Cowboy Junkies 1998-08-20 @ Royce Hall - Los Angeles, CA

This is the first show from the 1998 tour. In 1998, the band toured in support of "Miles from Our Home," a complex record that featured standard rockers like the title cut and mournful beauties like "No Birds Today." The Junkies also appeared on the phenomenally popular Lillith Fair tour that year. As they had started to do on the 1996 tour, the band included a couple of acoustic numbers in their sets on this tour. A highlight from this show is "Something More Besides You," which in my opinion is an example of how Michael Timmins can write complex songs that blend hope and fear or despair all at the same time. This song quickly became one of my favorites, along with "Ring on the Sill" and "Witches." Over the years, the band has played a lot of excellent shows in California. In fact, it might be one of the best states to live in if you are a hardcore llama. I hope you all enjoy this excellent show!

Foolishness (2008-03-07)

The comments above were taken from the website. The comments below are mine.
You can decode the Lossless audio FLAC files into WAV files with
your favorite decoder ( see
) then write them to a CD with no gaps
between the tracks (i.e. Disk At Once) for a complete "Live"
show.
When you finish downloading this Torrent you can decode the FLAC files into a different folder to make the CDs. That way you can continue to seed the show for awhile.
I'm at the end of a long, very slow pipe and I stupidly put up all 25 shows at the same time. So when one show completes I pause it so the others will speed up. I didn't expect that there would be so many people who hadn't gotten the shows from http://www.4thellamas.com/index.htm .
This was an experiment for people who were on dial-up and couldn't download easily from the site. I do leave the second machine in the other room seeding all the shows, but it isn't as fast as this one. I'll keep seeding, but help with that from the faster machines out there is appreciated.
Thanks.
These shows are out here because the band gave permission.
