  1. There was a discussion going on on this thread as well Speed Racer and you basically just told me to "stop bitchin"
  2. Was removing the complete singles collection from the owl a legal issue? Was it a trade off for having a sanctioned Wilco archive?
  3. Excuses and opinions are like anal orifices....
  4. Yeah that got me in the BT thread. I love those songs.
  5. What? No f*uckin way. Whoops, sorry that should be "No f*ckin way".
  6. Hell no. By the way, I still need that march 5th Tweedy show you were raving about in the live show thread Froggie.
  7. Ha ha. That's what I thought it looked like.
  8. Sly fox indeed. I'm with you on the middle one. Oh and BT on every other day is my favorite album. I wouldn't change shiat.
  9. I guess I'll have to weigh in with my opinion although as of late I've been getting some shit from people on this forum. After careful consideration I think my list will have to be AM BT ST YHF AGIB SBS W (TA) ( it's last on my list because it's not out yet)
  10. Oh hell yeah. Sylar is now Nathan who thinks he's Nathan. Peter has Sylar's powers and Matt Parkman is in on all of it. Claire has no idea and neither does Peter. Angela and Claire's dad are masterminding the whole thing and Hiro's power is taking it's toll. Man, this shit is off the hook. Oh yeah, and Wilco's new album. Something.
  11. Colbert, Colbert, Colbert will love ya baby.
  12. I'm sure I'll like this new album because I've liked every project Jeff has been involved in, some more than others, but to me none of them suck. I just have the same reservations about Wilco as I do about myself. I wrote much better songs when I was younger, less satisfied with life and more driven to shake things up and challenge people's preconceptions. I too like the fact that every Wilco album has been different from the one before. I just think the last album happened to be the most tame. Now that could be because of the addition of an accomplished jazz guitarist, or because Jeff is in a
  13. Just for the record I never said I didn't like SBS. I just think Wilco made engaging albums before extended Nels solos came along. You don't need to be a guitar god to create an interesting solo. Sometimes proficiency=sterility. That's why I'm not a Satriani fan.
  14. I remember a few albums where Wilco created very entertaing songs without having to fall back on killer guitar solos to make them interesting. Like maybe the first five (with a few glorious exceptions).
  15. My band turned down an opening spot for Creed back when they first came out. We played our guitarist's sister's prom fund raiser instead. Talk about dodging a bullet.
  16. All right. I like Nels in the band. I had to get used to him and there are other incarnations of the band that I like just as well, but I like him. With that said, I am tired of reading these reviews that say he's the best part of the band. He's not the best part. This band was great before him and it will be great after him. If Nels was the best part then Jeff would be in his band not the other way around. Wilco's best albums imo were made when Nels was nowhere around. No hate on Nels I just hate to hear Jeff being marginalized.
  17. I was under the impression that it was a live concert film. At least that's how it was advertised on the Wilco website. It even reads "Wilco live" on the cover of the DVD so I wasn't expecting an Oscar caliber documentary on the Walmartization of America or an in depth story on the disappearance of small town life or even much insight into a rock band's creative process. I was expecting to see live concert footage and this film delivers that in spades. I am grateful to Wilco for allowing this film to be made. It captures a great american band in it's prime.
  18. Okay, had a few beers so I'm shootin' from the hip. Got the DVD Thursday but just watched it tonight so my wife and I could watch it together. She's a bigger Wilco fan than I am(I'm a big one)just not masochistic enough to subject herself to a Wilco forum. I swear I had a grin a mile wide the whole time I was watching it. It felt like I was at a concert with no beer lines. Man what a great representation of the miracle that is music. Someone stated earlier that it was light? Considering the fact that we got all of the audio from this DVD and a bonus full concert? My God, what wealth. My wife a
