I thought side 2 zep 3

I once had a conversation with someone that basically went.. Kurt Cobain wouldnt have been as creative without the influence of drugs. Now that was years ago, and despite my feeling on how overrated yet important nirvana was, I know that what I said about the influence of drugs was completely wrong. Creative people have the same share of vices as everyone, some use it as inspiration or some kind of enhancement, but Ive come to feel its pretty superficial... I know a lot of reviews that were about the tone of the record being overly influenced by the blue skies of being out of rehab and what no

thats worse than my "~" real question though: is thanks i get a bonus track through somewhere??

ay 18, 2007 Wilco to Try That Whole "Band" Thing on for Size One of the most revealing things Wilco's leader Jeff Tweedy says on this week's Sound Opinions (airing on WBEZ 8 p.m. tonight, 11 a.m. tomorrow, and available as a podcast after that) is his answer to Greg Kot's question of what stood in the way of Wilco being truly collaborative in the past. Tweedy answers, "Well, I probably stood in the way of that a lot of times, to be completely honest." We've been following Tweedy's career ever since our neighbor used to drag us to see this little band her brother played drums for named Uncle

I never thought 1 sentence, especially on a message board, could say so much about a person

Sorry for the harsh words... The go fuck yourself was a little harsh, but I was angry about it. I went on the board to see what song was played... Ive done everything I can to avoid having the big surprise from the Sopranos ruined, I missed it Sunday night and that was the first time I could watch it since. Its not like Im mad you spoiled the ending to the Sixth Sense, it was somethin that was released about 48 hours ago.

Alright I know this is harsh, im honestly this angry, Ive watched this show for the entire series and you gave away one of the biggest things thats ever happened on the show and completely ruined it for me... I was literally opening the recording on my DVR when i thought id check and see what song got played... so im sorry but i have to say this to you: go fuck yourself.

Also raining in Chicago but rode around on my bike listening to the record... its a happy day when a wilco album is released

I hope they play You Are My Face and knock it out of the park... it is Jeffs favorite song

agreed, but their album like totally rocks

I wasnt taking it that way at all... its funny though because this is exactly where a post about license plates would lead haha

In my defense, I was not quoting myself. It was a signature, it was meant as a joke, which leads me to: The origin of The Shua As for "what is theshua?" - its a joke with some friends of mine, I know this girl whos a wannabe hippie and not coincidentally a total fool.. anyway a group of us went to a Ben Harper concert and after she randomly said "if my name was Joshua I would totally make people call me the Shua..." so as an inside joke, making fun of her, people would say hey shua sarcastically.. It's all about having a sense of humor about yourself... i think it was misinterpreted in the

Well I wasnt quoting myself, it was simply a signature... Also from now on I will refrain from using "~" as to not offend internet geeks whos masculinity is challenged by a squiggly line. It's a user name, its joke, go make some more license plates.

because you have nothing better to do??

maybe a 5.2 out of 5.2

I bought this at the art store last night but havent gotten a chance to read it yet, I feel overwhelmed by Wilco articles..

I think its pretty funny you went through the trouble of going to that site and uploading that to the topic... its like the atomic bomb of anonymously making fun of someone on a message board for reasons you cant even fathom... Honestly I really dont get it, my handle online makes you think im some kind of jerk off or whats the deal?

i still dont get it.

so is this not true..? a joke? update?

theres someone in chicago who actually has "WILCO" i see it every now and then...

yea it was the only thing that was released.... man i want to see that footage so bad.

I couldnt think of a way to title the topic that wasnt a huge tease, but how great would a wilco unplugged be? I hate MTV as much as the next music snob but today I was listening to Nirvana's unplugged and I realized there were a lot of really classic performances on that show... Claptons was amazing too. Wouldn't it be incredible to see Wilco put on a performance like that? A kind of cross between a Tweedy solo show but with everyone involved? I miss nels coming in and tickling my ear drum during tweedy solo shows. I dont really know what the point of this post is, but it seems like theres th

its at 4 now, still linkin park at 3...

Also interesting, the Chicago Tribune's review after Jeff challenged them to write another "nice thing about them" at Farm Aid.. Here's their review: Wilco's intimate "Sky Blue Sky" Wilco singer Jeff Tweedy sits at the kitchen table in the band

Gray skies gone blue Though he'd rather make music than talk to the press, Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy has a lot to say May 13, 2007 BY JIM DeROGATIS Pop Music Critic For all his talk about being happy, Jeff Tweedy doesn't smile much, Sun-Times photographer Keith Hale noted after a recent visit to the loft that the Chicago band Wilco maintains as a rehearsal space and recording studio on the Northwest side. Only once during a two-hour interview and photo session did the singer and songwriter break into a full-fledged grin, when he sat surrounded by a dozen guitars and talked about buy
