Papillon Parade

I did this recently...

Yes, this is excellent!

In an effort to get off my lazy ass and do more fun things like Wilco paintings, I have canceled my cable. Good things to come!

A couple of photos from the show

My Savior -

Ahhhh, what a great show! That'll be my 5th show and they get better every time. Everyone played in fine form and Pat was looking DAMN good with his new beard

T-minus 4 hours...can't wait!!

Heading to the Halifax show tonight! We just drove by the venue and thought we saw the boys...unfortunately it was just some other fan creepers like ourselves hoping for a glimpse! T-minus 5 hours

In no particular order...

I came within 5 feet of Nels at the Halifax waterfront show. It was about 4 in the afternoon and we were waiting to snag a spot up front for the outdoor show. Only a few other people were around that early, probably because of the blistering heat. I was sitting on the curb and looked up to see Nels sauntering over in those red flood plants. He walked right up to the guy in front of us who ended up being a buddy of his and I froze. He was right there! And I blew it.

I made up for it kinda by meeting Glenn before a Massey Hall show in Toronto. I knew not to let the opportunity pass again .

Just heard the good news about the boys coming to Halifax! The multipurpose room holds around 1200...just saw Modest Mouse there a few weeks ago. Gonna be one sweaty winter night!

Annyong.

I would drive to any show east of New Brunswick! Fingers crossed!

No! Are You Being Served? was my introduction to British comedy. RIP

Holy mother fuck of god...........this is just......i'm beyond words at this point.

 

 

Thanks Donna and Scott......

I've heard you are quite a big fan...*BIG HUGS*

Man, I'm just feeling all washed out with sadness.

I feel the same way

I can only imagine all the mixed feelings Jeff is having.

I really do wish it was possible for a bunch of us to get together and listen to some good music. I feel like being around other fans right now.

Man, this is really upsetting. I sincerely hope you Rest In Peace.

I think he's great. The only other video he posted besides ITMWLY is a kick ass version of Something.

I sing. I can't help myself, and I love every minute of it!

Cape Breton Island can definitely spare some good vibrations for Kidsmoke's Pops!

Sounds like you had a great night of music, good stuff...even if I am completely jealous

...and he's fantastic.

Yesterday my b/f and I took the new album on a drive through the country and gave it a good concentrated listen. I am loving it! Bull Black Nova and I Fight are standouts for me. I love how each song sounds so different and can't wait to hear some live!

In 2006 I saw Wilco at Massey Hall it changed my life, in 2007 i saw them agin 2008 no shows thats cool, 2009 wtf there better be a Massey ahll show.

seriously, I guesse it will be in september or early fall that sucks.

You think YOU have it rough? I live on Cape Breton Island. Can you guess how many times they've come here? Suck it up dude. I've had to travel AT LEAST 5 hours to all 4 of the Wilco shows I've been to.

Movies - C.R.A.Z.Y. This is one of my top ten fave movies. Soundtrack includes Patsy Cline, Pink Floyd and David Bowie. Bon Cop, Bad Cop was also good. Music - Definitely check out Joel Plaskett. He's fantastic. Also, Elliott Brood from Toronto is great as is Sam Roberts from Montreal. Local hero Matt Mays is worth checking out and if you can see Hawksley Workman live, do it. TV - The Hour with my tv boyfriend George Strombolopolis. Marketplace and The Fifth Estate are favourites of mine too. Eh.

The thought of them calling it quits brings tears to my eyes.

as an aside, the only really infuriating thing about will is how scattered his music is! all those eps, 7", compilations, singles, albums under different names/spellings....it's crazy. and, some of those random tunes are awesome! for example, his recent single with the bewarers, what ever the hell that is. it's a great song, but not on the new album!!

Douchebaggery strikes again!

i was really looking forward to beware. heard it was the best yet...but, it's still the same BS. oldham, who can sing if he wants, just rambling. if i was a musician for higher, i would not back this dude. let's be honest, he sux. i am so tired of artists getting all this praise for just being shitty! it's ridiculous and if this is the future of indie music, then i'll just stick with old standbys. when did 'trying to sound' bad and out of key become cool? i'm talking to you will oldham, jim james, conor oberst, etc.

I'll mention to Will not to contact you next time he goes on tour. I'm sure he'll be crushed.
