So, who's gonna go up in the hot air balloons during the thunderstorms?

Great show last night. Heavy rain and high winds held off providing only cool weather and a light mist throughout. Buzzards performed and Jack played barefoot through most of the set due to the wet stage posing a slipping hazard. By the end of the show, he'd likely created another 7,628 ardent fans. Damn him.

It's crossed my mind to wonder how he might feel about him taking his shoes off being the element of the show that we've talked about the most

Well, two posts.Kali Durga wrote:It's crossed my mind to wonder how he might feel about him taking his shoes off being the element of the show that we've talked about the most

But actually, I'd say it was probably at the heart of the way this show turned out. The moment he comes on stage, he has a major struggle to contend with (i.e. not falling over), these are therefore PERFECT conditions for a JW show right from the jump, and sure enough, you got an awesome one.

This show was awesome. Met Kali and Jack Wolfe III of twitter fame. Jack broke out the Gretsch triple jet which was a welcome sight. Was as close as could be and Jack and I locked eyes a couple of times which was awesome.

I've met Jack Wolfe and his father a few times. Both extremely nice people. Spent an hour or so at TMR with them both before the Chattanooga show and then we both parted ways and were next to eachother in line for a good 5 hours before the show. Then I was in line with Jack and his father for 17 hours for RSD at TMR..both very nice both events.JWhiteIII wrote:This show was awesome. Met Kali and Jack Wolfe III of twitter fame.

A little off topic, yes but I know Jack Wolfe is a member of Swirl as of a month ago but has yet to make a post...so come out come out where ever you are
I know from talking to him that he would have many things to contribute to this forum. SO I'M CALLING YOU OUT JACK!!!!

Was definitely good to meet you, Matt, and I'm glad you were able to be there. And, yes, young Jack needs to make his presence known here.JWhiteIII wrote:This show was awesome.

During which song did you see the Gretsch used? I thought he used the Tele for all of the electric songs.

Well, heck if you aren't right. I obviously wasn't paying enough attention to the guitars, must've apparently been distracted by other things...
