Haha, i'll bring my camera, too. Yours just put mine to shame. I took some great pics at ACL last year, but indoor shows prove too tough for me.

one thing i love about attending oklahoma shows, i know incredible pics will emerge.

according to http://www.oklahomarock.com/venues.htm, it's about half that. But I'm thinking that might be a little low.

Yeah I left work in OKC about 4 that day, got there at 5:30 and I still got a space next to the stage. But I'll be there a little earlier this time since it's a Saturday. I suspect other people will be, too.

I absolutely, positively cannot wait for this show.

Thanks for posting those ballpark pics. I did a halfhearted search yesterday and couldn't find much. I'd like to get up there this year, maybe combine it with some shows at the 9:30, but we'll see.

WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush has been invited to throw out the first pitch on Opening Day, and Nationals president Stan Kasten said on Tuesday that Bush would attend "if he is at all able." Should Bush attend, the team has a suite that was built to handle presidential visits. When general manager Jim Bowden was shown the room, he was told it was the President's Suite, and mistakenly thought the room was Kasten's. Kasten laughed when he told the story to reporters, and clarified that his ballpark seats are not as nice as the other president's.

Steve Stone will do ChiSox radio. Didn't we see him pop up on TBS' postseason coverage last year? Maybe he'll do their Sunday afternoon games this year.

That is true, but unless something has changed from this 2006 press release, it doesn't look like the coverage will be all that extensive. Link

In addition to having an open mind, why not get your money's worth by seeing the openers? edit: not that Wilco isn't worth the admission price alone.

those aren't going to last long on youtube

"I beg your pardon, your majesty, but we don't accept bills with lipstick on the president"

I ate there before the Ryan Adams show in January and I plan to return with a larger group before Wilco.

Yep, I noticed the change right after I posted that. I think we've squared away the relationship now.

It says Wilco on Conan on my DVR. I think it's a go.

Between Conan and SNL, I just hope they play 3 different songs they haven't played on U.S. late-night shows already. But ... anyone but me think SNL might TELL them what to play?

Lots of country artists from here, for better or worse. Carrie, Garth, Reba, Vince, Toby, Cross Canadian Ragweed, etc. But I lean more toward Flaming Lips, Aqueduct and Woody Guthrie.

I'm sure she does. I'd still like to see a link before I plan the watch party.

No confirmation yet?

Thanks for allowing streams and taping, so the rest of the world can revel in the residency.

thanks for the great b-day present, Wilco and WXRT --Chad

Phillies' Kyle Kendrick gets traded to Japan ... or so he thinks.

or do a public records search on the Oklahoma County site. not that I've done that or anything.

different angle and no watermark from AP:

i just got an idea for a great ipod playlist. although i hope a breakup doesn't follow.
