Can you stow away to New Haven too???!!!

I hit the ladies right when Spiders starts. Late in the first set, while it is building, always make it back before Nels goes at it. ALWAYS works, especially if I work my way back front with a "sorry, I have a place further, so sorry, I'm going to keep moving, excuse me, sorry."

Putting the kids to bed NOW. Last night was too much fun!

I'm wiped...

Me too, I didn't think I'd make the whole thing!

This is awesome!

Is Jerico any good?

Yeah, it's not bad, it's one of those shows you can't miss or you loose all of the story line. my husband got me into it.

yeah, it's good. kinda like lost - you have to watch them all.

yeah, i missed too many of those.

I'm watching Jerico during the break.

You guys are GENIUS!

OMG, that's the BEST ONE! I can never find it around here.

There's something about people who get Wilco AND Chubby Hubby!

on a side note, anyone ever have "half baked" ben and jerry's??

 

wow, what a nice treat while listening to some tunes!

I'm deep into B&J's Chubby Hubby.

Somebody has a new toy.

I wish my laptop has better speakers. Alas.

This is so great! I haven't heard radio cure live before.

This is so much better than American Idol!

Sooooo Sesame Street!

Awesome!

I wish they had some way to see the scale. There's no way to see how giant they really are. Really beautiful regardless!

well, i did make out w/ nels cline post-show...best of luck!

NNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I dodged a bullet by seeing them right after his bout with the chicken pox. Oh please Concert Gods, no illnesses for Wilco!

Alison, good luck with the promotion!

i blame what i think i'm coming down w/ on you and tully for engaing me in friendly conversation after the show on friday. i hope you two are happy w/ yourselves.

Please, I'm begging you all going to the residency, please don't give it to the band. I'm living for Sunday night in New Haven!

3 of us had it, my daughter first--104 degree fever, then me during the super bowl and a few days after, then my husband with a fever for a week, and generally sick for another. I have known him for over 20 years and have never seen him this sick. I knew he was really feeling bad when he missed 4 days of work, he never misses work. Tons of people I know here in the Hartford area have it.

Lots of fluids, eat some protein if you can. A spoonful of honey can help a cough. My friend swears by oscillium (sp?--you get it at the health food store). My husband only just got his sense of smell and taste back, he had a glass of wine friday and it totally wiped him out.

We've never had the flu before, and maybe it wouldn't have helped this year, but, we won't miss shots after this!

I'm just glad it went through us before the New Haven show!

Good vibes to you and yours!

I noticed that when I got my issue. Love that fricken' magazine.

Alas, was not meant to be. Congrats! Have a great time all! See some of you in New Haven!

I know its a total long shot to win, but I wish they would notify today. I would have a lot of arrangements to make. flights, childcare, etc.

So sorry.

I know the band (errrr, Jeff) always comments on it and likes when kids are in the audience. But at a recent Wilco GA show, I was at the stage and the family next to me had 3 or 4 kids ranging in age from about 5 to 11. Then there was a dad next to them with a son, 6 (I know cuz the other kids asked him). ALL these kids proceeded to sit on the floor (yes, even during songs) and it then became mine and everyone else's responsibility to not step on their fingers. It took away from my enjoyment of the show. Not that I wanted to cut a rug or anything, but I literally had to keep my feet planted in one spot for 4 hours.

 

Even when these kids weren't sitting on the floor, they couldn't see over the wall in front of us (and had they been farther back they wouldn't have been able to see over the people) and I felt bad for them.

 

The one little fella with his dad spent the night sleeping on the floor between his dad's feet. Unlike the other family, his dad kept him well protected (so he didn't bother me or anyone else); but it's still not like he saw the show.

 

I don't think GA's great for kids, unless there's a lawn or something to run around in. Or a balcony to go sit in if the crowd on the floor isn't kid-conducive.

 

Just my 2 cents,

-Laura

I agree with you Laura. While I say I'm taking my kids to the Pines show if they have one, I'm planning on laying the blanket out in the back. The front is no place for little kids.

If the play the Pines Theater this summer, I'm considering bring my 5 and 6 year olds. It could infringe on my good time. It isn't all about me me me. Is it? No, really, is it???!!!

This might be the coolest thing ever.

I hate to be this person, but, when I first saw it I thought, "Why on earth would someone make a Richard Nixon pillow?"
