  1. This sums it up pretty well. It's nice to hear some tonal variety and space in the mix...
  2. Pitchfork with its customary 7 https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/wilco-cousin/
  3. I agree that "Everyone Hides" is a lot like "Someone to Lose" and "RNG" etc. but the ending is terrific. I'm looking forward to hearing the album. Based on the seven songs I heard in Antwerp last week, the drumming is really unusual and great.
  4. Always nice to see the set lists here. I saw a photo posted on the FB page; they had Locator on the list as first encore, but dropped it. The 10:30 curfew at AB is hard AF.
  5. Tickets obtained for both nights in Brussels Hoping there'll be a new album right before that tour starts...
  6. Thanks for posting. I was there and your description pretty much captures it! I'm an American living in Belgium who always cringes when people shout out stuff during shows (though a lot of times they are Flemish, not American ). Highlights for me: I'm Always in Love, Bull Black Nova, Impossible Germany (given new life without Nels' solo!), Please Tell My Brother. This may have been JT's first solo show in Belgium, but he did play Leuven a few years ago with the Tweedy band -- a show that included a solo acoustic set.
  7. Same here, just got my Together at Last vinyl, and am very excited! I listen to vinyl all the time, especially Wilco and Tweedy records -- which are so rewarding on vinyl. But I also like to have on my iPod. If anyone has a link I'd appreciate it...
  8. Speaking as a fellow 50-year-old, I second that emotion!
  9. Too bad about the geoblocking. Yeah, that's a great performance from 2002.
  10. Really nice performance of "Random Name Generator" here: https://youtu.be/yrEmI5mhytc I love the guitar freakout at the end. This was from the Tuesday night preview show on BBC. I'm hoping they did another song and it'll be on tomorrow night when the full show airs. Oh and I'm so ready for tonight and tomorrow night's Brussels shows!
  11. And another review in the Wall Street Journal.... http://www.wsj.com/articles/schmilco-by-wilco-review-somber-sepia-toned-tunes-1473803967
  12. In case not posted yet, a review in .... the Financial Times! Not very well written but 4/5 stars. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/6e9197a4-7494-11e6-bf48-b372cdb1043a.html
  13. Normal American Kids is now one of my favorite Wilco songs. I think it's perfect.
  14. So, the album is actually 1/6 waltzes!
  15. Except for "Normal American Kids"?
  16. Pitchfork bestows its traditional Wilco 7 http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/22355-schmilco/
  17. I got my green vinyl LP (no bundle) on Monday via Frocksteady. I had been sent the download link on Friday! But one of my coworkers ordered on the same day as I did and still hasn't received his...
  18. Yeah I definitely get a Big Star vibe off of that song. Also the bass line on that and on Locator both remind me of Can't Stand It.
  19. I just got it officially, via Frocksteady, the EU Wilco store. They sent me the download link, and told me the LP is on its way to me. I haven't listened yet, but the record is out there now, legally, for some.
