night, Old 97's, I might need to drink 30 beers.

I have to miss it. I'd love to go, but can't – am headed out of town for my first skiing trip ever. And, it helps that I get to miss a Rhett siting…

I didnt get mine either, I didnt fancy shows 3 nights in a row. I guess this makes my decision easy. Gomez and Starsailor it is for me.

Sold our extra one ticket for $15. Wouldn't sell the other two for $100 each…
Here's the set list for the Chicago show Friday night (taken from an Old 97's message board) (why he needed to do two songs off of the solo album after playing Chicago at least 8 or 9 times solo is beyond me):
Victoria
Barrier
Smokers (a Murry song with the refrain "she's a singer, I'm a smoker")
Streets of Where I'm From
Won't (be home no more)
Buick
WTX Teardrops
Indef (complete with audience participation)
Cliff (Rhett flubbed the lyrics, so we didn't get to yell "asshole")
Salome
Let the Train Whistle Blow(Johnny Cash cover)
Moonlight (previously a Ranchero's tune?)
Designs
Dressing (with Ken singing backup!)
Devil's
Big Brown Eyes
Doreen
——–
2 Rhett acoustic: The El & Come Around
Val (Murry, an acoustic guitar, and Rhett's backup–hello goosebumps!)
Shoe (didn't play)
Indef (written twice, didn't play this time)
Time
Lonely Holiday was in there somewhere too, but not written on the
list…

It was a late show, there was another 3 band bill at the club earlier the same night…so it's quite possible the set time was shorter…i was thinking the same thing.
Chicago only had one opener, the damnwells. make sure you get to Friday's show early. Murry's wife Grey Delisle plays some tasty country tunes, with Murry on bass, and former Lone Justice member Marvin Etzioni stealing the show on mandolin.

hmm, this seems like a shorter set than has been reported elsewhere, with fewer "new" songs … maybe they shortened it in Chicago because Rhett has played there so many times, and they'll give DC a little more love? a boy can always dream…
I'm in, for what it's worth.

As much as I'd like to see the Old 97s, I'll be too busy hobnobbing with the Sundance glitterati on the slopes of Park City.

I'll be there, thanks to my girlfriend and her pretty thoughtful X-mas presents.
GGW, when did you head out to Sundance? I just got back last night, but only managed to catch a 2 movies, since the skiing was so much fun.
I also managed to see Hank Azaria in a bar in Park City, which was kind of cool.

I'll be out there on Friday. I doubt I'll see any movies. I'm going for the skiing.
