## Resource

Maybe the most legendary of the Crows live shows, Counting Crows played for 5 consecutive years in New Orleans during Jazzfest.. The "Shim Sham Shows" (played at the Shim Sham Club) occurred from 1999-2003. Lewis Fowler was there for 3 of them and was the "official/unofficial" recorder of those bootlegs. Yes, if you've heard those shows - it's because of Lewis. Join Lewis, Chris and Eric as we walkthrough an amazing aspect of CC history. Listen to the shim sham shows on YouTube.
