  1. Fantastic performance! Although it stops playing about halfway through...Nevertheless, fantastic

    blisters!

    PLEASE tell me someone saw the Blisters at lollapalooza yesterday! I've seen the ad and the mini-documentary thing...but I can't get enough..I'm praying someone got some adorable photos! People, it's time we start posting MP3s of other members of the Tweedy clan
  3. From the auction site: Special Instructions: Signed by John Stirratt, Jeff Tweedy, Nels Cline, Pat Sansone and Glenn Kotche. Wrote "play this" and to The Firefighters Fund. Guess Mike was elsewhere.
  4. Anyone know which Wilco/Smith song will be on the forthcoming dvd?
  5. That was Chapel Hill, homeboy.
  6. If you have a Top 40 hit, that doesn't mean you're on TRL, doods. I didn't see Thom Yorke kickin' it in Times Square with Damien. I think it's possible for them to gain a bigger fanbase. Besides, wouldn't it be rewarding to see them up high on Billboard next to a bunch of clowns? You know they'd keep their core values as a band...they have thus far... Quit the indie backlash b/s
  7. What an oversight. Touche.

    Frustrated

    I cannot for the life of me figure out how this album is being recorded with Wilco touring, then Jeff, then Nels and Glenn and all the rest of it...I'm getting frustrated. I'm willing to pack away the live shows so they can get started. Also, I'm puzzled by this new record. No band fallout and lineup changes? Have we hit a dry spot? I don't think so. I think this is the perfect lineup.
  9. I'm a seventeen year old(legal in august!) aspiring journalist (i'm hoping for NYU fall of '07) and I have a girlfriend of two years and a few months, whom I slowly, slowly turned into a wilco fan with the aid of countless mixes and 2 shows (and tweedy in august!). I work at a drycleaner in my neighborhood, and, when it's slow (and it usually is) I love to crank Being There. Unfortunately, I don't have a vivid "first time" moment, although I do believe it was Jesus Etc. I went out and bought YHF instantly, fell in love and have since bought each Wilco album twice (scratched up older copies,
  10. Absolutely hilarious....mashup, anyone? I guess having kids exposes you do those damn kiddie shows...in turn, those melodies creep back into the dark corners of your pop-song writing psyche.
  11. Um, thanks for the ITMWLY....never heard it. I think there's a minimal likeness in the intro...this ain't no Vanilla Ice / Under Pressure shit, though. Oh, and I think that Wilco did, in fact, pull it off.

    Argh

    I'm so irritated by the fact-checking that goes into these wilco show reviews! I read every article on the Canadian tour, and they were all full of embarassing slip-ups (Minus one, which referenced "Pecan Pie", whether it was intentional or not). One journalist mentioned the moment where Jeff spreads his arms and repeats "I Love." I Love I Love I Love is all we have I mean, if they messed up a lyrics in some semi-obscure gem, I'd understand. But if you've heard Wilco, you've undoubtedly heard "Jesus, Etc." Does this stuff irritate anyone else? I think it's for two reasons 1) I'm jealo
  13. The Wilco Book bonus disc...now all I do is pray/dream for a live performance of "The High Heat"...although "Diamond Claw" was love at first spin
  14. When I listen to Impossible Germany (this July 10th version), I can almost fill in the lyrics "and it doessssn't seem to mean anything..." from you-know-where. Try it from 3:35 - 3:44
  15. I don't know when that was. All I can remember is hearing...songs that wound up on AGIB. So...maybe you're on the wrong forum. Maybe check the Comatorium. I'm so psyched. Especially in the wake of a solo Jeff DVD news, I really don't mind the boys taking their sweet time to put this new one together. It's hard/impossible to guess what'll be a b-side and what'll be album-material, but I'm hearing this new stuff and all I can envision is this new, refreshed Wilco, who, in it's later years, has shed pounds, come out of a bad divorce and looks great naked. I'm thinking more summerteethy organ sw
  16. www.oink.me.uk search "complete wilco discography"
  17. really, i'd love to hear any of them that are prefaced/ended with some banter...i love banter post any!
