"canyon arrow"...definitely different from any other AD song i've heard. i don't remember hearing it live, though i haven't seen them since the june schuba's show. cool album cover! thoughts? link... AD myspace page

wendy, that mike grimes...how cool is he? i'm glad he liked us so much.

thanks, mike. i realized it was a compilation of articles after i posted. i will, for the benefit of those who care, write my take on it as well after i finish reading it...though i might not get to it until christmas break, sadly.

is that the sound of crickets i hear? i'm gonna go get it now...if no one else does, i'll keep all of you posted...though my views count would suggest that no one cares. good night, all.

yvon, i can't top that (peeps as rock legends are my faves) but i wanted to add my best birthday wishes to you, samo, even if the day is almost over.

i expect a full report back, erin. by the way, i miss you!

i can't get most of the stuff to work. i got frustrated and gave up.

i'm going to borders right now to get it, but does anyone want to summarize for me before i go get it?

i say bravo. sarah, good work on the pix and the report. god, good work on rhett, musically and otherwise.

as is typical first week of school fashion, i came home on friday night and went straight to bed. now it is 6:30 am the next day, and i am late in wishing one of my favorite people in the world the happiest of b-day's. so, happy belated b-day, jeff. hope it was a good one.

word.

i think matt (our friend, who promoted the show) said that some were on their way here. i'll let you know when we get ahold of one, and, if you don't have it yet, i'd be happy to help you out. jen

post-show update: holy shit...what a show! do yourselves a favor...nyc, la, austin, and seattle...and hear some great original music, along with witty commentaries and interesting covers. easily, my fave concert ever in fw, next to maybe the avett brothers this past spring. hopefully, this is a start of something amazing in the live music that comes into town.

imho, greatest album (sequencing and songs together) EVER! i listen to it no less than once a week...it's been that way for the last half of my life...i first heard it at 14. solace, i am so looking into that vinyl. thanks for the tip.

seriously, i'm a dumbass. please come out, and make sure to say hi to wendy and me! it's going to be a great show. between this and the dylan show coming up, both in fort wayne, i swear the world is on its last leg.

nope...that's one thing fort wayne has going for it! everything is fairly inexpensive.

bump!

OK...my friend Matt Kelley, another serious Wilco fan, is promoting a show that is taking place next week in Fort Wayne, IN. Tim Rogers, the frontman for Australia's legendary You Am I, and his friend Tex Perkins, from the band Beasts of Bourbon, have formed a duo called TNT. They will be playing at a great little club, Columbia Street West, beginning at 9 pm on Wednesday, August 13. Tickets are $5, and Fort Wayne's own (and, in my opinion, best band) The Legendary Trainhoppers will open with an acoustic set I can't do these guys justice like my friend Matt could, so i'll let him do the ta

happy birthday, sweetest erin! love you and can't wait to see you and morgs soon!

dave, thanks for that review. i had a blast (i was right up front...the man is utterly impossible to take your eyes off of)...i will write you more later about my thoughts. good to see you here on VC!

i liked it...a lot. seeing him tomorrow night in indy for the first time!

nope-ers, dearest froggie...according to billboard online, it's "james alley blues." Billboard Online article what a great set, though...i think i will have to get this one!
