    New Wilco on the radio

    in Just A Fan

    Posted

    I hear Wilco EVERYWHERE! This weekend I was eating breakfast at a new cafe near my house and California Stars was booming through. One time I was in the middle of the park reading a book under a tree, no one was near me and I didn't have an iPod yet somehow Forget The Flowers seemed to be filtering through the forest nearby. It was weird, but awesome.

    I heard Pick Up the Change this morning in JC Penney. It was good times. I'd like it a lot if they'd play something from AGIB. I think the drone would go well with the spring-green Worthington blouses and the polyester-blend slacks.

    I actually listened to Sky Blue Sky for the first time with a big ol' hangover and it worked out rather well. I missed the first Wilcoworld stream because I had the chance to hang out with old friends and get sloshed (something I rarely do anymore.) So, I downloaded it the next morning and shook it off to "Shake It Off!"

    no - mermaid avenues are missing from those thumbnails :thumbup

    Yeah, I was going to include those because Wilcoworld includes them but there's a limit to how many photos the board will let you post at once and I already had to photoshop to cram in a list of six. Anyhow, I think we can all agree that of these six, the only way to see things is...

    I use my cell phone to take pictures? Is it that big of a deal?

     

    Jesus, I feel like an asshole now.

    That's me too. I've only taken pictures with it but not in any kind of annoying, jockeying for position, shoving my phone in peoples faces kind of way. Reading that on Wilcoworld made me feel all guilty and ashamed.

    just kidding, haven't decided yet. flick's got me thinking pork chops on the grill.

     

    I bought a new toaster this week and was horrified to find that the little manual that comes with it is very much against using the appliance to cook Pop-tarts! :o

    I eat bagels and toast and such but my first thought when my old toaster died was, "Oh my! I've got to get another one right away so I can have my Poptarts!" Needless to say, this new toaster is going to cook my pop-tarts and she'll damn well like it!!!! :yes

    wilco does allow non-flash still photography wherever it does not conflict with venue or other restrictions beyond our control. please be considerate of others. we do not allow video taping, and ask that you refrain from using your cell phones during concerts.

    Has it always said that part? I don't remember noticing it before.

    While driving in my car this morning and listening to the Wilco on my way to play tennis, I was thinking..."WWJD. What would Jeff do?!" Though I never could figure out what exactly Jeff would do, I have learned something from the experience. I have learned that WWGD isn't quiet the same as WWJD, so I guess Jeff does have that going for him?

    Chuck Close version of me...by a bunch of 10 year olds.

     

    I used to work at a summer camp (the same one Bob Zimmerman went to!) and I was really in with the girls who ran the art department. They always told me I had a big head! Anyways, they took a polaroid of me, made a grid of my face and then gave each of their 5th graders a square about 1 inch X 1 inch. The kids had no idea what they were making, but were instructed to only use fingerprints of black and white paint to enlarge their mini-square onto a larger one. The art teachers assembled the squares and revealed this in the dining room!
