That sounds more like the "fucked up country record"!! I really, really, dig what we can hear from If I Ever Were A Child. We need a green vinyl variant!

THE DREAM IS REAL!!!

I know it's a little obvious but Summerteeth. Especially the poppier songs, with their synthesizers and catchy melodies. Plus, you know, the name.

Still waiting for my email.... I wonder if this is a Star Wars outtake or peak at the next album? EDIT: iOS fails again. Great song, awesome bass from John. I hope they add this to their set lists. I love these surprise Wilco releases!

Not sure if any of you saw this but yesterday the Wilco facebook page posted this: The link leads to a signup the mailing list. So the whole thing kind of sounds like some news is about to be announced. Probably Solid Sound 2017 but we could hold out hope for the new album. Last year they timed Star Wars to be announced/released right before for the Pitchfork Fest, this year their big summer festival appears to be Fuji Rock in Japan on the 23rd. If they released the new album then they have some time to do press before the tour kicks off in August. Which will make sense since they've already

If it's real, I'm willing to bet they'll do a surprise release again. It was this time of year last year when Star Wars surprised us all so... maybe any day now??

Great story, you should definitely post that on the request a song link. My wife and I chose You and I as our first dance on our wedding night, it's maybe not my favourite Wilco song but it'll always hold a special place to us because of that.

Thanks for getting back to me! That's all good info. Easy Street is now on my list. I've actually heard of Silver Platters before and Zion's Gate which I also want to check out. A little sterile is fine for me, our only record store closed down a few years ago so any time I'm actually in a real record store now it's a pretty big deal. There's some of the artists playing at Bumbershoot that I definitely would have wanted to check out, Andrew Bird, Margo Price, Father John Misty, but the 3 day passes are pricy, that's pretty disappointing if it use to be free. We'll drive home on Sunday morni

Nice, another BC'er! We're driving down from Prince George, but we'll drive half way on Thursday evening so it shouldn't be too bad. We're staying at the Moore Hotel which was really affordable and sounds like it's not a dive, which was my big concern, it's just lacking some amenities. But we'll be able to leave the hotel and walk 20 feet and be at the venue, which is a-ok with me. We went to Vancouver in March to see Joanna Newsom which was suppose to be our big trip of the year, but I just can't resist two nights of Wilco! Thanks I haven't heard of Bumbershoot, I'll do some research!

Well I was originally worried about where to stay, but the wife just discovered there's a decent hotel right next to the Moore Theatre, so that takes care of that. How's driving downtown? How's the Moore Theatre area at night? Best record stores? Is the EMP Museum worth visiting?

In for September 2nd and 3rd in Seattle. I got decent seats both nights but probably not the ones I would have wanted, but I don't know how in demand Wilco would be in a venue like that so I took what I could get. If anyone has some advice for the city, it'll be my first time in the US, let me know!

Officially made the decision to go to both Seattle shows, since it's only an extra 2 hours to my 8 hour drive to Vancouver. Looks like I missed out on the presale though, oh well I can't see the general sale selling out that fast. I've never seen Wilco two nights in a row, I'm so excited!

Terrible news.... source.

It's definitely the best since A Ghost Is Born. I don't know if it's quite up to the level of Being There, Summerteeth, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, or Ghost, but it's pretty close.

Be careful not to order any pizza. People from Chicago often mix up "pizza" with "thick tomato soup in a breaded bowl", it's just not right.

I believe that was Aaron Sorkin who wrote Steve Jobs. Great film though! No Wilco but lots of Dylan songs and references. Another new Netflix show called Flaked, which I suggest everyone watches because it's fantastic, features Tweedy's Flowering.

I'll Fight starts playing at the end of the season finale of Love, which is a new Netflix show. Not surprising, it's a Judd Apatow series, he featured the band in Funny People. Which reminded me, I haven't listened to WTA in ages, I didn't even recognize the opening guitar bit.

Wow... RIP David Bowie.

Yeah, Jeff would never shoot first.

Growing up in a small, remote town, I never saw a ton of concerts, but in July 2003 I went to Edmonton AB and saw My Morning Jacket a few months before they released It Still Moves. I'd never heard of them before, I was there to see the Foo Fighters (I was 16!). I'll never forget hearing One Big Holiday and being completely awe struck. I had never heard a guitar solo like that before. It was the beginning of a big change for me, within a year my music tastes would have moved completely to Wilco, The Beatles, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, etc and the mid-2000s indie rock scene. But I like to think tha

Songs: Ohia has some great stuff, check out the Journey On collection. And Wilco, of course.

Quick, someone lend me $12358 CAD for that white telecaster. I promise to probably not pay you back!

I hope he drops some BOMB shells about Billy Bragg. I want an audiobook version read by Jay Farrar.

Now that the Cutting Edge is out the way is finally clear for Bootleg Series Volume 13: Blood on the Tracks right?? I want to hear 10 different versions of Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts.

Still waiting for my LP set to arrive, hopefully Monday or Tuesday. Spotify has a 15 track sampler, which I think is all from the 2CD/3LP set, and it's fantastic. In the meanwhile, Salon.com has a great writeup detailing the entire 18 disc set. I wish there was a way I could stream or pay for a (cheaper than physical) digital download, it sounds interesting. Just not $600 interesting, especially on CD.
