...and Dylan should only play protest songs.
-
It was rad, the oldies sitting around us cringed, but warmed up to them after impossible germany.
-
And I'm unsure how critiquing their every move improves their artistic value.
-
I thought there was great value in championing Wilco to provide their craft to us, not for us to cop the consumer has rights plea and demand they change to fit us.

I read the first page of this shtuff, scrolled the rest and almost barfed. Go read a book or something. Looks like the cancer has returned to VC. Let's all talk shit about the band for awhile? Yeah, later. Keep doin' whatever the hell you want to do Wilco!
-
Surprised they didn't boot you. The last Wilco show at CRoads was a little more chill. We hung out, listened to soundcheck, no biggie. This year, they slammed the garage door w/ authority.
-
Now that everyone knows Nels overplays he can't catch a break to show his skills. He seemed a little left out of the show. The setlist didn't seem to flow very well but I give em props for mixing it up a bit. I think they sold a few too many tickets last night. Never been that crowded at a show there...including the last Wilco show there. Aside from that, it was good to see them again. Sonny Feeling and One by One were the highlights for me. Oh, and I'm a Wheel rocked.

Man, they ran those bands in and out pretty quick. We were there for the farm stuff, Bingham, Wilco, Neil, & Willie. Bingham begged to play another song, which would've made 4 songs and they yanked his ass. Shitty. Wilco was a bright spot. I was glad that shocked the old coots with BBN. Casino Queen rocked. Overall we had a good time. Long day.
-
Like, omg, my world is complete now. Can't wait. Wilco, Willie, & Bingham. Can't beat that.

Rock out homeboy. Happy burfday.
-
what an asshole
-
the 6'5 tall guys who decide they need to be front and center yeah, no shit, my friend is 6.7. He has to sit in the back. Yeah, ok. How about the question, "Are there too many people with a stick up their ass at Wilco shows?"
-
No clapping at solo shows. It hurts my ears when I listen to the bootlegs. Or maybe just do a golf clap.
-
What better way to say happy Bday than Wooderson and the doper. Happy bday gal.

in the comments following the review ...$10? pfft. I'd pay $60, I think tix are $80ish. Willie can play, Dylan is good inside in a small venue, dunno about outside. Saw him outside in 01 and that was good, 07 outside notsomuch. Sounds like Mellenhead is better now. I saw him in 97 and it was awful. He was taking smoke breaks during the songs. He sounded like shit.

Looks like some rabid Wilco fans have attempted to hijack the comments following the article. http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/07/13/dylan-mellencamp-nelson-mine-deep-catalogs-on-ballpark-tour/

Yeah probably. He's more like 6' when he teases and sprays his mane.
-
5' 7" is my guess. He has a large head. I look like a pencil next to him in an after the show groupie pic and I consider myself an average sized Americano.
-
or a duet on You & I

What a douche. ALTWYS live is the f'n bomb.

How Lance Armstrong prepares for the Tour de France
fatheadfred replied to magcat's topic in Just A Fan
I am cheering for him and he kicked some serious arse today. Mucho work on the front. He may seem like an asshole to the public but he knows how to motivate his teammates. His team won the TT, Astana has 5 riders in the top 10, and he is within 1 second from yellow. Contador has a shot if his head is working, Levi peaks too early, and Kloden is kind of the unknown quantity right now. He used to be a contender, could be a surprise. -
How Lance Armstrong prepares for the Tour de France

The old man may make it to yellow today. If anyone is interested here are your options to steal the live coverage. http://www.steephill.tv/tour-de-france/#live -
I think folks were milling around at the house around 6pm. The dude that lives there was supernice and gave us a ride to the frontgate. There were several 'new' Wilco fans at the pre and post party and we helped convert them even more by playing some bootlegs. What a show. From behind the sbd it looked like there was a fire down below from all the smoke rising.hahaha. Misunderstood was rad, as was Spiders.

Time to get on the bus, gus. Heading home to pick up wifey and head west. Cheers.
