  1. Looks like the show with Trampled By Turtles on September 19th was moved to September 18th 2021. Nice to see a realistic date!
  2. Cool to hear At A Distance, that's a great song. I think Jeff meant he wanted the Tweedy band to play, so Liam on bass, James Elkington on guitar, and Spencer on drums. Unless I misunderstood?? The drive in show sounds fun, I'd be into going if we could get the border back open, though with the way the US is trending that doesn't sound likely by September.
  3. I've seen a lot of news articles lately about vaccines being developed faster than expected so hopefully it can be fully developed, manufactured, and distributed to the point where a majority of Americans have it by June 2021. But if it doesn't happen, I'm holding every single person who's already booked a hotel room accountable for jinxing it.
  4. Stray thoughts from last night's show: -Save It For Me is a keeper, I can't wait to hear the finished studio version. -Like all of Schmilco, Just Say Goodbye and Nope are underrated songs. It's a great record. -Cool to hear Promising, that's about as deep as a cut as one can get with Jeff's songs, but it's a good one.
  5. I thought it was a bold choice to name the album "Search Results Web Results"!! Nah but in all seriousness, I like the single XMU has played "Isabella", will check out the rest of the record!
  6. What a great idea! I was just thinking about the old VC tributes of yesteryear, nice to see a successor!

    Wilcopedia

    I actually picked this book up from a local bookseller here called Amazon. Well done to Daniel Johnson, it's well researched and compiled. I've been looking for a reference manual for a project I'm involved with, and while I still think a Wilco wiki would be a worthwhile endeavour for us as fans to do, this book is definitely useful. I was trying to use Greg Kot's book but without an index at the end, it's hard to use (not to mention Greg's book now has more years of Wilco's history that came after the book was published than before!! Greg, where's the update??).
  8. Interesting that Jeff said his next album will "probably" be a solo record, he almost seemed not entirely sure. TIN FOIL HAT TIME: I hypothesize a new Wilco record has been completely and/or mostly recorded but they don't want to drop it till they can tour for it. OR!!!! Maybe he was unsure if the incoming Summerteeth / Yankee Hotel Foxtrot deluxe editions counted?? Or... he just wasn't sure if how much he should reveal. But that's less fun.
  9. Great show. But I have to correct the record, as I've mentioned elsewhere, Neil is absolutely still a Canadian citizen as well as American. He's arguably our best songwriter, you guys already have Bob Dylan, why are you trying to take credit for Neil too?? The only way to make this right is on Wednesday (Canada Day), to do a special show of ONLY Canadian songs. Neil? Check. Leonard Cohen? Check. Tragically Hip? Sure. Robbie Robertson? Check. Rush? YES! Who's with me?!?!
  10. Agreed. Even if he finishes writing it this week, I imagine by the time you go through editing, changes from the publisher, manufacturing, it'll probably be awhile. And if they want the release to coincide with another book tour that could delay things further.
  11. No Tweedy Show tonight but bonus episode on Sunday, as per @stuffinourhouse on IG.
  12. Great note keeping Ziggy!
  13. Good luck on Thursday u2roolz!!
  14. Yeah, zero issue, but I also had zero issue with the Volkswagen ad back in the day. Maybe if they were writing and recording new material exclusively for advertisements... even then I didn't have much of an issue when Jack White did that for Coca Cola.
  15. The Tweedy family is being very generous with their time, talent, and in the case of Jeff, unreleased songs. Anything that can potentially be interpreted as taking advantage of that generosity should be treated with caution, IMHO. Personally I feel changing formats (video stream to audio files), compiling everything, and distributing them is a few steps beyond an audience recording of a concert, and could rub Jeff the wrong way. A bootleg of a show is audio you captured yourself, but this feels different. Unless of course, Susie gives it the OK. She seems pretty accessible so I think it'd be b
  16. That animated movie is a travesty! And not really a good representation of the franchise. I've actually never seen all of it, but I've tried twice to watch it and couldn't make it through. I recommend playing the Super Nintendo era games, Final Fantasy IV and VI. XIV is suppose to be really good, I played it a bit when A Realm Reborn launched and liked it, but since it's an online game to catch up to the rest of the player base is like... 200 hours or something like that. Anyways...
  17. That video game is Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn! Though Sammy is likely playing the Shadowbringers DLC.
  18. You can minimize them by tapping the middle of the screen, but yeah I could do without the comments that are just walls of emojis.
  19. So does that mean there's a universe where Uncle Tupelo is destined to get back together?
  20. Diane, apologies if you felt I was saying you should have shared it. My suggestion was it would have been nice if someone (probably the organizers) would have shared the idea with other Wilco online communities like VC or even the somewhat active subreddit, but definitely not singling you out individually.
  21. Exactly why posting about it on VC, even if just in this thread, could have got more people involved.
  22. Yeah but it's hard to follow as closely as I do Via Chicago. The first time I saw Nichole's post was tonight during the show after people started commenting on it again, it just never appeared for me last week (though every time someone posts that Wilco have a song in a bean commercial, Facebook decides it's really important I see it!!). Was it ever pinned to the top?
  23. Cool for everyone that got to be in the video. I wish the invitation was shared over here too!
