Hey everyone, here's an update to what I posted above. I changed the original tab a bit to make it better(?). I think it sounds more accurate anyway. I tired to do the "[ code ]" thing and it didn't work, so the format is messed up. If you cut and paste this into MS Word and then change the font to "Arial", the chords should be in the proper location. Enjoy!

If "Please Tell My Brothers" isn't on there (and it isn't) the entire list is invalid. And while I love "Misunderstood", I don't think it's in the top 10. "I'll Fight" isn't even in the top 10 of the album!

I agree with the "hearing it live" crowd. It really comes alive when you hear it live!! Now can someone tell me what the hell this song is about?!?!? Who are the spiders? What is kidsmoke?!!?

Does anyone know how Jeff plays the main riff in We've Been Had? The riff itself is pretty easy, but when he plays it, he also plays the G chord and the riff all at the same time. How do he do it?? And since I couldn't find the chords in here, I thought I'd post this. Most of it is stollen from the internets but I added a few transition chords during the verses that were not included in the versions that I found. I think it sounds better this way. The format is messed up and the chords don't align properly. I tired to use the [/code] thing to make it right, but it didn't work. The o

Unless they're playing with Bob Dylan, give me a Wilco only show! I like the 2 sets idea.....or maybe 3......6 or 8 opening songs, then 10 or 12 acoustic songs (full band or solo), then 12 more songs and a couple encores. That's not too much to ask, is it?

Nice!!! That didn't take long at all. Can't wait to hear it. Thanks for taping. I used to tape all the time and sometimes still do......it's a lot of work, so thanks again.

Odds Of Getting Tickets Outside Keyspan Tonight?
Bart replied to cracked & hooked's topic in Just A Fan
The Wolftrap show was sold out for weeks (months?) prior to the show and there were tickets available outside. Don't know if there were a lot or what they were going for, but I saw a couple of guys trying to get rid of extras. I'd give it a shot. Get there early. -
I'm wondering the same thing about the Wolftrap show. I know that one was taped but I haven't seen a torrent yet. They seem to be coming out relatively slowly in the age of instant gratification.
-
So why was the show called off? Was the band getting wet too? I figured they would be under cover. If it was called off just becasue the crowd was getting wet, that's a crime! I remember being at a Dead show in 1990 where it started raining very hard during the first set, but no biggie because the band was playing and we were all rocking out. It was a whole different story when the set ended and they took a break and we had to stand there for 40 minutes in the pouring rain. That wasn't so great, but once you were completely soaked to the bone and embraced the rain, it wasn't so bad. On

I got out in seconds, but I started to make my way out of the orchestra pit during I'm A Wheel and as soon as they said that's all the time they had, I sprinted to the car.

I was inside on the left side (facing the stage) about half way back and everyone around me and everyone I could see stood up for the entire show. I figured when they played "At Least That's What You Said" that everyone would sit down but they didn't. Yeah! As far as the comment goes about Jeff making so few comments......I thought he was as talkative as usual. At one point he said, "This song is the most requested song EVER on our website. 36 of you are going to be very happy" Then they played "How To Fight Loneliness". After it was over during the applause, he said, "That sounds like

Don't know if there are cabs waiting after the show, but I have seen buses there. I have no idea where they go though.....probably the Vienna Metro station. Try calling Wolf Trap or check the website Check this link: http://www.wolftrap.org/Home/Plan_Your_Visit/Access_by_Metro.aspx Please note that service is available for all summer performances except the International Children’s Festival at the Filene Center and Wolf Trap Opera Company performances at The Barns.

Can someone please explain the Tweedy "Living Room Shows"?

Thank you very much. I'd like that quote inscribed on my tombstone. PS - nice picture of La Malk! -

How about, "the roof of Abbey Road studios"? Isn't that where they played? And I think your above statement was the figurative definition of "nitpick". Actual nitpicking is whole other matter which is no fun. -

I said I was going to stop and here I am again. Sorry. I can't defend people being resentful if they could listen to the show but just not attend. Those people sound like dickheads. Jealous? Sure, but not resentful. I'm jealous of some of my neighbors who's wives don't have to work (mine does), and take 3 or 4 fantstic vacations a year (I don't), and drive cars made this decade (I don't), but I'm not resentful. I'm jealous of the people that attended any of these shows, I'm jealous of the people who get to see acoustic Tweedy shows, I'm jealous of the people who saw the Beatles p -

I hear you and I get it. I really do. Changing gears slightly: But sometimes artists don't make the best decisions regarding their art. I'm not saying that's the case here, but since your name is "Shakespeare In The Alley", think about the Bob Dylan catalog......he didn't release BLIND WILLIE MCTELL on the album he recorded it for (Infidels I think). We had to wait for the Bootleg Series to hear it. A lot of people think it's the best song he's written since Blonde on Blonde and he removed it from the album! Think about your favorite bands and the songs they didn't put on the original -

I think it's the "non-distribute" rule. I wasn't around in real time in the run up or following any of these shows, so I no nothing about any of these comments: But it's easy for me to see how fans in San Diego or Maine who live these shows vicariously through this board could get resentful. They hear all the build up, they hear about travel arrangments and fans meeting fans for the first time, they see an amazing set list, they read rave reviews, they hear people talking about the recordings and they start counting down the days until they'll be able to hear a copy. Then they get -

Well that's the problem with people. It's very, very hard to not share certain things....with like minded fans for instance. What do they say about secrets?......If you really want to keep a secret, don't tell ANYONE. And if you really don't want something circulated, don't allow it to be taped. I'm not arguing my case anymore, just commenting on human nature. -

Really?!?! Cue Johnny Carson voice: "I did not know that." Like I said, I'm not hip to the actual names behind the screen names. Apologies for bringing this up then. I respectfully disagree with the idea of certain shows being only accessable to certain people, but if them's the rules, them's the rules. -

I'm assuming you haven't heard these shows. -

Another quote: "What I am saying is that all that has happened in this thread is that someone from the Wilco camp stated, "No, the line you think is 'here' is actually here," and most of us said, "Oops!" and hopped back a few steps." Did that actually happen? I'm not familiar with screen names and who's who in here. Who's the person from the Wilco camp? If that happened, I get it. We should toe the line and play by the rules. I just didn't think/know that happened. I figured it was a bunch of Wilco fans carrying on. -

Quote 2: "Off the bat, Jeff said no to circulation of these shows, there was a miscommunication where people thought otherwise, and now it's resolved. They were never supposed to be available to everyone, so no one has been 'denied' anything. No one got anything taken away from them. They allow fans access to, what, 99.1% of Wilco's world, and you're complaining about 0.9% Really?" I'm unclear on who said what to whom. If you read this thread there are various points of view representing all sides of the arguement. To me it's all a bunch of internet chatter. Maybe one of the above state -

Forgive me for not knowing how to quote your message, but you wrote: "Wilco is flippin' generous. Really flippin' generous. Ridiculously, unnecessarily generous. Read that part again." Point 1: Dude, I agree that they are generous and cool and fan friendly and all that, but if they pulled all that generosity back, in reality not much would change. People would still tape shows, people would still trade shows. That's just reality in today's world. Recorders and mics are so small that you would have to strip search people to ensure they didn't bring those things into shows. Bob Dylan -

I think I'll respond in a couple of different posts because you seem to be attacking me on a couple different fronts.
