Any Spoon song is fine with me, but whatever they play on XRT off GaGaGaGaGa all the time. As usual they have played that into the ground. LouieB

They played three songs together...something from AM and maybe a Neil Young song or something. It was a total surprise that Jeff showed up (although it was the one time he would of showed up for them since everyone was feeling generous toward Gary...who incidently is doing great.) LouieB

If there is a recording of this on the net I would be surprised . I believe the show was at Schubas but I could be wrong. LouieB

Not ignorance....yes he did, during the Gary Scheppers benefit series a couple years ago. Jeff played on three songs and someone somewhere does have a recording...(but NOT me... I was not there but i did hear it.) It was the first time they had played together since the AM sessions. LouieB

Honestly it doesn't matter. I think we need a Dylan and a Beatle to make an album before they both croak. LouieB

I was looking for your blog and can't find it. Can you post the link?? There were bound to be some assclowns at this show. I found some of the folks totally enibriated, but most harmless and most fans as cool as could be. i sure hope the video can capture what we saw. The stuff Brian was running down to us in the interviews was some very cool insider stuff, which he only touched on. you are right, he has all the inside info and was there from day one, playing in clubs with chicken truck while Jeff was in the Primatives. He also has some fun info on the abortive Michelle Shocked tour tha

I have been fed up with them for some time. Not to mention vacuous and sometimes slightly crazy young women too. Thanks. me either. that kiss should be for me. Since when did pitchfork go with a one out of 10 rating system. I thought they were whatever out of 100?? Guess as the dad of the group I just don't spend enough time on the website to have noticed this. LouieB

Personally I can't wait for the day when a whole lot fewer people think Wilco is cool..... LouieB

That's just silly, but somewhat funny. Not every ex-Wilco member is an asshole. One left voluntarily... LouieB

I can't wait for the real Pitchfork review... LouieB

Stop me if you have heard this before.....but I can't believe Dylan needed Robert Hunter to write the lyrics for this thing. They simply aren't that good. LouieB

Re-reading this post I don't even remember posting here...talk about getting old..... LouieB

Not a thing..just a short article...not sure why we are talking about Pitchfork talking about an album they aren't reviewing yet. LouieB

Actually I think that should be Nels, and Mikael Jorgensen with Pronto.... LouieB

There are worse things than looking like Rhett Miller or Glenn Kotche....I assume this is a rip on Glenn's long hair. LouieB

Me three...(sadly they never play THAT on XRT....) LouieB

Hopefully this is a joke (along some Give Me Shelter lines), but if not, no we didn't even hear about it. I have heard talk about weird stuff in the audience, some of which we did experience (some drunk falling on the sound board and a guy boucing into Carlos' tripod), but other than that aside from some VERY drunk patrons that I talked to, people were pretty well behaved. Look for a couple or three bald guys in the front row who look like refugees from the Blue Man Group. Some young woman wrote a nice blog entry somewhere about going to Bottle Rockets shows with her father. Both Rosie

i stopped at a Mexican grocery store and bought stuff to make for dinner. It is also my son's birthday. LouieB

mondrian's greatest hits.....volume 2 he just kept getting better and better. (or is this Frank Lloyd Wright...I donno...) LouieB

Fifty years? Pete Seeger was a mere 40 years old.... LouieB

It is hardly up to me....I was just a crew member. I hope I made that clear, I have nothing to do with putting this thing out. Go on the Bottle Rockets' message board on their website. Apparently the band actually gets on there and talks to the fans, including giving advice on guitars and other stuff. If you ask for a download with their DVD they might comply. Or contact Bob at Undertow, he is their manager and the one who arranged to do this. LouieB

Will this make it 14?? LouieB

I didn't talk about this before it happened, but figure I will give it a go now. Last Saturday I was lucky enough to be involved in a video shoot of a Bottle Rockets show at the High Dive in Champaign. John Boston of WhiskeyBender Productions (who has worked extensively with GloNo for awhile) was asked to produce a DVD of the show, which included interviews with the band members. I have been following the BoRox for 15 years and I jumped at the chance to help be part of this shoot. Most people here know a thing or two about the Bottle Rockets, a band that developed after Uncle Tupelo

Only when I am desperate and that is not very often. LouieB

Who is bitching? The movie is perfectly watchable and fun, just missed the mark at a few points. LouieB
