you ever seen a ghost?

glorious! starting up the stream again if i can. i guess once that rip is available, i won't be listening to anything else for awhile... -justin

i heard it's going to be "Walken." hopefully the full album will have leaked by then anyway... -justin

of course you'd vouch for him, you'd be listening to the new Wilco album too! at any rate, i'm sure that he's full of shit. until then, i'll keep hitting refresh... -justin

yeah, these songs are really amazing. the record needs to leak immediately. i'm really hoping it will leak by Saturday and give my weekend some color. -justin

well, my hunger has subsided...for about 5 minutes. i caught this right before i left for work, so i downloaded the songs, put them on my iPod and am still listening over and over. now i need the entire record...to put the songs in context and....well, simply to have the rest of 'em! -justin

god bless the internet. if it were only a couple of years ago, we wouldn't have things like bittorrents, oink, leaked albums, etc. seriously though, where is it? knowing it will be leaked in a week only makes me want it more. i'd love to get off work, relax and listen to Sky Blue Sky. it would be the best thing in the world right about now i think... -justin

it would be cool if the album leaked before i vomited in frustration, lost control of my bowels in anticipation and went completely, irrevocably insane - all at once. i fucking hating waiting. -justin

thanks for the review! i was thinking it could leak any day, but now it seems inevitable. knowing it could be at 1:00 PM or this weekend or whenever is killing me. i must have it right away. that having been said, i don't think that it would be a problem if someone leaked a review copy...anyone on this board will be buying a copy. plus, Wilco obviously don't care if people hear the album early. -justin

it grew on me recently as well. before it was simply "alright," now, it's one of my favorites of the new tunes. -justin

>By the way, anyone surprised to see On and On and On make the cut? not me. as i said, i talked to Jeff after the C-ville show and i asked him specifically about this song (since it really was gorgeous and perfect in it's live incarnation. he said that it was a very good possibility that it would make the cut. i'm assuming it's the last song on the album b/c he decided to add it after i spoke to him. j/k, of course. i am glad to see 2-3 unheard songs on the album. i'm thinking that the poster who said "You Are My Face" is LGNC has transcribed the lyrics or something and is right..

of course, "Is This The Thanks I Get?" isn't supposed to be on the new record, according to what Jeff said at the one show. didn't he say it would be on the one after that? also, I spoke to Jeff a couple of weeks ago and he said it was a good possibility that "On & On & On" would be on the next record. i'm glad too. -justin

less poetic? bullshit. maybe on "What Light," "Walken" and "Is This The Thanks I Get?". take a look at the lyrics to these two songs which i recently transcribed. you would have said the same thing if you'd heard "I'm A Wheel" and "The Late Greats" before AGIB came out. "Shake It Off" sunlight angles on wooden floor at dawn ceiling fan is on chopping up my dreams what is left of them take to sleep again where i dare pretend i'm more than i seem tears get triggered yours remind me of the ice melting in my glass finally full again so i'll listen for your lips to break apart into words

also, where did Monday and How To Fight Loneliness come from? i'd love to hear the latter if anyone has it... thanks in advance! -justin

i'm going to try again. if not, can you please e-mail (notdarkyet@aol.com) me? i d/led the two other torrents, but won't burn them if i can get your recording. thanks! -justin

cool. thanks! i e-mailed you a couple of hours ago (notdarkyet AT aol.com). did it come through? thanks and all the best, -justin

i tried to e-mail you. is that supposed to be two titos or just one? -justin

renic, is your recording a (lossy) capture of the internet stream or an audience recording? -justin

glad to see at least 3 people on the board representing Richmond last night! -justin

yeah, good times. my first time seeing Jeff solo as well. got to meet with Jeff and talk with him after the show. i asked him if "On & On & On" would be on the new record and he said it was a good possibility. i had an excellent time. i only wished he'd played "Sky Blue Sky," but i can't complain! -justin

i'm on a Dylan message board too and if i'm hitting up a show, i usually meet some of the people before/after. so, anyone up for a beer or something pre-show? it's right there on the mall, right? if so, e-mail me at notdarkyet(at)aol.com. -justin

i'll be there. 2nd row, left...orchestra. looks like i'm not the only one coming from Richmond! -justin

Discovered Wilco back in 2002 when YHF came out because I am a huge music nerd myself. As far as Wilco goes, I like the Mermaid stuff, but mostly listen to Summerteeth, YHF, AGIB, the two EPs, Kicking Television and the bootlegs (live and outtakes).
