xACT 2.28 (batch rename, FLAC encode, FLAC tags, shntool len)After the show on Friday I have to say this whole debate actually seems rather silly. Stylistically the changes are more subtle that you’d think…and Gibb Droll on guitar absolutely shreds. IMO, his style/tone has a good bit in common with R.S.

I know some good bands have played there, but I can’t bring myself to fork over VIP money without a weather report or covered seats! Also you might tell folks there’s almost nowhere to stay in Black Mountain if they are a designated drinker. I hope standing room is not a sell out if I decide to go at the last minute, but I tested my luck last year in the trans-Coloradan disaster dodge. I’m sure it will be historic wherever the smoke follows you.FYI:
According to one of my sources, the show is nowhere near selling out, so you probably don’t have to worry about that. Not sure about VIP tickets selling out.
Also, there are no seats. It’s just a big field and everyone brings their own camp chairs or blankets to sit on the lawn. No chairs allowed at all in front of the soundboard.
Edit: Looks like I was wrong about the chair situation. Last night was the first time they’ve ever had a VIP section that big or chairs set up like that.
I’ve been listening to Bruce since the mid 80’s (about since I was 10 years old) and I’ve always thought of Bruce as a jazz man first and foremost. Any forays into rock, pop, folk, bluegrass, etc. just happen to be what he’s doing *at that point in time.* Nothing more, nothing less. I’ve never felt comfortable pigeon-holing Bruce as anything other than a jazz man. Sure he wants to go a more folky direction at this point in time. That genre is pretty popular right now (yes, even in NYC) with the likes of Mumford & Sons, Avett Bros., etc. so it makes sense.
My personal feeling is that you can take the man out of the jazz, but you can’t take the jazz out of the man.
Yawn-worthy lineup this year for Biltmore IMO.

Bruce has only played consecutive years at Biltmore once so it’s no surprise really. I’m sure he’ll be back next year.

Kinda sad really. I’m no prude…I personally don’t care what anyone ingests into their own body but if you are gonna do it, at least be able to handle it.
Quote:Bruce brings his son Keith out (enrolled at UNCA) with his coach and one other (team mate?) and announces he’s gonna sing the National Anthem (tonight I think?) at the UNCA vs UNC basketball game.This was head coach Eddie Biedenbach and assistant coach (UNCA Alum) Brett Carey. The UNC @ UNCA game where Bruce and Sonny will perform the National Anthem is on November 13th.
I thought I had it all covered but I missed the Straight, No Chaser segment of Rainbow’s Cadillac…I don’t feel so bad though because you missed the Who Knows tease towards the end of the same song.
Thanks for the setlist!
Crisis averted. Biltmore show taped. Haven’t listened yet but if it sounds OK I’ll try to have it up soon. Will post here when done.
Goodnight.
It’s definitely not a venue issue.
Multiple recent reports of being shut down by Bruce’s staff on taperssection.com.
I only posted about this here to see if we could get some clarification on the matter from si_twining since he is connected with the organization. I guess at this point clarification isn’t necessary as it’s been reported that Bruce’s staff is shutting down taping (not the venues and not Bela’s staff) and they have the final say apparently. It would be nice if they would update the policy on the website so people are informed.
Jonathan wrote:The tickets for last years show said “recording not permitted”, or words to that effect, but there were a handful of audience recorders, so I think the folks at the Biltmore must’ve known Bruce doesn’t mind tapers.Ok, I recorded the show last year but I got my ticket through someone who works at the Estate…must’ve been a special ticket because it didn’t say that … hopefully tapers will be ok. I know the band is cool with taping…last couple years Bobby Hornsby has come by to check on the tapers and thank us for being there…Very cool fellow…
