hwllo

i go to niu and was in the building next door. it's crazy right now. there is a vigil at midnight tonight. all i can say right now is that the world is a fucked up place

this probably wil come out wrong because i'm a little under the weather (ie...drunk/sick) but to me, being there is kind f like the relationship between band and fan. there are lots of references to this outside of what you mentioned, like in kingpin, which is about the lead singer wanting the be 'the man' for the fans. also there is say you miss me which is about the struggles of band members with their loved ones while they are on tour. good luck!

you get the same magic moments every show because the songs are the same every show. i don't want this to sound like i don't love wilco because i do. i just think sometimes they get complacent inside their exhaustingly tight compositions. i've got like 6 wilco shows on my computer and i just picked songs at random that were played at all the shows and all the lengths were within 15 seconds of eachother. while it is nice they are tight, i'd almost like to see them loosen up a little. if nels in tearing up a solo let him go with it instead of ending it after the pre-determined 8 measures or wh

ok, the songs have changed a little, but is that more of an evolving thing or a "we have a new band every few years so it physically can't sound the same way" thing. i love wilco, i don't find their songs boring, but perhaps a little repetitive since a lot of the same songs are played night in/night out, but that's fine. the grateful dead on the other hand was a freak of nature, they were all so good at what they do and they are the pinnacle of a live band because CDs don't do them justice one bit. they didn't make their name because of records they made it by touring. while wilco is a gre

it shouldn't be suprising they are selling out fast, wilco is quickly becoming the next big thing 8 years too late i'm not saying they're underground, just that with sky-blue-sky they pushed it to the point they are at now. i'm not blaming the VW commercials, but ever since that they've been all over the radio. i just think they really tried to push sky blue sky and they succeeded.

i really have no idea what i want at this point haha. i was almost dead-set on a hollow-body and now i don't know. if you guys had to get an electric for under 500 what would you pick and why?

also the telecastor is too twangy for me. i want something with a little bit of a bite to it when i want it to

i mean not metal. neil young is loud, but bands like slipknot are LOUD...and bad of course. but neil young isn't always loud, but i suppose when he gets going he can be as loud as anyone

yeah i was afraid of that. i guess i have a pipe dream of playing one and having it sound like this http://youtube.com/watch?v=6v5E27Fp59c even though thats a really expensive gretsch haha. oh well, perhaps i need to go back to the drawing board

i'm thinking about getting a new electric and i don't have very much money. I'm kind of limited in the 500 and down range. i've been toying with the idea of getting a hollow-body. The reccomendations so far that i am considering are an epiphone dot or an epiphone es-175. i have a few questions though. I know these guitars sound good in rythym playing but how do they sound for lead? i'm not so much a jazz player and more of a turn up the gain and get some distortion going type of guy. Not too loud though, think wilco or neil young. so will one of those hold up with that type of style. and

if anyone has this show is there a chance of just posting a few mp3's. maybe just some standout songs from show?

anyone know where i can find this show? i don't think it's up anymore. thanks in advance!

i'm pretty sure the reasons against the archive are because it is impersonal. i know few people actually trade, but when you do trade it's human to human interaction, not clicking a button on a computer. i know BTs are the same thing, but i think that's why they are against the archive

:lol why even bother posting in this thread if you aren't a neil young fan? i mean there's no way you are because i don't know any neil young fan that doesn't like at least on of the three of his new albums greendale prairie wind living with war between those three you have a taste of everything

i love the album and it makes me soooo excited for the show in chicago. i think it has some really good songs on it and it will definitely be in rotation for a long time

yeah i'd have normally went to the show but i am away at school and couldn't make it. i'm not all that upset though, i'll pass on the rave. the combo of a poor venue, drunk people and raised prices made me stay in school. i wish milwaukee had some better smaller venues people can play besides that shit hole

he is a dinosaur, but hey, the dinosaurs will be extinct soon so there's not too much longer to see them live. not to mention i just got into neil young like 4 years ago, and since then all i've been able to see live of him is his farmaid set in 05, and CSNY last year. so this will be my first time really seeing him, so that's how i justify it haha

yeah the tickets are a little expensive, but realistically the places are small enough to where even if you're in the last row you still have a good view. i can't wait for the chicago show. neil young may not be where he was 25 years ago but he's still better than 95% of the bands/people playing today

the auditorium theatre is pretty awesome. summerfest wasn't the ideal stage but it was free and wilco so it's all good

alright, first off, that's bullshit and never should have been censored. secondly, fuck eddie vedder. i'm not a fan of bush but really those lyrics are complete shit. they should have been censored based on quality alone. whatever happened to subtlety in music. maybe if he was a better writer he could have found a better way to word that without sounding like a jackass. oh and i like pearl jam too, so i'm not complaining because i don't like them, i just think this is a joke

yeah both chicago shows were awesome. just out of curiosity, which show do you guys think was better? setlist wise here's what it comes down to when taking away the repeats night one Hell Is Chrome Muzzle Of Bees Company In My Back War On War Sunken Treasure Remember The Mountain Bed Via Chicago What Light In A Future Age California Stars night two Radio Cure Poor Places She's A Jar Side With The Seeds Forget The Flowers Ashes Of American Flags Passenger Side

greendale is fantastic. bandit is one of my favorite neil young songs. the comics should be interesting

wow, thank you so much! you are a kind gentleman

grateful dead studio albums get ripped on a lot. many people say they weren't a good studio band, but i love their studio work. they sound great live obviously, but their studio albums deserve more credit
