Hi everyone,

Tim here from Oxfam America. We're all pretty excited about this project. Just wanted to let you know while the video says May, it's probably looking like it'll be summer before it's out. Once we get more info, we'll definitely pass it along, though you all seem to get ridiculously fast.

If anyone is interesting in learning more about Oxfam (you might have noticed us at many recent Wilco shows), check out http://www.oxfamamerica.org

Thanks,

Tim

Jools Holland? Isn't he the guy that did that song with George Harrison, "Horse To The Water"?

Yup, that would be him.

What Light appears to be the first song released to radio stations. WXRT is playing it here.

 

I it

I heard it on Sirius 27 (Left of Center) today, so it does appear to be the first "single."

I was sitting/standing in the first row on the left side and security must have walked past us about 20-30 times going after people who were in the aisles. It was pretty annoying especially since they kept bumping into my friends girlfriend the entire time without saying anything.

It was pretty weird that the front rows on the left and right stood for the entire show, but the first 5 rows in the center didn't until the very end.

Awesome show overall though (my third time seeing them). Tweedy did look a little tired at the beginning in my opinion, which would make sense that he wasn't feeling well, but he definitely made up for it by playing his heart out the entire show.

Magzine Called Sunset and Ashes Of American Flags where my highlights, I really wanted to see both live. I was down on the floor about 10 row back and right of the stage on the edge. Everyone was up and every time people danced in the walkways security went nuts. Durring Forget The Flowers, security made a guy put his camera away, which pissed me off. The jam after Ashes was great, I think Nels is a machine. I have not listened to a ton of live shows on CD, but Kingpin had a more rocking arrangement. Spiders was nuts and it went on past the final verses. All in all it was a great 1st show for me. BTW there was a taper up frount to the right.

The more you play, the less you'll suck. Trust me...I was right where you are about a year ago.

 

As referred to above, Misunderstood is an easy one...only 2 chords: D-G, D-G, D-G, G-D.

 

Welcome to the club!

Thanks! It's getting a little easier, but it's still rough. I wish I had more time to practice.

If you are looking into some other bands check out  CCR.  Their songs are mostly 3 to 4 chords.

This has all been very helpful. Thanks to everyone! Now if I could just suck less I would be all set.

I have just started to learn how to "play" and was wondering if there are any songs that are relatively easy to play? I don't know much about the guitar, but and trying too.

Any help would be appreciated.
