Wilco

The Almond Brothers - 1990's era.. I know not as good as the original line-up, but still incredible

The Wailers

The Eagles

Fugazi

White Stripes - Not a huge fan, but boy do they put on a hell of a show

Pixies

That pretty much sums up the best shows I've been to.

The performance was excellent.. I can tell the months of touring has really polished their chops.. They were great when I saw them back in June, but they sounded just amazing on ACL..

Patiently waiting for someone to post a video of the performance... DVD iso would be ideal...

I dug Dookie a lot when I was thirteen and then I bought Insomniac but I don't think I listened to that one much. My little brother and I would break out spoons, pots and pans and have "drum" sessions watching the "Basket Case" video on VHS. Good times.

That brings back memories.. I used to do something similar with my friend when I was 14.. I would play my dads guitar and he would play a cheap starter drum set to that video.. Good times indeed...

Hey, at least Hillary tried to do something about health care. She may even try again.

I know, and if she does, it will be a system that will get abused even more than our current system does .. Abused by illegal immigrants and other people that have babies just to get more money from the government.. "free health care for unfortunate people.. blah blah blah...." We don't need more free health care, we need more people getting off their asses and getting jobs that provide good private health care..

My mother works at a free medical clinic and she says the majority of her patients are illegal immigrants.. wtf.. why should I have to pay for their health care??

I'm not rich either, but I have worked hard to be able to get a job with a good company that provides good benefits.. The goverment didn't give me that..

...because she has a large lead in the polls?

True, but she also has a pretty large disapproval rating. But it's too early to tell really.. Even though I would never vote for her, I've already accepted the fact that she very well could be the next president of the United States.. As scary as that would be.. If she does get elected, I'll just have to drink more to help ease the pain..

You're unclear in your ranting.

Well, I hope I've cleared it up now.

I don't think W is bad about not being honest at all.

Sorry.. Edited post.. "If we think" was a bad choice of words..

Hillary... If a lot of people think W is bad about not being honest with the American people, Hillary is the best liar in the world.. Like Edward Klein said "She has this unbelievable ability to be a liar. She is soulless." She has had an agenda her whole life.. She met Bill and saw him as her ticket to success.. She doesn't care about America, she just wants power..

Dennis Kucinich - Are you kidding me.. He's the one that met with the terrorist murderer President Bashar Assad in Syria and badmouthed our country.. He even went on Syrian TV to bash Bush on the "illegal occupation" in iraq.. Amazing.. Umm.. isn't that treason??

Jon Edwards.. He's racist... And just generally, a dumbass

I have nothing against Green Day at all... Very influential rock band... I mean, yeah, I guess they did change some on the latest record.. The music did get a little more mature, but it's still that poppy power punk sound that I guess I outgrew.. So in other words, Greenday got better, but the genra stayed the same.. But your right PopTodd, it probably does have a lot to do with Billy Joe's voice..

When I was a teen, I LOVED Greenday.. But when they came out with their new record, nothing had changed about them.. They were still that cheesy "teenie bopper pop rock".. So I guess I outgrew them.. Kind of makes me feel old..

Ryan doesn't have the same magic in his music that Wilco does.. Don't get me wrong, Ryan is a brilliant artist to say the least, but I mean.. It's Wilco....

ProCo Rat Pedal.. In my opinion, the best distortion pedal ever made...

Maybe it's just me, and I haven't seen this film in several years, but I still get the creeps when I think about Jacob's Ladder.

 

I'm not even sure that one was supposed to be all that scary, but it sure worked for me.

Awesome, freaky movie.. I remember I figured out the ending halfway through the movie though and that kind of spoiled it, but it still scared the crap out of me.

Has to be poor ticket sales.. I've been a performing musician for 10+ years and canceling a show is absolutely forbidden in the Rock N Roll hand book... If you must cancel, it can only be because of a death in the family, or a key member becomes ill to the point where they cannot sing or play their instrument.. And even then, shows can still be played because I once saw a band (shall remain unamed) that the singer had strep throat, so the band invited people from the crowd to sing.. Some were actually pretty good, but most completely buchered the songs.. lol

So anyway, it had to have been ticket sales.. I don't think anyone has lost a family member and the band seems to be healthy if they can play the shows in Spain.

It's just sad that Ann Coulter has to go and make conservatives look bad just how Michael Moore has to make liberals look bad...

At my office, a co-worker and I stayed after one day and completely switched two women's offices.. Everything.. Their furniture, computers, phone, pictures... Right down to the pens and paper on their desks.. Funny stuff I tell you..... We're always screwing around playing pranks, but that was probably the best one to date..

I agree that you could save up a little more and get a descent one.. I have owned a cheapy hollow body like that before and I'm sure it's made of that cheap, crumbly, partical wood stuff like most dirt cheap hollow bodies are.. And yes, it will feedback to the point where it's practicaly un-playable.. Of course I don't know these things for sure, but for a guitar that cheap, I'm probably right..

Man.. You guys that got to go to this are some lucky SOB's! Why can't they have these festivals in the deep south where Bluegrass was born!?! Oh wait, they do all the time.. Just not with Jeff Tweedy!!

Band of Horses

Checked out some samples.. Sound very cool. Any particular album you recommend for a start?

Cave In

Hum

Fiveway Friday

My Morning Jacket

i thought he may have cleaned up his hissy-fits on this tour, but apparently not...

It's too bad that a lot of musicians are flakes.. I'm a musician and I'm a total flake..

The members of Wilco are really cool and down to earth though.. So I hear..

I've been pretty much everywhere in the US.. Lived in LA, Boston, NY.. Been to every major city, seen niagra falls, the grand canyon, the rockies, But have still never gone over seas.. I'd love to drink real beer in Europe.. Maybe someday..

Can someone PM me the One True Vine studio recording?

Well, I thought I had it but I must have accidently deleted it.. Sorry Ol Prospector..

Maybe someone could kindly hook me up too...

I mean, songs that Wilco have recorded in the studio for that disc but aren't on the CD.

 

I have this:

- One true vine

- Let's not get carried away

- Is that the thanks I get?

 

Is there any others?

Those are the only ones I know of including "Lets Fight".. But I didn't know they were recorded in the studio! I have the "One True Vine" studio recording and of course "Thanks I get", but are the other ones available anywhere too???

Yeah, I have only had a couple bands in my life affect me like Wilco does.. And the other bands still don't even come close..

I listen to A LOT of different music... But to me there's Wilco, and then there's everyone else..
