My fellow Wilco travelers and I met Pat and John before, after and again after the Pittsburg show in 2004, and we all ended up having a beer and a chat with them. They were both incredibly friendly and down to earth. Plus he can shake the maracas like a mad man! I think this emoticon was made with him in mind Yeay Pat!

Excellent pics!! I was right behind you.

Hey! You came from Philly? We did too. My sister lives there, I came out from Ohio and we drove down together. Prolly passed you on the highway!

Sorry about the photo mash up everyone, my two posts merged and it ended up like that . I had it all nice and orderly before the photo collision. I've pm'ed for help.... at least you can see them.

As promised, here are a few photos:

And one of the owl...

I'll let my wife upload the Wilco pics, but here are some Low pics from the show, and 2 Jeff Tweedy's that I took. She's got a bunch more.

Great photos, thanks for sharing! ....can't wait to see your Wilco pics, too. I think you and your wife were directly in front of my sister and I (if you are who I think you are, you were front and center, we were right next to the fellow with the blond curly hair right behind you) We have some to upload as well that we'll share soon.

A few notes from my experiences:

What a great time. Thank you Wilco for playing your hearts out to all of us!!! Despite some of the reports about sound problems in the pavilion and lawn (from my ears, Jeff sounded like he was turned down a tad too much--vocals not instruments--but beyond that it sounded great where we were), I second (or third or fourth) that this was my favorite Wilco show by far. The energy between audience and band was just out of control crazy fun.

Did anyone catch Jeff "blowing" invisible pixie dust (I think at the end of Hummingbird?) toward Glenn, who timed it just so by striking some chimes, so it sounded like it the dust blew across the stage?

Glenn was so fun to watch. He reminds me of Animal from the Muppets when he plays, and I mean that only as the highest of compliments!! They all played at that level though, it was a treat to be present for it. So glad we made the trek.

And finally, hi Isadora, I think I've put two and two together, you may have been right next to us on our right--didn't realize I had posted in your graphic design thread here before!

Wow, that's quite a list!

I read A Separate Peace a very long time ago, but I remember loving it.

My brother-in-law teaches Thomas Pynchon in his classes (he's a big fan), I know he'd put that at the top, and he'll be thrilled that I put the recommendation in for him.

I wasn't formally trained in graphic design but I have a degree in fine art. I have my own business and have been getting a lot of freelance graphic work and am training for typesetting/book design currently. So I guess my answer is... sort of !

Edit: What do you do graphic designly speaking isadorah (and you posters before me)?

Oh right, I guess I didn't realize it was GA. I just had this image of someone trying to make small talk with a stranger that they had just siphoned some serious money out of their pockets. Not that anyone is bidding as it was pointed out...

Thanks Kalle!!!

Is that the auction where you have to enter the building (and sit with) the seller? How could a person in good conscious sit next to someone they just took $1200 (minus actual ticket price and fees, I'll give them that) from??

Grammar edit: would that be good conscious or good conscience? I'm thinking the latter?

Star Wars

I guess I should have owned up to this one in my list.

me too

Yes to cilantro! (as if my list wasn't long enough... )

 

Oh, and I like the chocolate and raspberry thing very much.

 

I figure interwebs and e-mail checking goes without saying.

Does that mean I can scratch off email checking and not consider it obsessive? Yeay!

I like the cheese, jewelry making and morning coffee, color blue and wildflowers to name a few from your list...we'd get along well!

cilantro

good answer!!

It seems people can be classified into four categories: those who love cilantro, those who hate cilantro, those who love mayonaise, and those who gag at the mere mention of the word mayonaise.

I read this initially as "succulent pants."

_{Add that to my list.}

Really? Mine?

Ohhhh, I thought it was "Happy sluts have changed my pants"...

Now I have your lyrics stuck in my head!! I don't know if I'll ever hear the original lyrics ever again..

so now that people have this record/cd in their hands, where is it ranking in order of release date? any changes?

Hi formerly known as BBH. Remember me? I haven't posted in a long while. Your question intrigued me though and I thought I'd give it a whirl. This is my opinion:

Hey stranger!

 

No, I couldn't hear anything at all on the phone except muffled sounds.

Hey you! I know, its been a long time!

The harmony between Jeff and John is so awesome tonight!!

I just got a call from the show. Couldn't hear a darn thing but it's the thought that counts.

Were you getting an echo from hearing it in two places at once?

I wouldn't want to be anywhere else...ah, the power of music.

Wheee! Me neither. I am sitting at home, dialed into work working on a computer remotely, listening to a show 7 hours away, and on VC. This is so great!!!

I'd like to change mine. But there is nothing good to come of Laminated Kat.

Your name is great, Laminated Kat don't change it! Had I originally picked out a cool name like that, I would not have changed mine. Wilcogirl was just so..... meh. So here I am... with a name that will probably be confused with "pariah" Maybe I should have consulted you before I changed.
