Imagine if you went there just expecting to see Elliott acoustically and then this happened, bloody hell. Wish I wasn't a kid when all this was happening.
Oh man, I grew up in Portland and was in high school when this concert took place. I literally lived in close proximity to him and never got to see him. I second your sentiment.
man, he had nothing but fucking HITS. like bro, fucking banger and banger. nothing less. how i wish he was still here. and how i wish there was a good quality bootleg album of live rips like these.

I think it was in 96' or 97' I went to see Sebadoh at the howling wolf. I got there early as I liked to hear the sound check. I sat at the bar, Elliott came out. We talked. I noticed his Mighty Mouse tattoo, asked him what he thought about Texas (noticed his other tattoo)...., the bartender served us spaghetti and we ate together and I thought he was just some random nice but haggard N.O. dude. I left and then came back in time to see the opener which holy crap! was Elliott who then proceeded to blow me away. I/we had never heard of him. All of Sebadoh (Jason, Lou, Eric ) stood next to me and watched in awe while the talkers talked behind us he played alone on a chair. twas a beautiful night. I had been studying classical guitar and voice at this time for 3 years so to witness him totally usurp classically "good" voice and guitar was awesome. thanks for posting this.
Just found this video. Thank you so much for posting! I saw him a week later at the 9:30 Club in DC. My memory for the last 20 years was of being disappointed w. the concert because I really wanted an acoustic performance. I was So Very Wrong. This concert is Amazing! Wish I realized how wonderful it was back then instead of so much later. Wow!
Thank you for uploading this. I find it quite strange how Elliott would close some of his sets with songs which had no official release at the time 'Twilight' here and 'Flowers For Charlie' on a couple of other sets. Having heard either of them at the show at the time would have left me desperate to hear them again. I am still hoping a studio version of the latter will be unearthed one day.
@@ricardoadao3002 Isso também me incomoda que tão poucos amem a música de E.S., ele não tem a atenção que merece, mas, ao mesmo tempo é como falaram acima, nós cuidaremos do legado dele.
They're both Hummingbirds so I thought he borrowed that girl's guitar but his is a Gibson and her's is an Epiphone and besides that's a George Harrison story ha ha.

Thanks
Thanky schmanky!
I have an autographed set list from this show and was so happy to confirm that this was, in fact, the show by matching up the order of these titles.
@@meredithlyons3746any chance you’d be willing to share a picture of it? that’s an incredible piece to have.
See him live just before this show at the boston avalon. The full band was incredible. Elliott was full on. Wish he was still here
this version of twilight just gave me chills...
The piano!
elliott in top form
Are you joking? He was severely addicted during this time and looked worse than ever. But hey the music is good. 😌
@@eis904 Not at this point yet....it was after the tour.
Most epic concert ever, epic set list. Literally mind blowing

God, what a great band he had with him. They shred the ever living fuck out of L.A. A complete and utter joy to watch
Thanks for this. I was there. In fact, I think I can see the back of my head in the front row in some shots. So glad I found this.
@@niallmcmahon8571 I still have the autographed set list. So glad I worked up the courage to ask him to sign it.
This is purely magic ! What a great performance ! This twilight in final 😳
And the public... WOAW they are ON FIRE !
Thx a lot for upload
Never heard this full band version of Needle in the Hay before, it sounds banging
I know right? Fucking killer electric and live with this band! This version rocks!
who would downvote this set!

that last bit showing the "dynamics" of his sound on the acoustic guitar strings, very cool for me now
Thank you so much 💓

Great gig, great Elliott and great the band... wish you were here again, my idol... thank you for posting this stunning live gig...
Phenomenal!
Thanks for uploading! Nice to see ES seeming to enjoy a live set! Thanks again.
めっちゃカッコイイやん‼️
I was 2 days old when this concert happened
Visited New Orleans and walked past this place (Howlin’ Wolf) where he performed. Was cool to see, although it was closed down lol.
I was there...so greatful I got to see him live. tks for the upload.
the independence day performance in this is rly good
Lighting up a cigarette, how legendary.
this is as epic as when Dylan went electric
The best intro banter between audience lol some girl was really trying to mac
He tunes her guitar at the end.
That was my guitar that he signed
David Bowie at the start ⭐
Best crowd u could ask for
I love how it zooms in on the drummer during the end of everything means nothing to me.
Lmao at the one person that cheers at division day
Only 8 comments? he's a fucking forgotten genius!
it doesn't matter really.those that love his music,love it deep.
O "problema" é que são poucos demais ...olhe as visualizações...
ok

No, never forgotten that genius...
How come he never played Happiness on the Either Or Tour??
Is there a better quality version of this
wow!! so far truly a shit hot show fo sho'! super awesome upload
They're both Hummingbirds so I thought he borrowed that girl's guitar but his is a Gibson and her's is an Epiphone and besides that's a George Harrison story ha ha.
i like the backstage part
I'm the girl who had my guitar signed by him at the end!
I was at this show...
Well lucky you are!
