lost highway

I feel like I didn't engage enough to hit 10. Some of the ones I like are still on my 'to buy' list, and I still need to listen more. All said, I dig: Big Thief- Capacity Rainer Maria- S/T Hiss Golden Messenger- Hallelujah Anyhow Kurt Vile and Courtney Barnett So far I'm feeling kind of disappointed with the new Queens of the Stone Age and the new Ted Leo. I'm not surprised at the mixed bag that is the new Foo Fighters record, so you can't call it disappointment just confirmation bias. That record is crazy. It makes me feel stoned when I'm not. Pretty cool stuff though.

No, I think it was more about subject verb agreement.

I don't think anyone on here- including the ones arguing with you here- would disagree with any of this. Although, I will say my inner libertarian (which is about 5% of my political brain) has to wonder how one would stop catcalling.

Sounds pretty good to me.

The only problem with the office party analogy is it assumes he sexually harassed someone on the job as a senator. He didn't. It was when he was a comedian. I agree with the other comment that it is up to voters to decide, it's unfortunate that he's not up for re-election next year because that would seem the most fitting trial for his character.

Yes, this exactly. Sexual harassment is never acceptable. That does not mean that all transgressions are the same. If you look at what Louis C.K. did, versus what Roy Moore was doing, versus what Donald Trump allegedly has done, or Bill Clinton for that matter- they're all different. Yes, they are all men using their power in unethical ways but the degree and implications vary. It is high time all of these skeletons come out of all of these closets. This is a great opportunity to push back against rampant patriarchy. That does not mean that we should become politically correct puritans who

They did mention on the text below the live stream on facebook they're taking a touring hiatus in 2018 for recording. So... new Wilco record Always a good thing

Some 27 songs from some 11 albums. I see a lot of repeats, but as has been said before, I think they're playing to the people in the town who don't see Wilco multiple times a year. They feature 3-5 songs from the latest record and then balance fan favorites with ones the band likes. I already whined about a few songs I wish they'd play now that they're in Schmilco plus greatest hits mode, but I think if you lived in the Twin Cities and hadn't seen the band in 2-3 years this is setup to be a good time.

Loved the stream. Does anyone miss hearing More, Cold Slope and King of You? Those dropped off the setlists fast when Schmilco came out.

Damn it, Al! That stings about as bad as Louis CK. So many reckonings.

Nice little ditty,

NPR posted a pretty incredible graph on their website today:

I like it. Doesn't feel like a Wilco song to me, but I like it.

Did Spencer play drums on it?

In this game you don't have to be smart enough to mastermind collusion. Just willing to let your team do it when they put it in front of you as a winning strategy.

Manafort's 'not guilty' pleas is interesting. I'll be really curious what Mueller has prepared and how much Manafort's cache of lawyers can do to combat it.

^ I'll take all of the above.

This is nuts! I wasn't around for Watergate, so I'm pretty riveted to see some crazy American history happening in real time.

Yeah, CNN got pretty psyched about getting the scoop on that one. It is either something huge, something tiny, or something in between which is importantly leading to something huge.

We live in an era where I am forced to acknowledge that George W Bush might have made the world ripe for Trumpism through his foreign policy disasters and economic blunders, but he's totally right about Trump and I'm glad he said it. Hey neoliberal, thanks for calling out the populist you're right about him and he was right about you!

So wait, is John just playing bass for Ray LaMontaigne, or is he featured as another performing songwriter?

I'm looking for details on what all is included in the deluxe versions (especially Being There) but they haven't put them up yet.

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes!

On second look. No, probably not. Just a visit to a cool/historic studio while on tour, I'm guessing.

Wait.... Are they making a new record? Not at the loft? What?
