Hey, I heard Impossible Germany at Publix a few days ago also I was excited. They usually have pretty good music there which is rather odd I think...

I play it capo 5...and I think Jeff does too. Althouhg for the full band recently I think hes been doing capo 7. Anyway you can play it capo 2 if thats what key you like to sing in, doesn't really matter the dynamic of the song is the same: verse goes D A G, IIRC. It is finger-picked, its not that difficult. The D chord features a pull-off on the high e string to make the riff. The bridge (I guess?) towards the end goes Am, C, G, D...again from memory. Jeff adds a good bit of fanciness to these chords that you might be able to figure out... hint: hold the chord shape and look for pulloffs

Capo 5 G -> F -> Em -> C This is the intro progression. The way he plays it on the Sunken Treasure DVD is pretty simple, you can do it with a pick. The sound is achieved by picking through the chords and then doing a pull-off on the B string. For example, play a G like this: e-3--- B-3----3p0 G-0--- D-0--0 A-2--2 E-3--3 then switch to a non-barre F and do the same thing: e x B 1---1p0 G 2-- D 3-- A 3-- E x then play a normal Em, there is no string fretted on the B string so you can't do the pull-off here. Finally move to C and do the pulloff again, eg. e 0 B 1--1p0

The posters from Night 2 (Saturday) that we got all said "2007" and somebody had put white out over the 7 so it said 2008. Very shitty that they charged $25 for misprinted posters.

More like the moon is one of my favorite Wilco songs too. Its extremely pretty, great lyrics, beautiful classical guitar solo. I had my fingers crossed that they'd pull it out at the Residency but I was happy to see Magazine Called Sunset and Bob Dylans 49th Beard anyway.

I liked the banter about losing to the Foo Fighters at the grammys. He said his son calls them the poo fighters. This was on Friday I believe..

Anyone know why tapers.org won't work for me? Host resolves and then hangs before my FTP client throws a "no route to host" error. I really want this show dammit :'(

for some reason I can't ftp into tapers.org... any kind soul want to let me borrow their dimeadozen login/password as they arent taking new users. pm

Can't speak for the one in Chicago, but there is a Fogo De Chao in Atlanta run by the same people. Its fantastic but you have to be a meat lover obviously. And yes, it is expensive, so make it a special occasion and go hungry (light lunch). I think for dinner its $50/person to eat or something.

http://bemydemon.org/ As far as I can tell this site lists not only all of the Wilco studio recordings but a lot of songs that they recorded but didn't make it onto albums, complete with lyrics. It also has a list of releases from other bands that included Wilco members etc. Hard to beat.

Can somebody explain to me what the hell Jeff is wearing in that video?

I always play it like this: 0-1-2-0 walk on the A string, followed by an A major chord. So the progression I use for the intro is: A major -> B 7th -> E major -> C# minor -> C major -> E major The B major 7th can be played a variety of ways, but the easiest fingering for this progression is x21202 C#minor is x02120

I've been trying to figure it out, seems simple enough but the one on gumbopages is wrong I'm pretty sure about that.

Correction to the above: G e ------------------------------ B -------3---------------------- G 3h4-----4------------2------ D -----5---- 5--3h4------4---- A --------------------5------5- E ------------------------------

Here is a very rough tab of the intro that should get you on your way... G C E Am D C G e -----------------------------------------------------------------------2-2---2--------2 B -------3------------------------1----------------0------1--------1-----3-3--------1---2 G 3h4---------------2-------------0--------0h1-0h1--------2----0h2-------2-2--------0---0 D -----5-----3h4-------------0h2-----------2---2----------2-------------------------2---0 A ----------------5-------3----------------2---2------------------------------------3---2 E -------------------------------

Sounds like the songs might be in the same key but other than that they're really not that similar.

The G major ionian mode seems to be what the solo was written in. Could be wrong, I know very little about theory.

So like... E A D G B e x-0-2-2-3-0 Also can you recommend a scale to improvise over the solo parts that you haven't tabbed? I know the key is G major but the pentatonic scale I've been using is a little boring. Maybe harmonic major or somethin?

How do you play Amsus4? I only know Amajsus4. Thanks in advance.

Great show despite the rain. Unfortunately the people in front of us insisted on using umbrellas instead of ponchos or rain jackets and despite several people asking them to lower the umbrellas, my view was blocked for a lot of the show Nels seemed to be struggling a little bit during the Impossible Germany solo, he kept having to wipe his hands off on his shirt but he still pulled it together after the beginning and continued to rock out for the remainder of the show. I've now seen Wilco against two elements of mother nature - the relentless heat beating down on us at Bonnaroo, and the

Hey man most of the crowd had been camping in 95 degree heat since Thursday night or earlier. Give us a break! I was exhausted by the time Wilco came on around 5:30pm and the sun was still beating down hard. They put on one of the best shows at Bonnaroo besides Tool I agree. Unfortunately The Police were a major disappointment

The solo relative to Capo 5, makes it a little easier for some: g------------------------------------------0-------4---2h4p2----2----------------------------------------------4---2---4----2----4 d--------------4--------4h5p4-2------4----------------------5----5--2h4-2h4-0----------------0---------------5---5----5----5----5-- a0h2-----0-2----------------------------------------------------------------------------0/2-------2/0-0------------------- e------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- g ---------------------

Which chords do you need fingerings to? The tab is relative to capo position 5. Standard chords like Bm and A major are fingered the same way you would as if there was no capo. There are somewhat tricky: Most of the weird chords are essentially bassline walks: Bb { 0 1 3 3 3 1 } Bb/A { x 0 0 3 3 1 } Gm7 { 3 5 3 3 3 x } Gm7/F { 1 x 3 3 3 x } [Am]E[Em/G]v
