    i love how after just a couple hours people have already made their final judgments about an album theyve heard at most a couple times. gotta love the internet.....
  2. as far as non deep dish goes, im a freddy's man for life. maybe its because i grew up on it, but god damn is that stuff good. http://www.freddyspizza.com/
  3. yea, i guess blow is kind of strong. but still, their crust tastes like it came out of a pillsbury can. with all the great joints in chicago, both thick and thin, theres no reason to waste your time or money there.
  4. thought some of you might enjoy this. it was recorded at the Deboniar Social Club in Chicago on january 30th. about as good a rock version of No. 1 that i think could exist. the prarie cartel is made up of scott lucas from Local H, and 2 guys from Caviar. http://www.sendspace.com/file/o4jvix
  5. as far as pizza goes, personally i think Uno/Due blows. i have been underwhelmed every time ive been there. giordanos is a much better bet. also check out these sites to see whats going on in town while youre here http://centerstagechicago.com/ http://metromix.chicagotribune.com/
  6. wasnt he skipping town for greener pastures?
  7. ill be at the chicago show on the 24th
  8. yup, same thing would happen to me at school. im in a townhouse that looks out into our parking lot, and every time the delivery guy would leave the paper right in the middle of the lot, or even worse at the entrance of the lot. how hard would it have been to just leave it at my doorstep? not to mention the times it wasnt stolen, i would have to run outside in middle of winter to get it.
  9. There are tickets going for $400/pair for Pit. Now I wont lie. I used a broker once to get tickets for 2nd row back in 2003 at the Auditorium (i know, i know. but i really had my heart set on going and i missed out on tix the regular way). However, I paid $100 for the pair (and prices were only around $30 to begin with, so it wasnt even that big of a deal). But it just goes to show you how much more popular Wilcos become in that time.
  10. Opening Credits: Sufjan Stevens- Jacksonville Waking Up: Wilco- Alone Monday: Beatles- Hapiness is a Wam Gun Fight Song: Gang Starr- Name Tag Breaking up: Cafe Tabuca- Hola Adios Prom: U2- With or Without You (damn how perfectly random is that?!) Life: Yo La Tengo- Tears Are In Your Eyes Mental Breakdown: Dave Matthews Band- Everyday ( this song could probably cause me to have a mental breakdown tho . reminds me i have to clean out my computer ) Driving: M83- Noise Flashback: Madvillain- Fancy Clown Getting Back Together: Portishead- Biscuit Wedding: The Walkmen- I'm Ne
  11. Wilco is not bad at all. The Flaming Lips have played virtually the same setlist since 2001 (with the exception of replacing a couple yoshimi tracks with some off of mystics)
  12. this is what someone posted over on the flaming lips board that frequent at a lot more: "so i went to see wilco monday night in springfield, mo. during the first encore, some drunken frat boy jumps on stage and starts doing the "look at me, i'm on stage" dance. jeff tweedy kinda gave him a "not cool" look but kept singing. then the guy put his hand on jeff's head like he was going to whisper something to him, and to my suprise, nice guy, folk singer, jeff tweedy, punched this guy right in the fucking face! finaly security came out and got the guy. the cool thing was jeff didn't pull and axl
  13. 9/20 was my first "real" concert. Plus I had second row center seats in the pit. No concert has ever matched that night for me since. It was simply magical. I would relive that night forever if I could. And seriously, what other band out there does 30 song set lists?!
  14. I saw them 2nd row at the Auditorium on 9/20/03. The sound was crystal

  16. I love anything from the "Golden Age" of hip hop. Early-Mid 90's: Gang Starr Pete Rock/CL Smooth Public Enemy (while Flava Flav can get on my nerves, Chuck D is unparalled) De La Soul Souls of Mischief Group Home The Disposable Heros of Hypocrisy Tribe Called Quest some new stuff is pretty good too: Edan Mavillain Common The Others basically, if its jazzy im an instant sucker for it. also turntalbism (dj shadow, dj krush, rjd2, etc etc) im a huge fan of. one of my all time fav songs Pete Rock and CL Smooth- They Reminisce Over You (the horn loop is absolutely haunting)
  17. is only 1/3 of the band actually from chicago? that could be what he was going at.
  18. last night I told a stranger all about you they smiled patienty with disbelief I' always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried and I know you did it all in spite of me still I'm proud to have known you for the short time that I did proud to have been a step up on your way proud to be a part of your illustrious career and I know you did it all in spite of me in spite of me late last night I saw you in my living room you seemed so close but yet so cool for a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me those kind of thoughts can be so cruel so cruel and I know you did it
