I made the same second step after reading Black Swan Green. I found Le Grand Meaulnes to be a cool book, although I didn't actually enjoy it as much as Mitchell's book that referenced it so aggresively. I know that makes me look like a philistine since MItchell is contemporary fiction and Meaulnes is a revered classic. Tell us what you think when you finish it. I see a connection in the theme of young men dreaming of the bigger world beyond the village, beyond that it seems pretty different.

I'd say Born Alone would be the "single" from this album. The dynamics are great, the hook is great. It's a mix of sugary and chaotic.... what's not to like? Open Mind is good. Everything else on the album is great. This thread started about one song.... it's in the subtitle of the thread. But I like talking about the album anyways, cause I'm actually still excited about it; best moment for me as a Wilco fan since A Ghost Is Born was released.

The irony of calling an environmental agenda "suicidal" escapes Palin like methane from a steer.

Face it everyone, the world is about to end. Just like it was about to end when John the Divine wrote Revelations around 100 AD, or when it almost ended during the cold war. All of the signs are pointing to a monolithic fiat-currency based, Zionist, diet pill, pyramid scheme eating all of the young people and using their bones to build a space ship. But.... that's American politics these days

Maher (smug as always), for the win.

I would argue the opposite. There are still a lot of talking heads and bumper stickers that throw "commie" at anyone who advocates for a welfare state. If I call someone a shithead, even the casual listener is going to ask me for evidence. It doesn't have a lot of mileage as an ad hominem attack. But I'm glad you brought up the term, it's a big part of how these wars of words are fought. Let's see what a list of red herrings, and ad hominem attacks could be in our quarrelsome political climate: Obamacare Flip-flopper Reaganite One percenter Elitist What others are there?

Tea Party is to conservative as Marxist is to liberal. It is a specific method of interpreting an economic theory and a social ideology. Therefore, calling an unknown conservative a shithead is a big leap, calling a teapartier a shithead is not as big of a leap. I would imagine any person who has an intellectual tendency towards fiscal conservatism, and has a sense of dignity, wouldn't fly a tea party flag at this point. They've already let their loonier elements make a caricature of them at this point. I think either "Republican" or even "Libertarian" would be a more dignified handle a

My relationship with Wilco has lasted longer than any of my relationships with women. Being There still reminds me of a camping trip with a girlfriend, several girlfriends back. AGIB reminds me of the beginning of a long relationship and WTA reminds me of the end. Maybe The Whole Love will someday remind me of my current relationship. Sooner or later I'm going to get married, or Wilco is going to break up..... neither sound like a good idea.

Yeah, if you have a problem with that.... your life has a shortage of problems.

Any band that J Robbins has been in charge of.

If you go to Wilcoworld look under shows. There will be a link for tickets, if there is any password requirements it will explore from there.

Viva la revolucion!

I am totally there!!!!

I heard something from the album before this that sounded cool, but this song sounds like a Pepsi commercial.

It's ok. You won't have to buy it if you don't want to.

Yeah, Denver sports have a sudden interest in breakable, aging, greats, throwing things..... well.

Wait a minute, corporations should get tax breaks because it's dumb for Americans to think things are free? Or You shouldn't insist the government close tax loop holes because the corporations qualified for them? Those arguments don't look very good.
