Stream The I'm Not There Concert
One of the year's more memorable concert experiences came this month at Beacon, when Tood Haynes pulled together a solid swatch of the artists appearing on his impressionistic Dylan biopic's soundtrack for an all-star live celebration/kick-off for I'm Not There: the film and the OST. There were the customary tribute-show transitional hiccups, some so-so performances, etc. -- but thanks to My Morning Jacket's take on "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You" and the Roots set-closing, Star Spangled "Masters Of War," there were classic moments, too. We posted vid of MMJ's turn along with our pic platter the next morning, but thanks to the archival ambition of the folks at Wolfgang's Vault, now you can stream the entire show. The full list of performers in order of appearance:

Jim James, I miss your hair. However, you look like a standup gent as well. But winter is coming, let's get metal looking again, hair and beard.
