Their ability to amaze and impress me for so many years seems to have no limits.
Still nobody like them!
They're doing a second livestream show next Sunday.
We purchased the first one last Sunday evening!Quote:

I've heard this song many times from the original recoding in 2000 and it was always one I skipped past or toned out. Just seemed sappy to me. This performance really grabbed me. I was comparing it to the original and it is amazing how much more depth and emotion comes through 20 years later. I'm about the same age as Chris, and assume the rest of the band, and there is new meaning to a song like this when you hit 40 and think about your parents, your kids, and the rest of your life. I think that comes through in this performance. I also didn't realize Tim O'Brien was a co-writer on it. Thanks for sharing.
That NC record was one of the things that got me into acoustic music. Even with Thile’s amazing playing, the mandolin parts didn’t really grab me then (that took a few more years) but I just loved the songs and the harmonies. There is an innocence and purity on that record that seems unique to that project and that moment in time.
Thanks for posting this video; I really enjoyed it.
Thanks for posting this Daryl.
I answered my own question! When you go to purchase tickets, the fine print states that replay will be available for both nights until 3/14/21. So you can watch the show from 2/21 now if you purchase tickets to it. NFI, just happy to see them playing!
Chris turn 40 a week ago.
That's a spectacular recording by the way. The instruments all sound great, the space sounds natural and lovely, and the subtle subtle stereo field seems just right - at least to me. I think that's a Neumann USM 69, a stereo mic that I think I first encountered at WNYC's live music production. Anyway, I like everything about this video.
Good to see you here Marty. Cafe is awesome , lots to explore and learn, manyQuote:

Saw you mentioned a delivery from TMS tonight on the AGF. TMS is a great place, Dennis and James run a safe ship-lots of candy at that store. i keep a weekly check on the used items. and the classifieds here are stellar as well.
mandolins are very addictive, just a heads up. you'll know you've been bit when you list some of those excellent guitars for sale-lol

anybody notice that oval hole octave(i assume octave, looks pretty long scale though) in the background on the video?
see a slight edge of what might be another mandolin family member there also.
wonder who those belong too

my wife and i took a trip to nashvegas when NC did a return in 2014(i think it was 14). they did a show at the Ryman Auditorium. it was pretty unreal. they had not played together for years, but man they were hard driving and dead on with the endings. amazing artists, all three of them.

They belong to Chris, he's played them both for years. The Flatiron OM/zouk he uses for Smoothie Song. The reddish one is a Lawrence Smart mandola he uses for... ah I forget what he uses it for.Quote:

Tonight's show was great, as usual.
What a treat!
Can anyone post setlists? I understand each show was supposed to be completely different setlists
If/when I go back and re-watch, maybe I can do that.Quote:

I may be getting the 2 sets mixed up a little.
My wife and I throughly enjoyed it.
Last night, from memory, also saw: This Side, I Should Have Known Better, Scotch & Chocholate, Tomorrow is a Long Time, Why Should the Fire Die, 21st of May, among others.
I truly love those three together...
Being the mando nerd I am, what was the A-model mando Thile was playing at the first set?
I didn't see the stream, but is it not the Lawrence Smart mandola I mentioned earlier in this thread?Quote:
