  1. Hi, I'm a new registrant -- great site you have here. Drove from Akron to Pittsburgh (yet again) to see Wilco. Of the four times, this was definitely the best show. (Remember Point Park, when "Ghost" came out? It was one of the first shows with this lineup, and it's amazing how they've developed since then.) The sound on the lower level at Carnegie was outstanding.

     

    I had never recorded a show before, but I entered the fray with a new digital recorder last night. I tried to familiarize myself with the unit's operation before heading to PA. When showtime began (in the dark), I hit record, and thought we were rolling. I was supposed to hit it twice....DOH! Long story short, I got everything from Passenger Side until the end. Sounds good too! I opted to record as WAV, to capture the fullest range of freqencies, and I'll convert to mp3. My question: should I bother uploading half of a show?

     

    Finally, thanks, Pittsburgh, for being so Wilco-friendly. Although it makes for a long day and night, I always enjoy visiting the city to see the best rock show in the biz.

     

     

    I was just wondering how the recording was going and if you needed any help getting it posted, I am willing to help.

  2. I'm still waiting for all those songs that they recorded in the SBS sessions that John said would be released within the year of SBS's release.

    I'm pretty sure they were released. It included, "Let's Not Get Carried Away" that came with the iTunes download of the album, "The Thanks I Get" was posted on Wilco's Myspace page, some special editions came with "One True Vine" and a live version of "Theologians" and the tour edition came with the tracks "The Thanks I Get," "Let's Not Get Carried Away," "One True Vine," "Impossible Germany Live," and "Hate It Here Live" All of which we available to download from the web when you put your SBS CD into your computer.

  3. I will say this, of all the places I have been, I have ran into more Wilco fans in Rochester than any other place. But I did not move to Rochester till after Sky Blue Sky had been out for a while and wasnt sure if that album was making them a little more widely known and thats why I was meeting more people who knew them.

  4. I have been/lived all over the north east US the past 3 years, Erie PA, State College PA (Penn State), Lowell MA, Boston MA, New London CT, Oswego NY, and now Rochester NY, and have found no more than 10 people who know of Wilco. Some of the people don't know or listen to anything that isn't played on MTV, but I can't see how that many people don't know of a band as great as Wilco, especially a band that has been on so many popular talk shows, has two documentaries that are played on TV multiple times a year, and is talked about in every other issue of Rolling Stone.

     

    I'm just wondering if anyone else has seen this where they are from or is it just around here. I'm kind of curious, as this may be the reason Wilco hasn't played around here before (finally i wont have to drive 6 hours to see them)

  5. I was just checking out the DVD project and thought I'd take a look around to see if I could find some good videos of wilco. I liked these two,

     

     

    i just thought I'd see what your favorite wilco clips were.
