Found a last second ride from Lawrence to St. Louis (original ride fell through). Get to St. Louis about 5:30 PM. Find out my sister is way, way sick, can't make the show.

Uncle Tupelo live at the Vic Theatre, Chicago 10/15/93.

I'd be curious to see the breakdown for each age group on how they came to be Jay fans. I'm guessing the 31 and up guys and gals would be heavier in the UT influence versus the younger guys who came to Jay through Son Volt or even Wilco.

Personaly I'm a 38/UT kinda guy.

Anybody care to add?

hey thanks for the hard work guys! I did some research to see if I could come up with the individual set lists for these demos (I used to have the "Not Forever, Just For Now" cassette waaay back in the day) and I discovered that there's a somewhat famous boot called "Not Forever, Just For Now" from ...

Bono from U2, right...

Hey, that's cool. Just thought maybe it wasn't a coincidence, but it is. Great topic, btw.
