There is 'Let's Fight' and probably one or two others that they never played live. Possibly hidden away forever.......
-
They're great. I getta see them at a 150 capacity venue in a few weeks.

The show was possibly my favorite yet. The only moment I started to roll my eyes was when ITMWLY started for the upteenth show, but they have toyed with it a little and it was totally amazing. Drunk guy next to me was hollering to his friend that they would play 'I Got You' I almost bet him ten bucks they wouldn't. Good thing I didn't. Anyone who thinks Nels is all wank should have seen him pogoing like a teenager while strumming an open chord on Shot in the Arm. Beautiful show.

I'm leaving in an hour and I am so freakin excited. More on this later.

Yeah DVD. Whoooo!
-
Good to know. It costs around thirty bucks these days due to it being out of print I believe.

I love me some Bill Fay. I love s/t and Time of the Last Persecution. I like Tommorrow, Tommorrow, Tomorrow. The only one I haven't heard is the demos collection 'From the Bottom....' Anyone heard it? Reviews?
-
Foo Part is a Neu! song. Pass it on.

I like Gabor's on 13th St. Two blocks south of Colfax where the Filmore is located and a few blocks east up the hill. Very mellow, decent jukebox. If you like vegetarian cuisine there is a charming bar with veggie pizza and bar food at 13th and Grant called City O City. Fancy local beers, probably four or five blocks from the Fillmore.

Wilco errata, trivia, stats, and other mild obsessions

Only time I have ever laughed really hard from something on this board, and I think it was because that was really wrong for reasons I can't even understand.
-
Look at this guy on the Wilcoworld page (if you catch the right one). He's jumping like he's in Black Flag. That's a more visceral Wilco picture then ever I've seen.
-
I've got mine!!!! Oh sorry, I'm sure everything will work out well for you guys.
-
Does anyone have a live version available?

Predictions for Wilco's Tonight Show appearance?

You Are My Face. Probably. -
How long before the fillmore shows sell out?
lost highway replied to wilcohead's topic in Just A Fan
I got tickets forever ago. That place is gonna fill up, but I'll be curious if it will really sell out two nights in a row. -
What about the crazy feedback/violin intro to Misunderstood?
-
Maybe horrific would be more appropriate. Even if you have a soft spot for that song you will probably agree it sticks out in their catalog (hence the thread) its no shocker that it turns a few stomachs.

An 80's Gibson SG with a Seymour Duncan JB (for Jeff Beck) pickup in the bridge. An Alvarez Koa acoustic with an L.R. Baggs pickup. into: A Boss Tu2 Ibanez Tube Screamer Keeley Fuzzhead Crowther Prunes and Custard Boss Digital Delay 6 EH Holy Grail Boss EQ (for boosting solos and the acoustic signal) Boss RC-2 Loop Pedal Into a 70's Traynor tube amp that I always forget the model number.

I need to hear that song stripped down. As it stands on the record, probably one of the worst atrocities the band has ever commited. The way the vocals come in on the first verse "yuck". Its the closest wilco has ever gotten and will ever get (and at that its no where near as bad as) to Smashmouth. Sure Smashmouth would never have the Brian Wilson edge that song has, but I can still imagine it on a Shrek 3 preview "The way things go," (green Mike Myers hugs his donkey) "you get so low" (the princess gets kidnapped).
-
My enjoyment of that song seems heavily impacted by my mood/time of day. Sometimes it seems so serene, otherworldly. Othertimes it just sounds like a miss placed B-Side. I guess its best kept for driving in the late evening, early night. I can't imagine a live version being particularly memorable.

Yeah, but you want to talk elititsm, lets talk Mandarin Chinese. I never know what those people are talking about, and I know they know things that I don't. Just kills me. Same with Hindi, and apparantly those ancient Egyptians thought they were pretty fancy too.

Nels Cline is an alien flower pot.

Would aliens be able to make a good record without theory? Yes.
