  1. "Why do the best things always disappear?" indeed.
  2. That was a terrific show in a really cool theater. I'd never been to the Lincoln before (really had never heard of it before). The whole setting was great. With the exception of the cleaning crew noise which was absurd, that was by far the quietest/most respectful crowd I've been to in many, manyyears. I found myself whispering to my seatmate *between* songs during the Autumn Defense set so as to not make too much noise!
  3. I'm certainly no fan of TM but I don't see how a fast sell out is their fault...more like demand far in excess of supply.
  4. Got in right at 10am and got 4 at the back of first balcony....That went very quickly.
  5. Hey now, I'm in Row T 12 & 13. for Wolf Trap. I was in right at 10am too. I'll be the one who is kicking your seat before the show and my wife will be the one who spills a beer on you....
  6. I wasn't saying keep them intact at all. I agree that the pensions and labor agreements are a huge part of the problem and need to be scaled way back or eliminated which would be possible in bankruptcy. I was trying to say (not very clearly) that the Feds should be prepared to provide some level of safety net for the folks displaced in the inevitable upheaval that the bankruptcies will create. That safety net already exists in unemployment benefits, etc which can and probably should be extended in this situation.
  7. Should the Feds give the big 3 an injection of cash in the form of loans? No, that's just throwing good money after bad and postponing the inevitable restructuring needed. Should the Feds allow the Big 3 to cease to exist? No, the implications across the entire economy would be far ranging and pretty nasty in any economic climate; in today's economic climate it could be devastating. Should the Feds put stringent conditions on the automakers to force them to change course? No, the odds are low that some federal oversight board can accomplish what lots of pretty smart executives have been una

    wtf!!!!!!!!

    wow...I was hitting update repeatedly and thought I got thru as soon as it opened up. I guess not
  9. I recently had a dream that the band was in my house with Iggy Pop. We were all kinda standing around my piano having a discussion about the various Wilco songs that had real meaning to me and I turned to Iggy to include him in the conversation but couldn't think of a single song from his catalog to remark upon. It was quite embarassing...
