OCTOBER 12,
2002: Des Moines Civic

Due to poor
responses, I haven't made the last two months of downloads a "vote
for" download. However, I am going to give this another try. I
really appreciate feedback from you, and with this, the 6th download
of the year, I think it's a good time to try again. If you haven't
yet registered for the
4thellamas.com message board, please do so now. After you do, go to
the downloads thread and
post some
feedback on this show, and then take a moment to
vote for the
download you would like to see released in November. Please try
to vote by the 28th. After you've voted, you can
post a request
for a future download. Remember, this site will be as good as
you help make it!
In the summer of
2002, after a several months of being unemployed, I took a job at
Ultimate Electronics. A three-week training period would begin in
late September, and I would start working at the store in October.
To celebrate, I asked my manager to let me have a couple days to do
a swing with Cowboy Junkies, hitting shows in Nebraska and Iowa. I
wasn't sure how much time I would have to travel with the band with
the new job and wanted to get a last swing in. I drove out to
Nebraska on Friday afternoon, found a hotel and went to the show at
The Music Box, which was an unmitigated disaster featuring the worst
geese ever. The band soldiered on and played well, but you know it's
a bad night for geese when someone from the crowd gets up and tells
her fellow concert-goers that she hopes they will be quiet during
the Junkies after the opening act finishes.
The next day, I
drove out to Des Moines, again getting a hotel. I went to soundcheck
and then found a nice little out-of-the-way Italian place whose name
I can't remember for dinner. The venue was very nice, an expansive
little theater, and seemed promising for a quiet show, which in fact
is what happened. The audience was beautifully appreciative, and the
band turned in an absolutely stunning performance, filled with some
rarely-played gems. From the first notes of the show opener,
Powderfinger, it was apparent that this would be a special night.
The highlight for me was Witches, making the drive out and the
previous night's geese-fest all worth it. There isn't a wasted
moment in this entire show, and right after it ended I knew it would
always be a favorite.
This is the first
show from the lower-key 2002 tour in the SOTM download series. I
hope you like it as much as I enjoyed it!
