how lucky are we, that we, the "enlightened" music listeners are able to discuss a band that is worth discussing? No matter where this album ranks in the history of Wilco albums, I feel blessed to be a witness to the discussion.

Same as well. I wish I didn't miss the streaming, this makes me so excited to hear the whole thing.

RIGHT! I thought the same thing. People actually already have a copy?

That solo is easily one of my favorite moments in all of the rock music I have listened to in my life. Bravo Mr. Cline. Bravo. As far as Ashes is concerned, I always thought it was about war veterans and THEIR disconnect, that they were the fallen leaves filling up shopping bags.....but I am probably wrong.

I have to admit, I do not know the name of the song, (as I have just now found steady employment and can afford such things as a new computer and high speed internet) but the insturmental they did while recording YHF which consits of mostly piano and Glenn's brushes gently sliding over the snare, (in the movie IATTBYH there are lyrics) is easily one of those "Wilco moments" where I am beyond a Wilco geek just loving a band regardless but rather a witness to something special...a crazy sense of pride in the fact that I can understand just how special what I just listened to was. I wish it was

Not only is he a Wilco fan, but clearly inspiring. Every time I hear him speak I am humbled, yet empowered with the mind set of optimism and hope... and it makes me feel I might again believe in a country I was once so proud of.

Does any one know if What light/There's a light, is going to be on the record?

I hate it when I go to a show and the song is different. I personally like seeing how a song is played on the guitar, or what effects they use to achieve a sound. But I hate it more than anything when a song is played completely different. I mean, it must get boring playing the same songs night after night, but us the fans have payed good money for tickets. I don't want to hear a joke version of Monday, or Heavy Metal Drummer. And as much as I love Tweedy, I can't stomach his harmonica, long drawn out version of Sunken Treasure, which on Being There is beautiful, haunting, and one of my

My goodness, GINO's East Pizza on Lincoln/Diversy for two great reasons. 1) Chicago style pizza has to be eaten in Chicago to understand why it is the greatest food invented and 2) Gino's East has parking! If you are driving, you don't want to deal with trying to find a meter, or paying for valet. I also recommend Leona's, awesome fun Italian eatery that is perfect for people visiting Chicago, it is at Racine and Belmont, directly across the street from The Vic Theatre, home of Kicking Television.

After reading 15 pages discussing this incident, I ask the powers to be to close my thread. In my defense, my internet was down for a bit, I can't believe I am the last Wilco fanatic to hear of this. Sheesh. By the by, I feel the most sorry for Jeff. It had to be unneeded stress.

I just heard Tweedy punched some guy in the face that climbed up on stage during a show. Is this true? Am I the last person to know about this? Where is the thread regarding this? I can't believe it.

I think Nels' solos are easily the best Wilco has ever seen. I imagine he plays in the style that Tweedy deems fit for each song. His solo on Ashes of American Flags off Kicking Television proves he can play the perfect rock solo anytime he wants.

Dear Goodness, it was a JOKE, and more than anything a joke based on the fact that anytime Jay's name is brought up on VC, a Jay/Nels debate always seems to unfold. Why some people on this site get so defensive and uptight over a message board fan site is beyond me. P.S. I love Wilco. Take a deep breath there buddy.

All three of you, give me the exact info to pay up. The picture of the kid from Better Off Dead demanding his four dollars made my day. Hilarious. Go Chiefs.

The Chiefs. They're back.

Ah, Thanksgiving and Wilco. Too bad its not at the Riviera like the good old days.

Nice Pool. That has to be a great drunken time.
