To go along with this thread, I remember reading an article where Jeff said he wrote the Krautrock version of "Spiders" on an old drum machine program he had on his computer.

I'm really digging this!

One of the better lists I've seen.

Philly, I can't wait!!!

I'll admit that Sky Blue Sky has taken a back seat in my music collection as of late, until today. I was at a local Coffee Shop and heard the opening bars of "Either Way" pulsing from their small stereo, and I went straight home and the first thing I did was throw SBS back into the cd player. I had forgotten what a truly amazing record it is and I've been kicking myself all night for forgetting that. Now with fresh ears, songs that originally never quite worked for me have morphed into sounding near perfect. It's been wonderful to get to experience this album all over again.

Just thought I'd share.

I Was Submerged - Tulsa

Seldom Slumber - Graves

Come, I'm A Lion - Page France

Free Life - Dan Wilson

Palo Santo - Shearwater

Andrew Bird

Wilco

Spoon

Low

Dan Wilson

Safety Bricks - Broken Social Scene & Kevin Drew

I'm So Tired - Graves

Action / Adventure - Andrew Bird

Jens Lekman - The Opposite Of Hallelujah

Easier - Grizzly Bear

I too use the Amazon dealers, but this is a good one for more obscure albums:

Forced Exposure

"A Long Time Ago" is a song Jeff did for/with Golden Smog. It's on Another Fine Day

I'm pretty sure the tune tiles are crotales:

this article makes a pretty convincing case against the idolator litigation article. It cites some similar cases in the past that have had no repercussions.

1. Wilco

2. Andrew Bird

3. Page France

4. Low

5. Owen

6. Jim O

Does anyone know what the 10 sec musical clip is at the very beginning of John's podcast? It's the tune he's talking over, right before Student Load Stereo.

I happened upon this too as I was flipping through channels tonight. I must admit, I too was very exicted.

I shook down those lines

To shine up the streets

I got up off my hands and knees

To thank my lucky stars that you're not me

What would we be without wishful thinking

Happy birthday Jeff! At 40 your still looking pretty young compared to the Rolling Stones!

I've always felt, and I could be dead wrong about this, but I've always sort of though that there aren't the right sized venues in philly for Wilco. My feeling is that the audience they draw is too big for the Troc, the TLA, even the Electric Factory. That leaves the Outdoor venues, which they've played a few times now, but obviously those venues are seasonal. However maybe The Tower theater could work. It's a bigger sized venue. Here's to hoping.
