counting crows 05/05/03
I started this blog a couple of years ago, and one of my early posts was on the "secret" Counting Crows show in 2003 at the Shim Sham club in New Orleans. I only posted a couple of the tracks from the show - I think I was just daunted at having to link to 50 different tracks (it was a long, long show), and every now and then when I see the original post I think about how I should put up the rest of the show.
Well here it is! Between 1999 and 2003 Adam Duritz and other members of Counting Crows played a secret show at the Shim Sham Club in New Orleans each May - corresponding with one of the two Jazz Fest weekends.
Always amazing concerts, Adam and Co would slowly but surely get very, very drunk over the course of the shows, playing covers, each one with different friends contributing in some way.
Here's the last Counting Crows Shim Sham show. Enjoy.

hey - thanks for this again. question, i think you MAY be missing one song - girl from the north country. is that true? i could be wrong. thanks.
good catch. i was recording this show on minidisc and the minidisc ran out of space sometime towards the end of the show and I didnt catch it immediately.
i missed girl from.. before I swapped out minidiscs. you can hear the cut on the show.
Don't want to complain but
Band Talk (Cocaine Intro)

what a wonderful show that was...good times. too bad the shim sham club is no more. one eyed jacks is nice though i must admit. ;)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I love it, and you, consequently:)
Great show. Thanks for taking the time to post. I wish I would have caught one of these shows. Never heard about them until I found this site.. Thanks again....
I only have heard a few of these - but they are great! Very much enjoying them - thanks.
BtW - the track you have marked Zeppelin's Night Flight is actually an America cover - a song called, "Sister Golden Hair."
Cheers.
...and I was so looking forward to a Night Flight cover!
Hey. I cant thank you enough for this my friend...Im too young to follow the band to every venue they go to or I would. Thanks and thanks again. If I havent allready, I cant thank you enough. Perfection. Great. Love it.
Do you have any of the other Shim Sham Club appearances? ... I'm looking for the 5/5/00 set ... In particular, their cover of Townes Van Zandt's Pancho and Lefty ... I can't find it anywhere
