  1. We won't make it to the meet up as we won't get to Anastasia State Park until 6-6:30 and we need to set up the tent and eat before we bike to the venue but have one for me and Mrs. C. It is a beautiful venue and the rain is supposed to be over by showtime. Excited anyway but even more so due to our lucky break with front row seats! We are on the aisle at the Pat end. A Wilco show followed by spending the morning on the beach. Enjoy, all.
  2. I was not happy finding this out! Ha ha! I would take I Must Be High over Walken any time. What a great show. I know that our memories get distorted by the most recent information but we've been to almost 30 shows since 1996 and this was one of the best. The energy from the band and the crowd was excellent. As my wife said "you always feel so good at a Wilco show but damn!". The set list flowed so well and nary a low point (though it could have been better without the audible! Ha!). Wilco Me and, I think, smells like flowers, were right in front of us. It was nice meeting Wilco Me, albeit br
  3. I love that there are pit tickets on Stubhub for $19. Scalpers lose money. Tis justice.
  4. Ha ha! I took it to mean that he would so want them to not play Wilco (The album) that he would even cheer for Shake It Off. You are probably correct, though.
  5. For me, Andrew Sullivan has eloquently articulated why President Obama announcing his support of same-sex marriage matters, regardless of the politics. Perfect. "I do not know how orchestrated this was; and I do not know how calculated it is. What I know is that, absorbing the news, I was uncharacteristically at a loss for words for a while, didn't know what to write, and, like many Dish readers, there are tears in my eyes. "So let me simply say: I think of all the gay kids out there who now know they have their president on their side. I think of Maurice Sendak, who just died, whose decad
  6. Not trying to state the obvious but their website seems quite comprehensive. Under 'biography', there is info about the touring band. Just in case you haven't checked it out, you might find it helpful. http://thezombies.net/ I am like you, going would depend on the ticket price.
  7. Yes! 2 front row seats. We decided against more than the Tampa show due to finances but about 2 weeks ago, since Ticketmaster had about 1/3 or 1/4 of the venue still available, I checked Ebay and Stubhub just to see what their prices were. I almost bought a pair of pit 3 row C for $130 plus shipping but decided to keep checking several times a day in hopes that they might drop. Today they went down to $120 plus shipping and I almost pulled the trigger. I can't honestly say why, but I went to Ticketmaster and did a doubletake when several pair in the pit showed up on the seat map. I grabbed the
  8. I just bought 2 Pit 1 row A from Ticketmaster. Various pit rows still available. GO go go!!! As of 9:50 EST both pit 1 and 3 have pairs of seats in rows B-J
  9. I just bought 2 pit 1 row A from ticketmaster. Go now!! About 8 left from various pit rows!! WHOOT!!! Update: As of 9:48 EST rows B-J in both Pit 1 and 3 have pairs of seats. This venue is excellent. We saw APrairie Home Companion there a few years back. Camp in the lovely Anastasia State Park and walk/bike to the venue. It connects to the park. Then spend the morning on a beautiful beach. I am wiggin'!!
  10. I don't fully understand why we are arguing/debating/discussing, as I didn't intentionally try to bait you, but, what the hell. The 11 year old Justin Beiber fan's list would have equal merit as mine. Both of our lists would be made based on our own preferences and experiences. It would be foolish for the New York Times to hire a KFC addict as a food critic since, I assume, the vast majority of NYT reader's don't eat a large amount of chain fast food but rather eat at independent restaurants. A KFC lover would likely be a fine choice to be food critic for some "Joe The Plumber"-esque blog or,
  11. Thanks for his bio but as I don't care about the list, it doesn't really matter to me but I did enjoy his writing style. I, too, though I don't know him, doubt that he is a junkie. I just laughed at the comment.
  12. Are you implying that he is circumcised in a unique manner?
  13. Yeah. I found the inference that the list compiler is a heroin addict humorous. I have no opinion on the list itself. Beyond a cursory glance, I couldn't give 2 hoots in Hell about who is or isn't on a list of 100 Greatest Guitarists. As far as a good list, I suppose that it is as good as any other. Being someone's opinion, best of lists are of equal quality.
  14. Wikipedia lists Skrillex's occupations thusly: Occupations Musician, DJ, music producer, guitarist So does this mean that he has held a guitar in his life?
  15. Most of the comments at Spin were unimpressive but a few made me laugh. This was my favorite: Andrew Creech1 hour ago This is the worst list of guitarists I have ever read. Sonic Youth? Stop booting the horse dude. Put the needle down.
  16. Blues Brothers aside, you really don't know your feelings toward non-Illinois Nazis? I preferred asking the question to the pop-culture reference.
  17. What are your feelings toward non-Illinois Nazis?
  18. I am happy that I spend my time differently than some people.
  19. I must admit that when I was about 8, even though I was in gifted, I never used or thought of the phrase "pompous ass". Much respect to you.
  20. Well I'll be damned! Who would of thought that Boon worked for Daddy.

  22. Yes, except he spells them "piece" and "libertine".
