no, and no The largest anti-war protests happened well before her involvement, and most of the protests from 2005-present had nothing to do with her Do you really think the way and the movement against it here somehow below the American radar before she got involved?

yes - Matthew Fox was in it

not enough!

crap - I had a smartass response all typed out when I saw you edited the thread title This is a good place to start: http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?showtopic=16596 You can google around and get various chord fingerings for open G tunings. In the solo acoustic versions, Tweedy does a fingerpicking thing during the chords. This is not at all my forte, but try alternately picking the 5th string with your thumb and the upper 3 strings with your middle or ring finger. Perhaps an expert can help you a little better, but this will get you close.

you look like you're cutting the course

That would be better if Batman was screening a shirt with the bat signal and it said "ikol" on it

Dude, what are you doing talking about Lost in the official Nine/Heros/Party of Five topic

yikes - glad you're OK.

You know, before today every single 2006 Nobel was won by an American. So I'm not putting a lot of stock in your theory However, there's no doubt in my mind that the only reason Sheehan has gotten this far is eactly to "stick it to Bush". She's not a credible contender for the prize. Cindy Sheehan has suffered a tremendous loss, and for that reason I don't think too badly of her when she makes a complete ass out of herself. But her efforts have done exactly zero to advance peace, and she seems more inclined to do and say anything that would piss Bush off rather than make a truly sincere e

Actually, I haven't been in a year and a half, and I'm hoping to get decent seats for the Auditorium theater because I'm never sitting back in the rafters again. Otherwise, I will join you in loserville.

It's pretty ridiculous that the writer uses Hell is Chrome - a song and a solo written and recorded by Jeff* - to demonstrate how essential Nels is to the band. Not to mention both Jeff and Nels play that solo live. How about Muzzle of Bees, where Nels actually takes an improved solo over the album version? Or Impossible Germany? I love what Nels brings to the band, and I love his freeform noise-jazz. That said, I've not seen evidence that Nels can really rock the country-rock tunes like Jay could (or he chooses not to). Forget ther Flowers sound positively anemic now - maybe time to let Pat

child of original Dharma team? Either some of the Others are being punished or got the short stick, or this is sitll some kind of psychological experiment (Sawyer's kiss is playing right into their hands) I still think they're being set up to "breed" Nothing - someone just put their rocks in Boss Pickett's hole They drugged their captives and got them to spill the beans without knowing it I'd guess tapes. I really dont think the Others have the access that they claim. Otherwise, why are they still there? Unless they're hiding from someone....

are you looking for the solo in Walken, or the solo acoustic version?

The verse chord progression for LNGCA is 100% identical to the opening riff of Hesitating Rock, which was an outtake from the A.M. sessions. And despite a chorus which went "Rock rock rock... Let's hear it for rock'n'roll", it's a much better song than the new one.

If Jeff would find some decent lyrics for the Hestitating Rock chorus, I'd much rather hear that on the new album. At least it's fun to listen to. I'm a Wheel isn't my favorite ever, but even though the lyrics are dumb, the song does get my feet tapping. This new one doesn't - it just limps along in fits and starts.

The direction seems to be, go back to the AM rejects, cop a riff which appears once or twice in the song, and then make a whole new song out of it.

Just because you screamed like an 8-year old girl doesn't make your encounter with a cockroach a "ghost story".

I think it's less this, and more that there is increasing availability of full sized softball fields. The only reason to play 16 inch is if you're playing in a small urban softball field where it would be too easy to hit a 12 inch softball into the street. There doesn't seem to be much sense in playing 16 inch out in the burbs, except for tradition/habit.

when Nels played solo, he used a JTM45 head that looks a lot like the one Jeff is using in these pics. But during the last few Wilco shows, Nels is using one of the offset JTM45 heads and matching cab. I wonder if Nels went out and got a new amp and Jeff took the old one back?

Do they hit you with a nickel bag?

This song wants to rock, but falls pretty short.
