The Black Crowes kick off the first night of what used to be a four night run, but was recently scaled back to a three night run at NYC’s Hammerstein
he club scene has long been a productive shed for bands that most of pop culture really don’t appreciate. Take Yo La Tengo, Les Savy Fav or Lambchop – they’ve been playing a long time but haven’t reached theater status yet. Two bands sharing the bill at The Clubhouse in Tempe: Earl Greyhound and Portugal The Man brought their uncanny ability to awe and maybe one day earn their name in bigger lights.
Like The Joshua Tree, the inaugural title of the U2 reissue series begun last year, the recently released double disc sets of the band’s first three albums and their initial live release are truly deluxe packages. Bound like books and enclosed in slipcases, the CD graphics of the archival sets, replete with historical detail, expand on the originals. The liner note essays can be a bit melodramatic, yet The Edge’s own recollections on the recordings, original sessions and B-sides, live shows and alternate takes are the epitome of informality.
Thanks to Gabe for sending in tonight’s tour ending setlist…
