  1. First quote is taken out of context, lighten up it is only rock and roll
  2. This is a board to exchange ideas and it is just one's opinions there is no right and no wrong, so with that said you are a jerk
  3. Not a attitude, but a reply to a absurd post infering different solos by a guitarist on two songs in a set constitutes variety in a set. That must have taken great thought on the band's part to come up with that. What is next a different cadence by Glenn. Artists that are as talented as Wilco should challenge themselves night in and night out to switch things up more than they do. Why not try out new versions of a song we have heard many times and present it in a new light, ie what Springsteen has done many times (acoustic Born to Run) challenge the fans and not be so predictable, they have it
  4. No, for example Wilco does not and they are a dozen years in. This is not a slight towards Wilco but it is fact
  5. That is the most important part, the fun of seeing old friends, getting out of our everyday routine, and if the show blows us away then all the better. Have a good time!!!
  6. By nightly I mean night after night. Great to see they did last night at The Warsaw, hope it continues.
  7. Why do you hate the PJ comparison, in regards to changing their set and guessing what is coming next they blow away Wilco, which if you see a band more than twice on a tour or listen to a live recording is what you are looking for. Why would somebody listen to more than two shows from a Wilco tour when they would both be mostly so similar. Great bands and performers mix up their sets night after night adding new songs, playing different versions, playing a great cover. Sadly Wilco while good to see live does not go that extra step and sit down and put much thought into their set on a nightly
  8. Maybe a couple of spots, initial sales is what drove it, might get a few new converts.
  9. Although good live, they do need to vary their sets, this is what keeps them from being a great live band, ala PJ, Bruce.
  10. Very good article, in regards to similarities between The National and Wilco http://theedge.bostonherald.com/musicNews/...ticleid=1007464

    ELO

    Especially anything he produced for Tom Petty, and I am a big fan of TP
  12. Fun looking back at theae posts before both SBS and the Boxer were released. Both can be compared to the extent that they are more laid back than previous efforts by both bands. In my opnion the Boxer just does more for me, than SBS. I have played both many times since their release and Boxer is still in heavy rotation, less so for SBS.
  13. I am feeling that way about all of their releases right now. I cannot quite put my finger on why I like them so much, but they are so addicting.
  14. My opnion is SBS is ok, but I find myself playing the new one by The National alot more. This does not diminish the love I have for Wilco's music now or in the future. Just because we like a particular artist does not mean we have to like all of their releases. Which I feel people on this board do not get, and listen with blinders on.
  15. Wilco devotees will probably spend the next few weeks trying desperately to convince themselves that Sky Blue Sky is good music. But they'll be kidding themselves. For despite the fact that the album contains some potentially first rate material, none of the songs here rise above the uniformly dull surface. (Quoted from the post by m to the c) I FEEL THE SAME WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT JOB.
  16. What does being an American have to do with anything?
  17. Without Bruce's consent for your information. Reagan used it as a rally song, when the song was in fact an indictment of the U.S.A. and the way it treated the Vietnam vets when they came home. Get your facts straight. Bruce never has and never will sell himself out ala Wilco. In the 70's and early 80's before he has any dough he had many chances to do so but felt he did not want to compromise his music in such a way
  18. Bruce and Neil would never lower themselves or their music in this way. Shame on Wilco, for doing so.

    Tell me

    When it is all said and done SBS willl be regarded as just ordinary, which it is. Nothing that we have not heard before from lesser talents. Wilco's white album I do not think so, but I am confident that some day we might see it.

    Tell me

    You are a drunk, going to a Wilco show and getting "wasted" as you say is a waste of your time and I am sure the people around you would not appreciate you singing your ass off , it is not you we want to hear. Do me and true fans a favor and stay the hell home!!!!!!!!!!
  21. Lets hope this is not a portent of things to come
  22. His playing has even improved more since sobering up
  23. I hope it stays this way, let it remain our little secret from the masses
