I thought this had potential for a good thread, but it obviously got buried after the May 15 release of SBS ... so I'm bumping it back up.

Ah, back where it belongs ... Thank you, Halcyon! (Froggie, stand down.)

I must have accidentally deleted "Airline to Heaven" (track #19) from the Jeff Tweedy solo show -- February 25, 2006; Mandel Hall, University of Chicago Can anyone please post this track for me? Froggie, you out there? Thanks!

Not to question your computer savvy-ness again, but is it possible that your PC shows the enhanced CD as two separate discs or folders (like my Mac) ... when I was looking for the extras.mov after closing the window that popped up, I couldn't find it again until I saw the other icon hiding on my cluttered desktop. The webmaster at wilcoworld.net might also be able to e-mail you the extras.mov file if you presented proof of purchase.

Jeff killed a guy in Springfield once.

Would it work if someone e-mailed you the "extras.mov" file to access the bonus features, seeing as how you did purchase the CD and all ...

I just did this about a week ago for a friend ... I tried to include a good mix of all albums (up to SBS which wasn't officially released yet) and added a taste of the live stuff and some of my preferred recordings of songs such as Via Chicago and She's a Jar ... Jesus, etc. - Wilco (Yankee Hotel Foxtrot) Airline to Heaven - Wilco (LIVE) Via Chicago (demo) - Wilco (A Shot in the Arm CD single) She's A Jar (demo) - Wilco (A Shot in the Arm CD single) California Stars - Billy Bragg and Wilco (Mermaid Avenue) I am Trying to Break Your Heart - Wilco (Yankee Hotel Foxtrot) I'm the Man Who Loves Y

Here's the read_me info from the bonus CD ... I like the part about "regularly updated content" ... BTW, I'm on a Mac ... when I insert the "enhanced" music CD, the bonus folder pops up. It also shows up as a separate disk icon on the desktop. (When I clicked on the extras.mov, it said I needed to enable Flash in my Quicktime preferences to access the bonus material -- so try that as well.)

I paid $24.99 for the red tab "Special Deluxe Edition" DVD/CD at Hasting's here in Stillwater, Okla. ... I was a little taken aback by the price, because I thought it would be in the $19 range. But, I was glad to finally have it in-hand. Question: will we get access to the bonus track(s), like LNGCA for the iTunes download? There's a special bonus "extras" link on the endhanced CD, but song downloads aren't on there.

Got the "Special Deluxe Edition" DVD/CD at Hasting's today. Getting ready to check out the DVD now ...

Concept/theme albums are these guys' bread & butter ... ... hoodrats and all.

Here's an HOB video tour from the Dallas Morning News ... http://www.dallasnews.com/s/dws/photography/2007/hob/ Unfortunately, I haven't found any pics or media reviews from the Old 97's show yet.

The coffee & breakfast at Buzzbrew's off Hwy 75 Fitzhugh were pretty durn good, as well.

[quote name='SarahC' date='May 13 2007, 04:49 PM' post='872439' Did you take any pictures? The HOB has a strict no camera policy, so I didn't even try. There were some youngsters in the front row (21ish I presume) that had a camera and took a few pics (with a flash no less) ... I'm sure they missed the posted restrictions. I expected the staff to take their camera away, but they didn't. A few camera phones, too, but not much.

Where are the references to rehab and Krautrock?

Rockin' show! Rhett and the boys played for about two solid hours. It started off a little shaky when the huge HOB patchwork-quilt curtain knocked over Murray's mic stand upon opening (his trademark "Hello Everybody!" had to wait until song #2). The band was ready from the get-go, but the soundboard wasn't. They opened with 504, but Rhett's mic was cutting in and out ... the overall sound was sort of muted for the first song and a half. After the sound guy got it together, they kept the energy up and put on a really fun show! Lots of singing along and enthusiasm by the crowd. I had a nice

Here's a story about the new HOB Dallas venue ... won't be long now! GuideLive article

You should send him the album when it comes out ... and put a file in the CD jacket as some "bonus" material.

red1996 and I are going to check them out June 10 at a small venue in norman, okla. We will report back.

The one dubbed "Misunderclapping" from Spain is pretty funny ... anyone got that handy?

Christine, What's the word on the WWI museum in KC?

Is it just me, or did they emphasize the horns a little too much. It was hard to pick out Jay's vocals, as well. Kind of overpowered by the horns and other instruments. (Of course, Jay's not exactly a screamer.)

Bump for McCarthy's current Pulitzer Prize and Oprah relevance ...

I'm up front with the brown tee and flannel ... red1996 is the dude with the plaid shirt, glasses and cheesy grin two rows back. A beer would be nice.
