Thoughts? I've been looking forward to it, pretty disappointed so far. The main characters seem tired or depressed, and it's very Nancy-centric. Not much happening with the boys, and the new peripheral characters/storylines don't look like they'll be significant. (except maybe Counsellor Ed) I miss Esteban, and Guillermo. I'm even starting to miss Celia.

I know, but who's really going to write in complaining that The Band were "a Canadian group"? They never were. They were an American band through and through.

Velvets, Grateful Dead and CCR should all be MUCH higher up the list. Where's Hendrix, Chuck Berry, The Band, CSN, The Pretenders, Devo, Crazy Horse?

If you haven't heard the 2-disc Around The Well, it's a terrific release. Some amazing covers on that one as well. Now I have to go check out the Daytrotter thing.

Put me in the same camp. The new record sounds good but...I loved Around The Well, even though many of the songs were barely above a whisper they perfectly showcased what Sam and Sara do best. Just put some headphones on and be transported.

John Doe must have more Soul in his voice than any white singer since Van Morrison.

About a million threads on this, too. For more recent-ish ones - from I'm Not There - my favorites are the John Doe covers of St.Augustine and Pressing On. Both freakin'fantabulous.

Ummm.....disturbing. Still, I guess anything that brings black America closer to the Wilco fold can't be a bad thing. The lack of diversity at N.American Wilco shows is always a weirdout.

What auctioneer said. Also, please ban those fucking vuvuzelos.

A couple of ugly goals, but that was a pretty exciting Game 1. This is going to be a great series. Pronger actually didn't look great last night, he missed a few passes on the power play and seemed a bit sluggish?

Congrats to the mighty Blackhawks, it's hard to see anyone beating them this year!

Diggin' this....

Funny video, but I only saw one (maybe two) obvious dives in that clip. I think Crosby's proving to be at least as rugged as Gretzky or Lemieux were, and sometimes he gets targeted almost as much as Lindros used to be.

I'll have to try and download Game 7 and see this Philly miracle with my own eyes. Unbefuckinglievable.

Boston and Montreal played in the 1st or 2nd round two years ago, it was a very good series and went to 7 games...game 6 was one of the best hockey games I've ever seen.* Personnel has turned over since then, but the fans in both cities are hardcore. * that was the series where Ron Maclean announced Game 7 with "Impossible Boston, Unlikely Montreal!" He's a big Wilco fan.

I'm as stunned as anyone. I think we really could be looking at a MTL-CHI cup final.

Happy to see Chicago put the Canucks away too. I like Vancouver, but the Hawks are a better team, and more fun to watch. (Van has the Sedins, who make lousy defences look really lousy....it just gets old after awhile) And we're one step closer to a CHI-MTL final...Oh how sweet that would be, sorry but if that happens I'll be cheering for the Habs all the way.

Holy fuck, some of the comments here are so shallow and thoughtless. OB, in my opinion you should have dealt with this differently. Family shit is always a strain on a girlfriend. You should not have let your mom treat her like that. You blew it, and she may have lost some of her trust in you, especially since she's dealing with a lot of other things now as well. Plus, who could blame her for not wanting to spend a weekend with them after that? You need to think about what happened from your girlfriend's pov....what your mom did, how you handled it, and why you seem a bit oblivious to her fe

Nice performance indeed. I like the song, and it works fine in an intimate setting like this...just not in a big venue with an overkill sound system.

Jeff Garlin too?? Wow that is insane. Almost makes me wanna go to Shull. Thanks Sue for all the charity work you're doing!

Re: fans paying their dues, this is the last time any Original 6 teams won the Stanley Cup- Red Wings '08 Rangers '94 Canadiens '93 Bruins '72 Maple Leafs '67 Black Hawks '61

from Wikipedia; The album was named after a series of letters in the phonetic alphabet that Tweedy had heard on the Irdial box set The Conet Project: Recordings of Shortwave Numbers Stations. On the fourth track of the album Phonetic Alphabet - Nato (help·info), a woman repeats the words "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" numerous times; a clip from this track was placed in the Yankee Hotel Foxtrot song "Poor Places". Irdial sued Wilco for copyright infringement, and a settlement was reached out of court.

It's unanimous!
