That's exactly it: the last six seconds of the Cha Cha rhythm track from the Mellotron: https://soundcloud.com/nordkeyboards/chacha-swflutes-ul_ryfi-mellot

Weird! Megan Draper was at one of my shows too!

I feel obliged to mention this page in particular, and this site in general: http://radiocure.wikispaces.com/At+My+Window+Sad+and+Lonely

Listen, dear Martin, I miss you the most

That's good guitar. A fat neck and big frets if I remember correctly? It's funny you're not taking to the safe-t-post tuners as they are by far my favorites. When you're stringing up, after you feed the string through the bridge, pull it tight(ish) and cut it two to two-and-a-half posts further than the post you're going to feed it into. For example, if you're putting in the low E string, cut the string between the D and G posts. For the A string, cut between the G and B posts. Just estimate for the B and high E. Jam the string down the hole, and you are good to go. No muss, no fuss. Re-string

The Blues Jr. is a fine amp, in my opinion. I have a Pro Jr (not the same but similar) that I think is great and the Blues Jrs that I've tried sound pretty great. A pedal like the OCD would go great in front of one. I'd set everything on the amp to 12 o'clock (halfway) and tweak from there. if your tele is too jangly, turn down down the treble a little bit -- it might help it. Also, be sure to experiment with the tone knob on your tele. Most players (I assume) set it all the way up but I think you can take away a little of the brittle-ness by roll down the tone juuuuust a touch. The Blues Jrs

Thanks for this!

Anyone have an mp3 of that?

Apparently, they are taking suggestions for questions to ask Mr. Tweedy. http://www.avclub.co...tomorrow,84610/ Apologies if this has already been posted. Apologies also for misspelling "interviews" (title edited by gogo) (also from gogo, fyi, for anyone else who has this problem: titles can be edited by the creator of the thread! just click on "edit" in the bottom right corner of your first post, then click on "full editor"; that'll take you to a screen that allows you to edit the title and tags )

Haha. Yeah, wasting time is pretty much the only thing I'm really good at. I use a compressor for country-type stuff, but I use a compressor for everything because it's just kind of a talent-maker. I sound soooo much more like a competent guitarist when I have a compressor on -- I'm just addicted to the sound and what it does for my perceived level of skill. I'm sure Jay has used compressors at some point but he doesn't need anything to make him seem like a good guitarist; he just is one.

I'm not sure he DEFINITELY used a compressor (he didn't have one on his solo tour and he rocked it pretty hard) and putting a compressor after the boost pedal kind of defeats the purpose, no? I kinda suspect that the Boss is a tuner and the Arion is a delay, also. Any more help from the message boards?

It IS the only decent picture of his pedalboard from that era, so thanks for posting it! I'm pretty sure about the Boss Tuner and MXR Micro Amp and Blue Box. When I saw him on his last (RIP) solo tour those were the only pedals he used, so it makes sense that they were always with him.

You got me. The light color on the battery compartment of the Arion pedal makes me think either a compressor, tuner, or equalizer, maybe a stereo delay or phaser. You know, assuming that it's an Arion pedal and that they have never changed their color scheme in 20 years. The Memory Man theory is a good guess, but yeah, not enough knobs and I actually think that it's not wide enough. It may be a pedal turned on its side? I thought briefly that the two switch pedal was a bicomprossor, but not also enough knobs. I'm stumped.

I'm not sure exactly what he's playing there, but what I play, and what would appear to be mostly correct given your description, is a variation of the standard blues shuffle lick. The standard blues shuffle would be: |..+.....+.....+.....+.....|..+.....+.....+.....+...... e--------------------------|--------------------------| B--------------------------|--------------------------| G--------------------------|--------------------------| D--------------------------|--------------------------| A--5--5--7--7--5--5--7--7--|--5--5--7--7--5--5--7--7--| E--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--|--3--3--3--3

Also, this from when the local club had a tribute to Fleetwood Mac. The band's called the breakups, so that night we called ourselves "Peter Green's the breakups."

Hee hee; just found this. It's more than a couple years old, but here's my band playing the somewhat local college radio station: http://www.stickam.c...d&mId=177980363 Video chat by Stickam.com I guess technically this isn't youtube, but it is a video that can be seen on the interwebs, so I'm hoping it can be grandfathered in.

Haha, I have two relationships that are so entwined with Wilco that it's hard for me to listen to them without thinking of my exes. For me, Summerteeth will always remind me of a car trip when my ex and I took three days to drive from Los Angeles to San Francisco (it normally takes 5 hours). We brought along London Calling and some Replacements album, but we were just getting into Wilco together and Summerteeth was just this revelation. When we finally got to see Wilco live it was right before Yankee came out and right after September 11th. After the show, my ex commented that it was almost a

We'd probably want to call it a Gadd11, no? As it is an extension of the chord rather than the substitution for the 3rd?

Anthony's kind of the moderator over there and so far he's only let in like 4 members, most, if not all, of whom are via chicago residents. I had much your same worry when Anthony announced the wiki, but so far it's working well. I've posted a bunch, edited a few and it's not been a problem at all.

Thanks for posting that!

I ran the dryer yesterday without anything in it. I cleaned the lint tray, shut the door, and set it for casual and pressed start. Nothing in the dryer at all. So... yeah, no problem. Don't worry about it. It works for you -- that is great. It just didn't work for me. When I play organ I want a ridiculously light touch -- it covers up my lack of talent. But it's much too light for me for piano and (especially) Rhodes. It's actually pretty perfect for Wurly, though. Again, for me. Yeah pretty much. I found that in a band context the EPs (especially the Wurly) kinda disappeared in the

The MicroKorg is a great little box; people I really like love them -- Jon Brion has one above his Piano at Largo, Kori from Mates of State has one sitting atop her organ. I recently replaced the keyboardist of a band and she used the singer's MicroKorg for the synth sounds. I used it for a while before I got fed up with the little keys (I'm actually a shockingly limited keyboardist -- I can't play evenly unless there's some weight under the keys and I can't tell where my hand is with miniature keys). So I spent an hour or two writing patches on my Ion to match those sounds and ditched the Mic

That's a really early polyphonic keyboard. The lid-looking thing is a sweepable low-pass filter and it has a pedal to change the amplifier envelope's release parameter.

You're both pretty. This seems an example of people talking past each other. I think Anthony has a good tab of the recorded version, and Fragile makes a good tab of a live version (with the correction noted below). I really don't hear the D7 lick in the recorded version (though a piano jumps in at the exact moment it would be there so it's hard to tell). But its definitely there in that live version, though I think Fragile missed the string in a couple places (I don't have my guitar so this is mostly a guess): 3..V.....V.....V.....V.....4..V.....V.....V.....V.....| e--2-----2--------------

That's what is kind of great about a wiki; the best tabs will bubble up or mediocre tabs will be made better without a lot of effort herding cats which is kind of what happens when group decisions have to be made. I don't think that finding tabs will be much of a problem; there are A LOT of them out there.
