Vault Release #10 - No Code Show 2014 Moline

[VinylGuy]

We need Vault shows from the No Code tour. Any Jack show will do actually...

Since 2000 the following shows have NOT been released in the official bootleg program

Santa Barbara '03.
Shows from VFC tour '04
House of Blues '05
Astoria - UK '06.
Whole tour from '07.
Alpine Valley '11.
Philadelhia '12

All worthy of a Vault release, all would have been a better choice than Moline

all of these are awesome yes.

As PJ goes, I can live in the 2000 tour until the day I die.

At the end of the day, this is all you really need.

I was at this show. I'd probably buy it but I'm not in the club.

The choices for Vault releases are sometimes weird. Don't get me wrong, I've listened to this show a couple of times and it's great but it's still available on CD or digital download from the store and it's a fairly recent show. It doesn't scream 'Vault' to me, just because they played an album in full.

As this is the 'No Code' show, does this imply they have nothing from '96 to actually release? Do they not have Berlin '96 tapes that they can mix/master for release?

PJ were pioneers when it came to releasing the official shows starting in 2000, but the way they've managed the pre-2000 years is puzzling and slightly frustrating. We know they only recorded certain shows in 1998 due to the cost of recording in specific venues, but we know next to nothing about other years. Is this also the case for 1994-1996?

I'm grateful that the Dylan camp has a good handle on Bob's archives. The Bootleg Series are what other artists/bands should strive for. Neil Young Archives are vast but it's a bit of a mess and he's been hyping stuff up for so long without delivering that it gets frustrating.

While I'm sure I've made more than my share of snarky comments about PJ's Vault series, which has a few excellent entries but on the whole has been pretty disappointing, I think I've more or less accepted that this series isn't going to become something that's exciting to me and at this point am just happy to take the good ones when they come and happier to save the money on the rest. There is so much live PJ out there already -- countless shows from 2000 and beyond, and between official releases and high quality bootlegs, probably as much pre-2000 as is reasonable to expect. I'm still holding out hope that we'll get a 1996 or March 1998 show someday, but for as often as I listen to PJ nowadays, Berlin '96 and Melbourne '98 scratch the itch when I'm in the mood.

That said, I think a little transparency and goodwill PR would go a long way towards improving the perception of this program. It always feels like there is this contemptuous us vs. them mentality that the PJ organization fosters toward its customer base, like every drip of crap they dole out is manna from heaven and anyone who thinks otherwise is an unworthy ingrate. Compare that to David Lemieux who manages the Grateful Dead's vault, who at the end of the day is superfan #1 and is not only as excited as the fanbase for as much stuff to come out of the vault as possible, but is extremely transparent about his process, why he chooses what he chooses, what they have in the vault to begin with, when new sources come to light, etc. etc. It not only fosters engagement between the listener and the organization, but it tempers expectations -- the fans have some sense of what's on the table for release and what isn't. It just seems like that little bit of human "niceness" goes a long way, y'know?

But in the end -- you know, whatever. As PJ goes, I can live in the 2000 tour until the day I die.

This is all well said. Personally, I can live with 2000 and 2006 until the end of time. Like you said, some dialogue and communication would go a long way.
In regards to Bob Dylan, there is the new archive place in Tulsa which will be open to the public within the next year or so. Those in charge of the Bootleg Series often gauge what people are looking for with polls about what fans would be most interested in, and we've heard lots over the last few years about what is in the vaults and what the next few releases of the Bootleg Series are likely to contain. I love that - it gives us something to look forward to.

With regards to PJ, they call it The Vault and then release a show seemingly at random. I hate to complain, and I'm grateful that we got Soldier Field, Inglewood '98, Seattle '93 etc. But I'm left scratching my head when they release the likes of Bellingham 2000 and Missoula 2005 which are just full of screw-ups and generally rough performances by anyone's standards. What is the benefit of releasing these shows?

Anyways, like you said it's best just to not expect much and be pleasantly surprised if something good is released

I kinda like they release something unexpected too...this show is important because they played NC front to back...its a very cool item to have on vinyl.

I want BA 2005 night 1 on vinyl please.....

Man, I kinda miss when they were using basecamp to distribute their shows in 2005-06.

Well, I guess I’m wondering if Brett will be handling the vault going forward.

I added it to the cart to check, and it was +$22 with tax and shipping, so it probably depends on your location and sales tax. But expect to pay at least $17 shipping.
