I figure that I'll do the whole pre-order thing from wilcoworld. However, that means, since I live way up here in the boonies, that I won't actually get the package until a couple weeks after it's been released. So, I figure I'll get a leak to tide me over until the real thing comes to my mailbox!

Thanks!

Have fun tonight! Let us know how it goes!

Thanks! If I can manage to get accepted and transfer to SFU, I'll be sure to get a lot more Wilco action than way out here!

The Hunter S. Thompson Appreciation Thread
blindgonzo replied to mountain bed's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
I first discovered Hunter's work when I was in grade 9, about 6 years ago. Up until that point, I had always had a dream of becoming a pediatrition. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was my first HST read, and it changed everything. I became infatuated with his work and slowly bought and read everything of his I could get my hands on. I started to see myself writing for a living. After I'm done with my poli sci degree, I'd like to go to journalism school. My ultimate dream is to create a magazine. Hunter gave me that dream, and I'll be forever greatfull -
Your guys' experience sounds amazing!! I only hope one day I can participate in one of these shows...and until then, I'll be living vicariously through all of you! Keep up the reports!!

I think that the wishes of the tapers should be respected. They are the ones who put the time and effort in this in order to share the amazing music that they capture. It would make sense that they want only the best quality recordings being circulated. I am no computer wizz, but I have managed to learn how to convert the flac into wav so I can listen to them on my ipod...its really not hard. I think its the least that everyone else can do...just leard a bit about torrents...not so hard!

I'm am soooo excited for the new album!! I'm so happy that shake it off is on there, as well as imposible germany...and all the others too! I do hope that You are my Face turns out to be LNGCA...it'd be interesting to hear a studio version of that one!

You know, I'm really hoping they do a cross Canada tour, you know, cause this is where they're from and all....
-
Thank you!!! Can't wait to listen to it!
-
hey, is there a way to download these all together, or does it have to be just track by track?
-
is it possible to get anyone to seed these over on etree, or dime? this sounds like some great disks and it would be much appreciated!!!

i have an acousitc guitar that my mom bought my dad for christmas one year before they got married, i think in 1977. he never learned how to play, and the guitar got neglected until about 2001 when i started taking some lessons. it's a gorgeous gibson epiphone, and i wouldn't part with it for anything...

bob dylan's Visions of Johanna as recorded on the 1966 bootleg from the Royal Albert Hall concert. no matter what's going on, i always gravitate back to this track. breathtaking...
