M Ward - "Excuse me.... Sir?"

Me - "huh?"

M Ward - "Could I have that (setlist) back? I need it"

Me - "I'll give it back for a photo with you" (as I hand him his setlist)

M Ward - "Um... I don't do photos, but I'll sign anything you want"

Me (as Matt struggles with the pen) "It's a push"

M Ward - "Oh.... Cool Sharpee"

Me - "Thanks"

Rising Red Lung - One Sunday Morning

Maxwell's Silver Hammer is horrible. Swap it with just about any Wilco tune, or Monkees tune for that mattter, and you have a better album.

In your opinion of silly imaginary possibilities, yes.

1. After many attempts by my buddy, Wilco finally took hold of me in 2006.

2. Sept 17, 2007 ACL taping for PBS.

Focus People...FOCUS

no kidding

I would disagree and think Abbey Road is fine the way it is.

Glad he's such a big fan though...

Wonder what Dale would think of a Wilco/Kinks mix. Village Green/Muswell Hillbillies era, of course!

"Put a bird on it!"

I love that show!

... and there are some true assholes,

yep

Waterloo Sunset, of course!

Just listened from NPR.

I liked it! Nothing like Evil Urges, although I liked that one too. To me, just another solid record from a very good band! Nice flow from one song to the next, never felt the urge to skip ahead.

Almost anything Adrian Belew!

I totally agree. Whether or not he would "facemelt" them remains to be seen, but I miss the days when Jeff did participate in the guitar battle.

Allow me to clarfy that Nels would be hard to outshine on a guitar solo and although if it were serious, Pat wouldn't stand a chance. In the spirit of fun, Jeff could step inbetween the two and rattle off an extended solo to end it all (just to show them whose signing the paychecks)! All in good fun! A few windmills and maybe even have an egg whisk on hand!! At least that's the way it works in my mind!!

One of these days, Jeff should bust into the shredfest during Hoodoo Voodoo and facemelt Nels and Pat!!

From the moment Wilco took the stage, everyone on the lower level stood up and remained that way the entire show. The venue was just the right size with plenty of room up front to gather around the "rock n roll petting zoo" (a small fenced area that I assumed was for equipment used for lectures). Jeff referred to it a couple of times.

Great crowd that seemed to be thrilled the campus was hosting such an event. Icing on the cake to chat with John and Pat and although no confirmation on whether or not the new record would be a double, it was stated that Solid Sound would be the first chance to hear some of it.

Can't wait for this!! I've seen Wico at the ACL taping, ACL festival and Tweedy LRS! This will be my first official Wilco concert and I couldn't be more excited!!!

Got a few pics sent to me last night and apparently Ben Kweller came out from his tour bus to visit with Tweedling and his daughter after the show!

Just one song really.....

It's A Dream - Neil Young

it's one that both reminds me of my brother who died in 1979 and my father who lost his battle with Alzheimer's 5 years ago. I cry every time I hear it.

I ended up getting "There's a Riot Going On" and "Maggot Brain" on vinyl

nice!!

The obvious question that everyone has avoided asking at this point is this: Will Yoko be responsible for the breakup of another band? Breaking up the Beatles, I can almost excuse her for that, but if she breaks up the most stable version of Wilco ever, well, I just might have to get upset about that.

I thought it was Paul that broke up The Beatles....... but I understand it's easier to just blame Yoko!

The Yes Album and Fragile are superb records that I have enjoyed for many years. They really pulled it all together for those two.

Sukiyaki Kyu Sakamoto

The lyrics tell the story of a man who looks up and whistles while he is walking so that his tears won't fall. The verses of the song describe his memories and feelings.
