Wilco LP #7

This article and VZ's words offend me. There is SO MUCH new and great music around, and he is either too comfortable with the sound of his day or too lazy to do any real research to know that. That Rock and Roll is nothing like it was in his day is a damn good thing, because nothing bores me more than tired ass music. And nothing pisses me off more than radio stations that share his attitude and play nothing but 60's and 70's rock and claim that is THE MUSIC FOR THE AGES, or some shit like that. People just want to believe that their generation is more special, and for some reason a huge conti

Agreed

I had a fantasy. It happened halfway between being awake and not-awake in my bed, and I was very drunk. The name of the new LP was Dark Neon, and the narrative of the album partially reflected the theme of the fading Middle America so present in the new live DVD. I thought of dingy neon signs outside of mid-population venues/bars/dives, like Otto's in Dekalb. Sigh...

The more I think about it, the more I want it to be called Dark Neon

watching it now. it is very awesome.

this terrifies me, but not as much as it excites me.

Just got a promotional copy of this in at my student radio station, KRUI in Iowa City. We're gonna do some free showings on Monday the 20th. If you live anywhere near, come on by! We're doing showings at 7 and 9.

Went to the Dekalb show on Saturday and had a great time. Brought earplugs but did NOT wear them (it just feels wrong to me), and my ears are still recovering. They gave away their 7 inch for free, with the p4k sessions of the new song and of Tarpit. Good stuff. Can't wait for the new LP. valid point, but Dino is playing much smaller venues: bars and dives. the sound has much less room to travel. and, i doubt mbv is MUCH louder.

does anyone want to help me out with recordings of the new songs. PM me if you're a kind soul. thanks!

You see, I hated SBS when I initially heard it. My expectations ruined it. Not that it was worse than what I expected, it's just that no matter how it sounded it wasn't going to meet the album I'd already expected and been playing in my head for the months and months and months leading up to it. It took me about 6 or 7 listens to fall in love with SBS. That lasted about 3 months. And really, I only loved it because it was NEW WILCO music, you know? Once the honeymoon wore off, I never really went back to SBS. It's easily my least favorite Wilco album. But that's not really the issue, is it?

Among multiple connotations of the word weary, here is one: 3. impatient or dissatisfied with something (often fol. by of): weary of excuses.

At some point I know I know I'll be dying to hear the mixes pre-Nels and Mike. I'm a bit weary of the way this was recorded, those two doing overdubs way after the fact.

Sorry if this has been covered, but I've no time to sift through this pretty big thread: how big were the milwaukee pre-sales?

Am I the only one that doesn't care about connecting Wilco to Obama or the government in any way?

I can reveal how Wilco fits into the script, but for those who'd rather not know I'll put up a SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT Seth Rogen plays the main character. He's a struggling young comedian named Ira. He's got a crush on a girl that lives in his apartment complex (his roommates are Jonah Hill and Jason Schwartzman), and he invites her to a Wilco concert. She accepts, but they don't end up going. Ira catches Mark (Schwartzman) and the girl he likes (Daisy? I think that's her name), doing the deed, and he gets pissed at her and calls it off. He ends up scalping the tickets. When I read th

I read the script for Judd Apatow's next directorial feature, "Funny People." A Wilco concert is often referred to in the plot, but the concert itself is not in the script. Sorry if this has been covered.

Who put out the better folky album of 08? I think I choose TMOE.

I watched "Strange Wilderness" tonight. It's a very crappy comedy put out by Adam Sandler's production company. In one of the movie's scenes a character dons a Wilco t-shirt. You probably don't want to watch this movie, so just take my word for it.

faster.

New Deerhunter is fucking fantastic.

I don't think that aggressive unfriendliness is funny at all.

Here's to hoping for a new track

I haven't, but I saw him open for The Felice Brothers and he was wonderful.

The best band in the world shouldn't be so one-dimensional.
