25 Years of Wilco: Tracing the Band's Live Evolution Through Their Bootlegs I may not read this article after reading the first sentence.

Meat Hair is the 3 dudes in Deep Sea Diver. They played 2 or 3 instrumental numbers to open the show I saw. I really liked it. Never heard so much rock that was based off the drumming more than anything else. With two real opener, I suppose they'll probably skip this.

Enjoy. Let me know what you think of Meat Hair if they open up.

Wilco — 4 November 2019, Grand Rapids, MI (20 Monroe Live)

At their gig in Des Moines, everyone in the band besides the singer "opened" as Meat Hair. They played some instrumental stuff. I'd never heard so much rock music clearly built around the drummer. I think that helped me get into their stuff a bit more. He is outstanding. -

Did anyone see Deep Sea Diver open? I saw them Friday in Des Moines. I really enjoyed them. -
I saw Deep See Diver Friday night. They'll be opening a few shows for Wilco soon. Enjoy. I was thorougly entertained. You probably won't get their cover of Reservations, which was great. https://youtu.be/wkVqY8OJbCw https://youtu.be/-S2_YVjOjXc Some videos recorded by a friend.

Picked this up yesterday. It's got some real gems. Parquet Courts kind of melds Handshake Drugs, I've Got You at the End of the Century, Bull Black Nova into one song. Very cool! Kurt Vile makes Passenger Side sound like he wrote it. I love Low's War on War. Puss n Boots features Norah Jones singing Jesus, Etc. which I believe she's done live. Definitely worth the $12 or $13 bucks w/o the magazine, which I haven't looked at yet.

I keep checking my local Barnes & Noble. As of Monday it still wasn't on the shelf.

I really enjoyed this book. Kind of epic in scope. The movie got horrible reviews. They may have bitten off more than they could chew. It may have been more effective as a miniseries.

Can't believe T Rex is just now getting in. Glad to see it.

I keep meaning to re-watch Jackie Brown. Perhaps this will light a fire under me to do so.

The internet and instant access to setlists must wreak havoc with many Arists. I often tell myself I won't look at recent setlists when I have a show coming up. My willpower to follow through is weak.

I've only listened once. It's a great album. I feel like I got a preview at Iowa's Hinterland Festival in August 2018. His keyboardist was sick and the played like a power trio with some wild extended guitar solos. Noisy and angry as hell.
-
So good!!

I listened to a lot of Cream yesterday. When you really focus on the drums... Baker was a beast!

Once Upon in Time in Hollywood has inspired me to read Helter Skelter. About 100 pages in and I am loving it.

I just got done with my first listen and am listening to Schmilco for comparison because, I haven't honestly listened to it that much. I am listening to both through headphones. I think I like the production on OTJ better. The drums pop more and there are more places where Nels' guitar is out front. Probably my favorite moment one listen in is the guitar solo on We Were Lucky. Overall, I can get why some like this album (moody, layered, quiet, introspective) and others don't (no real rock songs, lacking melody, similar to Schmilco and recent solo efforts). Probably my biggest disappointmen

This guy doesn't get it... https://ultimateclassicrock.com/wilco-albums-ranked/ I know we're still 3 days away from OTJ's official release, but I'm going to take a stab at it. 1) AM 2) BT 3) ST 4) YHF 5) AGIB 6) SBS 7) W(TA) 8) TWL 9) SW 10) Schmilco 11) OTJ

Wilco on Colbert this Monday night September 30th
uncool2pillow replied to u2roolz's topic in Just A Fan
I don't recall ever seeing Mikael play an actual piano before. That song sounds like it could belong in TWL, which is fine with me. -
I love it. I haven't listened to the whole live set yet, but there are some really great cuts on there. I always thought "I Won't" was one of their weakest tracks ever and even that's listenable. I saw them the night after the live set here at Roy Wilkins Auditorium in St. Paul. It was the night after my first date with the woman who would become my wife. I was in college at the time and spent the rest of that summer working at a summer camp about 3 hours away so I have a pretty emotional connection to that show and the "Can't Hardly Wait".

Pretty well aware of this. I might even assume after attending 100s of shows, he's gotten to know the guys in the band a bit. I was just curious about how appearing in the video came about. Who asked him? How long did it take? Any anecdotes from the filming?
