  5. I had this dream I was a part of the 1999-2001 Wilco lineup...and Jeff, Jay and I were shopping for food; Jay says something like "Excuse me Jon, to quote myself, I don't think we have 1,000 dollars an hour to waste on cookies." and I said "To quote myself Jay, didn't Jeff fire you?" and Jeff started cracking up.
  6. I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, you were talking so brave and so sweet, giving me head on the unmade bed, while the limousines wait in the street. Those were the reasons and that was New York, we were running for the money and the flesh. And that was called love for the workers in song probably still is for those of them left. Ah but you got away, didn't you babe, you just turned your back on the crowd, you got away, I never once heard you say, I need you, I don't need you, I need you, I don't need you and all of that jiving around. I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel you we
  7. I still think we'll get another live album this year....or who knows...maybe a rarities record? It's rare Wilco goes a year without putting out SOMETHING: 1995: A.M. 1996: Being There 1997: Nothing 1998: Mermaid Avenue 1999: Summer Teeth 2000: Mermaid Avenue II 2001: Was SUPPOSED to be the release date of YHF 2002: Yankee Hotel Foxtrot 2003: Down With Wilco + More Like the Moon EP 2004: A Ghost is Born + Wilco Book 2005: A Ghost is Born EP + Kicking Television 2006: Sunken Treasure Live in the Northwest 2007: Sky Blue Sky + Sky Blue Sky EP 2008 has to bring something to us; Wilco l
  8. So I reset my playlists to have only one song by each artist...previously The Beatles and Dylan COMPLETELY Dominated the top so I said "Shit, Scott..." and reset all but the top played track for each artist.. My current top 25: 01. "A Day in The Life" by The Beatles 02. "I Want You" by Bob Dylan 03. "Chelsea Hotel No 2" by Leonard Cohen 04. "Metal Guru" by T. Rex 05. "All I Need" by Radiohead 06. "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" by The Band 07. "Have You Seen Her Face?" by The Byrds 08. "Fly" by Nick Drake 09. "About a Girl" by Nirvana 10. "Whiteman (In Hammersmith Palais)" by The C
  9. I'd really like to see a Residency Mixtape in lossless if at all possible.
  10. Final Tally= 95 songs. Not bad gentlemen. There were a few I was sad missed the cut; "Another Man's Done Gone", "Someday Some Morning, Sometime", "Venus Stopped The Train"....but they went above and beyond the "Songs from all 6 records" promise, with an aditional 14 songs. Let's hope some of the ones that didn't make the residency get played this tour. It would be pant piss worthy if this year's tour compilation had 7-8 discs worth of songs.
  11. Disc 1: 01. ELT 02. A Shot in The Arm 03. Side With The Seeds 04. You Are My Face 05. I Am Trying To Break Your Heart 06. Pot Kettle Black 07. At Least That's What You Said 08. What's The World Got in Store 09. When The Roses Bloom Again 10. Airline To Heaven 11. Ashes of American Flags 12. Either Way 13. Jesus, Etc; 14. Too Far Apart 15. Can't Stand It 16. Sunken Treasure Disc 2: 17. Spiders (Kidsmoke) 18. Misunderstood 19. Far Far Away 20. Why Would You Want To Live 21. Impossible Germany 22. Sky Blue Sky 23. Please Be Patient With Me 24. Cars Can't Escape 25. Hummingbird 26. Hate it
  12. I think an official release is likely. It's an off year for Wilco; as in...no new CD coming out. Every off year since 2000, they've put out SOMETHING. (Okay save 2001, excuse me...they didn't have a record contract then...) How about they follow Radiohead's lead... a widely available double disc for retailers, and an online only deluxe edition for like 100 bucks w/ all 90 or so performed songs.
  13. I re-fell in love with Wilco tonight. It's like a renewing of wedding vows.
  14. Yes. All 81 songs from the 6 albums plus the 12 or so from the MAs, and the various b-sides/ Uncle Tupelo/ Golden Smog songs they might do would be an awesome compilation.
  15. Today so far: The New Pornographers- Twin Cinema In Progress: The Stone Roses- The Stone Roses
  16. American Stars n' Bars that's fucking hardcore.
  17. Today: Nirvana- 8-30-92, Reading, UK (bootleg) Pixies- Doolittle Bob Dylan- Various bootleg rarities David Bowie- Station to Station Neil Young- Tonight's the Night
  18. Today: P J Harvey- Rid of Me Magnetic Fields- 69 Love Songs Neil Young- After the Gold Rush On deck: David Bowie- Aladdin Sane Bob Dylan- Highway 61 Revisited Gang of Four- Entertainment! Nirvana- Nevermind The Arcade Fire- Neon Bible
  19. Holy sex wax. that sounds amazing. I also listened to the following yesterday: Nick Cave- Abbatoir Blues/ The Lyre of Orpheus Big Star-3rd/ Sister Lovers Wilco- Sky Blue Sky forgot them.
  20. "There She Goes, My Beautiful World" by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds The wintergreen, the juniper The cornflower and the chicory All the words you said to me Still vibrating in the air The elm, the ash and the linden tree The dark and deep, enchanted sea The trembling moon and the stars unfurled There she goes, my beautiful world There she goes, my beautiful world There she goes, my beautiful world There she goes, my beautiful world There she goes again John Willmot penned his poetry riddled with the pox Nabakov wrote on index cards, at a lectem, in his socks St. John of the Cross did h
  21. Favorite Neil songs hmmm: 01. "Ambulance Blues"- favorite song quote ever...you're all just pissing in the wind. I totally half-ripped this song off with one of my own...and I'd do it 100 times over. It really ranks up with the best closers ever ("A Day in the Life", "Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands", "Train in Vain" what have you...) 02. "Cowgirl in the Sand"- this song helped me get through a rough patch when someone I was really into got engaged...."Old enough now to change your name" still gets me. 03. "Cortez the Killer"- This song is just so fucking haunting...my body temp drops 4 degree
  22. Today I listened to a veritable fuckload of music. Sonic Youth- Sister Sufjan Stevens- Illinoise Pavement- Slanted & Enchanted Pavement- Wowee Zowee! Husker Du- Zen Arcade Prince- Sign "O" The Times Neil Young & Crazy Horse- Zuma Love- Forever Changes I'm probably winding down with some Joni Mitchell & then some Nick Drake.
  23. For being a huge Nirvana fan, it's surprising I never bought that album with the Cobain connection and all.
  24. Neil has at least 10-15 essential records, depending on how hardcore of a music collector you are, and how hardcore of a Neil fan you become; I've yet to hear every single record, but of the ones I've heard, On The Beach is my favorite; Everybody Knows This is Nowhere, After the Gold Rush, Harvest, Tonight's the Night, Zuma, Rust Never Sleeps, Freedom and Ragged Glory are also essential. If you prefer Neil's so cal folk hippy side, you'll probably also like Comes a Time and Harvest Moon; if you're a Crazy Horse nut, you'll probably like Sleep with Angels and Mirrorball, though I admittedly ha
  25. I see it the opposite...I agree with A.M., Being There, Summer Teeth, and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot being a progression, and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot being an unclassifiable peak. But the last two albums for me have been a backslide...the sound of a band who's peaked and really doesn't know what to do next. A Ghost is Born is still high quality, but Sky Blue Sky is no Summer Teeth or Being There, that's for damn sure. Sky Blue Sky to me is like Wilco's Goathead Soup, Self-Portrait, Monster, Expirement Jet Trash No Star, Candy Apple Grey, or any number of albums that are just "okay" coming on the
