I love Wilco,,,, I hate Kansas....blaaahhhhhhhhhhh iccccccccccck

yeah, StL here we come

Oh, yeah, 'cool guy w/ 1 earring'...you CAN dance if you want to, you can leave your world behind...

Got to meet the dudes again. Awesome. Misunderstood and Theologians were spectacular.

Here is the info I got from The Pageant.

 

Will Call @ 6:00

 

Halo Bar @ 5:00

 

No Fan Club early entry, but early entry in Halo Bar. Once inside Halo Bar one can leave to go to Will Call at Box Office and get back into bar.

 

Once The Halo Bar is full, no one else is allowed in. I have seen lines start at The Halo around 3:00, so do what you will.

When do doors open for everyone? 7?

The Doors are gonna be there? cool. I thought it was outside?

Opening band, I believe, prolly starts at 8. I would assume you can get into bars aligning the street throughout the show? or what. I guess, I am asking, why would you lock in at 6, w/ no way to wet your whistle?

Rain, at this point, is 40% and after midnight.

That's awesome. I thought that this was one of the better songs that they reprised at the Residency shows. I'm glad they brought it back it again.

Totally agree. That song rulz

I sent an email to musictoday and they are shipping mine today (5-7)

nay a one here meself

I see where you're coming from, I'm from Austin, but I just don't think that southern Minnesota has the fan base to support a Wilco show. There is absolutely no reason that a band as good as Wilco shouldn't easily sell out every venue they play at. I scored 4 front row tickets for $50 a week before this show-- that's just wrong. Rochester is consistently ranked near the top in those "best cities to live" lists but as far as musical tastes of most residents go I don't think it's anywhere near the metro area. Listen to KROC for an hour and then try to argue that point

mmmm.....elitist?

I would imagine that Wilco likes to see some different folks and places. There is a different energy in a place that is virgin territory. Music for all, not just Austin. damn.

When I look at some of the venues they are playing, like Montana, Alaska, I would love to see them in a place like that. A different spirit is at all Wilco shows mainly due to the people they are playing for. That shit is special.

Wilco is too old to be 'big'...so are the Old 97's. Face it, the good bands aren't going to get 'big' because the majority of the U.S.'s music listeners are stoopid-see American Idol, Miley Cyrus, insert other 2 year phenom here.

I like the fact that they mentioned recording.

Yeah, no shit. That's what I thought the discussion would center on. Not the normal pist off presale crap. But, funny thing, as I was typing this I received the Wilco HQ email.

I heard their next album was going to be more like glam metal due the success of Brett Michaels' Rock of Love.

Can you say NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP and then wilco near a month later. wow life is good here in Lawrence, Kansas. Rock Chalk baby!!!

I hope there will be no rockchalk chants during the show, thank you. Kansas...the team you love to hate...at least I do, although I am kind of glad they won but have already forgotten. sorry.

This sux; I thought we were going to talk about wine.

I heard that Kenny Chesney is gonna headline the Lawrence show and Wilco is the opening act.

nels is addicted to noise; i am sure the wilco nels haters will love to watch this.

the hornblower Willie rox.

heck yeah

next best is Banyan w/ Perkins, Cline, Watt, and a hornblower.

I'll be there w/ 3 virgins and 3 sluts (in a Wilco sense).

I remembered 30 mins. into the presale, but still got tix. Maybe they released a lot or not much interest?

Maybe your outburst would have been a good teachable moment. So next time, bash em!

Yes.

'cept i hope the sorority girls don't blab throughout the show like in colombia. The recording reveals a bunch of blah blah blahing during Jesus, et al. slow songs.

I realize he can play all sorts of instruments but he seems to mope through the show until his guitar hero parts kick in. First time I saw them I thought he was chosen to attract the younger population of girlies.

I'll be taking orders for Missouri boat rides

such language...foul mouthed kansan;

we'll be crossin the border for the show, but will not be spending any time after the show. prolly even bring our own rations (corn whiskey) so as not to propel the union tax base.

love, josey wales

there is a park nearby that may see my drunk ass sleeping on a bench

Maybe rent the Ken Burns Jazz documentary to get an overall of the genre? Too many different styles, eras, personalities to say 'start here'.

there's video from the Thanksgiving shows?

I was thinking the cd was compiled from Thanksgiving. Maybe I'm wrong?

I thought that was rad. Any other sources for video from the Thanksgiving shows?

I gotta stop reading this shit.
