If you haven't heard by now, Railroad Earth has been on FIRE recently...and i figured that I would share this little gem with everybody

Check out this AMAZING recording of their show at the Ogden Theater in Denver this past weekend...http://www.archive.org/details/rre2009-04-04.akg-dpa

Both Friday and Saturdays shows are up already...If you have some time to spend on the archive website there are TONS of recent RrE shows and thousands of other great bands as well. This is where I have been getting most of my music from recently...just figured that I would share the wealth.

Hope you enjoy.

I could not agree more!  I saw them a couple weekends ago at the Berrymore Theatre in Madison, WI and they were damn excellent.  They sound so tight but still manage a great deal of improvisation.  I am really looking forward to their two shows at Telluride!  People who are trying to trade their RRE tickets are insane!

Hey thanks for the link!

Saw RRE Fri night at the Ogden with friends Jen and Doug, and we had a great time.  I hadn't seen them since their last and only Tride appearance, wow is all i can say.  My new favorite band!  Good times...

Yes indeed!   They are on fire. I think that they are the finest touring band out there currently and can't wait for them to blow the Telluride crowd away.

Sweet...thanks gipper!!!  Cheers

And I'm glad that I'm not the only one totally obsessed with these guys!!!  I have not been able to stop listening to them for the past two weeks!!!  I can't wait for June...

I think "Colorado" HAS to have been written about Telluride...the lyrics just fit too perfectly!!! Sunshine

I am a HUGE fan of RRE!  Was blissed out over the last weekend and looks like my summer is going to be full of Hobos.  SO STOKED... Crystal Bay here I come!  RRE @ RR has been my dream for a few years and now it is coming true!

I loved the Split Lip set!  I have been wanting to see them for so long and wish I wouldnt have waited.  I'm on the train!  Sweet pics for sure!

Hey, Cap’n! I have been listening to their weekend shows all afternoon… there’s that perma-grin I had all weekend long!

I love that the energy of the audience carries through the recordings. I don’t know if the festivarians know exactly what they are in for, but they should DEFINITELY stick around after Elvis Friday night for this show.

Man, I’ll be stuck on these guys for a while for sure! Headphones Thanks for bringing them back to TBF, Planet Bluegrass! Thumbs Up

Jen

PS The "Colorado" tune will be the theme song for Summer '09. I can't get it outta my head!  Flyer

It's awesome to see veterans acting like newbies/virgins when it comes to Railroad Earth.

The first time I heard these boys from Stillwater, NJ was a whopping first hour into my inaugural Telluride Bluegrass Festival. They were the 2nd act on the Thursday, June 21, 2001.

Here is their setlist:

 06/21/01 (Thu)  Telluride Bluegrass Festival @ Town Park - Telluride, CO
    Set 1: Bird in The House, Head, Lordy Lordy, Seven Story Mountain, Black Bear, Colorado, E: Cold Water

Looks like I've been hooked on a few things ever since then!  :hop :hop :hop
