  1. I'm with Maggie. Western PA (Pittsburgh) and I was also waiting for my own personal copy before listening to the album. I know what I'm doing this evening.

    Diversity

    Yes, it's definitely one of my favorite shows on right now.

    Diversity

    Who else just saw Queen Latifa on '30 Rock'. Queen Latifa complaining that NBC is not diverse, "NBC is about as diverse as a Wilco concert".
  4. Great show. I was on the 1st balcony not far from 'pitt hookah' the thread starter. A couple d-bags were present yelling inappropriate things at inappropriate times. "Shawn thinks you're gay" exclaimed one obviously drug addled degenerate (who went on to clap loudly and randomly throughout the night). I'm a proud Pittsburgh native and he is not representative of our overall crowd for you non-locals that drove in for the show. This is the first show I've caught on this tour (7th overall) and it was the best so far I think. Stage wise I loved the tublar computer controlled incandescent ligh
  5. I guess I could be considered a "lurker" since I never post on this forum (maybe I just have nothing to say). Regardless I had to reply to this post though. I spent a good half hour reading everything I could about this new product when I heard about it earlier. Absolutely mind bending technology. Tried to get my girlfriend excited about it to no avail. At least somebody out there found it as interesting as I did. Crazy how it can coat actual glass as well with no visible differences. Glass coating glass, the future is here!
  6. Great, as if I didn't loose a good chunk of productive time last night zooming in on all the awesome goodies they own.
  7. Anybody else not able to see the gigapan anymore? The "view full screen" or whatever it said is now missing on my end. I tried to bring it up this morning to show that radio to my girlfriend. I've got the same piece of kit! I also saw those Wilco toy trucks recently at a collectables show. They are new pieces that make sounds and light up if I remember correctly. I didn't have the cash to drop on them unfortunately.
  8. you're referring to the skating rink i presume? went to a few birthday parties up there when i was little. not many times other than that, my sense of balance is horrible and i love not having broken wrists. you frequented it much? since you seem to know washington i'd like to give a shout out to SHORTY'S and OSSO'S! also, terrible towels have suddenly become even more of a hot commodity in southwestern pa.
  9. when i was young i found his voice so grating it would drive me nuts. as i grew older i appreciated him quite a bit more and would watch the games on tv but listen to him on the radio. he was pittsburgh. what a guy.
  10. chris, no one knows me either! hah i appreciate the info on winking lizard. just checked out their site and it looks good to me. i'm not about to miss the band opening with radio cure just because my grilled cheese was running late. http://www.winkinglizard.com/data/content/lakewood.asp you live 1/4 mile from the show? thats sick. is the band stopping by for coffee? also speaking of odd venues did anyone see the two days prior to the latrobe show at west virginia university? its the smallest room i've seen them in plus it didn't start until 9 or 10 or something weird like that. they c
  11. i'm a sucker for melted cheese. thanks for the heads up on melt, i'll hit GLB next time. i was also at latrobe and pittsburgh last year. both pretty lame venues in my opinion but better seeing them in gymnasiums rather than not at all.
  12. myself and 2 others are coming in from pittsburgh. definitely hitting up GLB if the weather and traffic cooperate on our trek north. not taping though.

    wtf!!!!!!!!

    Cleveland is shut out too. booooooooooooo
  14. The love for Wilco does transend the Burgh Cleveland rivalry. No offense to you and your native roots intended. Honestly I've been to Cleveland numerous times and I kind of like it. It just always amuses me what football means to some fans in this town. I'm not even a huge football fan byself but I love how this town follows that team. Glad somebody knows what that dancing thing was about. I was on the floor just to the right of the dancer and I still couldn't figure out what the heck was going on. It was amusing though.
  15. I was worried there wasn't a taper at the show. I looked around but didn't see any mics sticking up. Glad to hear it sounds good, can't wait to download it. Felt bad that Tweedy wasn't aware of Pittsbughs animosity towards Cleveland. He thought we were cheering for them! Hahah. Great show.
