Who was the engineer for Dark Side of the Moon?

Whatever song was playing when I got out of the car last. That generally lasts through mid-afternoon.

I concur. Iroquois again would be nice...

Vibes & prayers, Lynch. Vince

Great pics, ditty. Sounds (and looks) like you all had a great time. That was some setlist... Johnny, nice poster. That's perfect. Vince

Happy Birthday B2.... (And try not to take that "grown up" stuff too seriously)... TAS

This could have been handled in a PM.

"wrong thread" (welcome)

In the liner notes (CD booklet), on the last page, W(TA) says "Wilco are ...." (names; I don't recall the sequence) YHF says "Wilco is/was ..." (names) I smiled when I read the W(TA) version today. I, for one, am glad that the lineup is what it is, and that it's stable.

So, here's something I didn't realize about this whole thing until the last Cinci show. The pose is not just a gratuitous rock star attention grabber. At the end of the pose, as he hops back down to the ground, he crashes the cymbals for that first note and then launches into the rest of the song. He's just getting a little height for that first crash. Or at least that's what it looks like to me...

Wilco -- 2009.06.12, Aronoff Center, Cincinnati, OH

Good, but not terribly different / livelier / greater than the album version. Bull Black Nova, on the other hand, which is already great on the album, was amazingly incredible live. -

Dunder, sorry you missed the meetup. I would say that we had a lousy time to make you feel better, but that's not true. I saw Wilco on my birthday last year.. nice way to spend that. Wendy, thanks for herding us cats and setting that up. It was great meeting everyone, as always. The "VC 3rd row" had a grand time, and the energy level in the trampoline pit was good. Ditty, did you get a pic of us all? Johnny's time in the witness protection program has expired, so you can post that if you have it. The Community Service comments went down something like this : Old balding guy (n -

There's another thread with the review stuff, etc here. Ditty, you might want to copy yours over there. As for the venue, it was a really nice theater, and I thought it was fine for a rock show except for the curfew which apparently shortened the set list considerably. Not sure if that's a venue thing or a city thing, but that was the only sucky part. Jeff's vocals were pretty low in the mix, but I was in the pit so I figured it was just because of that. And no, I was not "Mr. Community Service". That was mighty funny, though. Here's a shot of his arm... proof that it's not me. -
If you can see this you're on the new server...
theashtraysays replied to solace's topic in Speakers Speaking In Code
I'm seeing that if I read the last post in a thread, then it no longer shows up in the "new content" view. It used to show up with a faded folder for the session I was in. Then after I got out of that session (ie, closed the browser for a while), and got back in, it would no longer show up unless there was something new. But now the thread disappears from the new content view, and so there are no threads with the faded folder icon in that view. I liked the old way better, if anyone is looking for feedback... Vince -
Thanks Wendy! We're in, 6:30 sounds good. Looking forward to meeting folks old and new. AND IT'S THIS FRIDAY ! ! ! Seems like forever ago since the presale. The band is back in the States, the board is up and running again, school's out, and all was right with the world... see you all soon. Vince

Yes. Yes, I am.

It's on the "latest news" section of the home page of CNN.com right now. Feels weird that something like this is what gets them on something like that. ed: link

Thoughts and prayers to friends and loved ones. All the thoughts and stories here show what great people you all are.

I predict a low turnout for the abstainers, but curious to see where we all are.

Well, using "malarkey" and "wee" will get you profiled for sure... no wonder you're getting nowhere. As for a replacement social security card, good luck with that. I had to do that for my daughter when we tried to get her driving permit, and it was a major hoop-jumping event even in person. I can't imaging doing that remote control far, far away.

Bits and pieces, pleasures and disappointments
theashtraysays replied to Ghost of Electricity's topic in Just A Fan
Yeah, I noticed that too. From the pre-leak interviews and live songs, I expected a lot more Nels-centric songs. But I like that the keyboard / piano stuff is a little more out front. The piano in You Never Know is great. -
In two years, this board will be called Bull Black Nova.

If Anyone Has Any Spare Vibes Lying Around...
theashtraysays replied to kidsmoke's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
That's really great news, Donna! You all take care out there. -
I think any band worth their salt needs to have at least one song named after a car.
