Them Crooked Vultures appear to be running the most infuriatingly effective marketing campaign in the history of frigging music (apologies to Miles). They have grown men and women obsessively trawling the slowly evolving website for any smidge of information or audio. There are a grand total of about 4 snipits on youtube from the Chicago gig - all of them dreadful cameraphone stuff that I'm trying not to listen to. It is DRIVING ME NUTS.
At the same time I love the fact that apart from those on stage in Chicago on Sunday, and their immediate collaborators/partners/blood relatives, it seems nobody had any idea what they sounded like until they walked out on stage.
But dear gong, enough with the foreplay/strip tease already
