  1. Ryan Adams is one of those "potential" artists.

     

    He could've been a great.

     

    Heartbreaker was a great album; even Gold was pretty cool.

     

    But overall, I think he's a has been that only his hardcore contingent still cares about; outside of alt-country circles, he's a trivia question at this point.

     

    Ryan Adams never was and never will be in Tweedy's league. fin.

  2. I really wish Wilco would put out a boxed set or something.

     

    I mean, consider the fact that there were like 15 extra songs from the Yankee Hotel Foxtrot session, and that we've only heard about 3 from every other album session. There's gotta be more. :dancing

  3. Every time I turn around, I hear of a new Wilco single. I just found out there was a Muzzle of Bees single! is there any definitive list?

    Box Full of Letters

    Outtasite (Outtamind)

    Can't Stand It

    A Shot in The Arm

    what am I missing?

  4. after seeing this, it's no wonder the DVD got shelved. Didn't they have steady cams back in '05?

     

     

    You think that Sam would've been given the budget to do a typical pro-shot setup, given I'm sure the big pockets at Nonsuch funded this:

     

    Camera in the pit straight on

    Camera in the pit to the left

    camera in the pit to the right

    camera stage left

    camera stage right

    camera in the way back.

     

     

    Basically you need a camera focused on each individual member, plus some good group shots.

    Speaking of Insectiside...I like the Sliver alot! :thumbup

    This set, I feel, gives a great taste of what each album is about, and what Wilco is about; it shows Wilco as alt country, brian wilson-esque pop, noise makers, and jam banders.

  11. I had a dream this morning that Wilco came back to Milwaukee. They played at the same venue, just a shittier stage [the Rave]. At first it seemed like there was a full house, but for a reason unbeknownst to me, people started walking out. I looked back and saw only 3 rows of people left, and I knew that the band was gonna take it pretty hard. I looked at Jeff and could see on his face that he was having a terrible time...to the point of almost crying! A couple of seconds later they put down their stuff and walked off the stage without saying anything.

     

    How sad is that?! :cryin

     

    Maybe the red squirrel and his associates chopped up the crowd. :ohwell

  12. that's pretty funny :lol

     

    It was during a weird semester for me...I was living alone, and watched IATTBYH everyday...I can't watch that movie anymore...that dream, combined with actually meeting Jeff in 2005, made it weird.

     

    It's kind of strange to sit around in your underwear all day and watch a man puke then drink a diet coke. I generally puke AFTER I drink diet coke.
