I just finished watching the documentary and thought this was worth sharing to the Vietcong
But the overarching theme is his unique approach to music. For Seeger, music is a tool to bring people together, and that, as much as the singing, is the point. As we see him leaving the stage of Carnegie Hall at the end of a concert when he was 84, he says in voiceover,

DJs STV SLV and ABX (aka Steve Reidell and Aaron Brink) ...
ok, DJs STV SLV and ABX are actually Steve Reidell and Aaron Brink
is STV Steve, and SLV and ABX are Aaron?
or is STV SLV Steve, and ABX is Aaron?
there are three sets of initials but only two DJs
seriously, who sits down and thinks to himself, "Let's call ourselves STV SLV and ABX? That'll be cool"
WTF

I'm an XPN member and fairly active on their boards. No way this would have escaped my notice. If it happened it happened w/o involvement from XPN and completely unnoticed by a large number of Wilco fans on that board.
Also, Brandywine Raceway was turned into a shopping center over 10 years ago.
btw - KEXP blows XPN's doors off for variety. I support both but stream KEXP at work. John Richards is probably my favorite DJ at the moment. Some of the best at XPN (e.g. Matt Reilly) sit on the bench while Michaela Majoun and Helen Leicht clutter the airwaves.
haven't heard KEXP but i can echo the comment that WPRB blows away WXPN
WXPN is the worst excuse for an "alternative" radio station in America. It's actually the most heavily formatted station you'll ever hear. They blow their own horn like they're some cutting edge, free-form station, but they NEVER stray from their tightly formatted playlist of 60 percent women singersongwriter stuff, 35 percent tired familiar oldies (steeley dan, david bowie, rem), 4 percent current male singersongwriter stuff and 1 percent actual good new music you've never heard before. and that 1 percent is probably a little high.
WXPN never takes risks, never plays deep album cuts, never plays anything remotely edgy or experimental, never plays anything with balls. it's music for middle-aged suburban moms and dads who want to think they're cutting edge because they know who She and Him are.
WXPN sucks.

i like the way you think!
Jay: This'll be cool
Jeff: Yeah
Jay: OK, how about we do Lookin' for a Way Out?
Jeff: Let's do Gun
Jay: Nah, we should do one of mine, since I don't play 'em in Son Volt but you play Gun all the time
Jeff: That's 'cuz Gun's a better song
Jay: Why'd you have to hit on my girlfriend?
Jeff: Why couldn't you just call me when you broke up the band?
Jay: Drop dead.
Jeff: Fuck you.

not I or me

God bless Phil Chevron.
absolutely
was inspirational seeing him up there with the band in March
and when he moved up to sing lead on thousands are sailing while shane was being dragged backstage ... an unforgettable moment

I'm shocked no one has mentioned this yet. It looks like the Pogues have just released their very own boxed set. Here's the details: Pogue's Box Set
should be fantastic
much talk about it - and fan involvement in it - over on the pogues board
was put together largely by active board participant Phil Chevron
god fucking bless the pogues

There might be no better song than "Waterloo Sunset."

5) Kiss me, Son of God
4) Famous Polka
3) Put your Hand inside the Puppet Head

I've tried like hell to like it and at a few points even pretended to like it.
But I really don't like it.

My first REM show was in 1995. Out of the almost 700 Concerts I have been to I would put it in the top 10.
The Setlist was
23 June 1995 - Madison Square Garden, New York, NY
support: Luscious Jackson
set: I Took Your Name / What's The Frequency, Kenneth? / Circus Envy / Turn You Inside-Out / Crush With Eyeliner / Try Not To Breathe / Undertow / Welcome To The Occupation / Bang And Blame / Strange Currencies / Revolution / Tongue / Man On The Moon / Country Feedback / Half A World Away / Losing My Religion / Orange Crush / Finest Worksong / Get Up / Star 69
encore: Let Me In / Everybody Hurts / So. Central Rain / Departure / It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Sounds like our expierences were very different. The songs in bold I would consider older songs which they played a handful of. Where or when did you see them?
saw REM at least 10 times and loved all of 'em until the last one. was probably a few years before your MSG show ... in philly @ the spectrum ... don't remember exactly when. that's a great set list. i didn't get any catalogue stuff. and i'm not a big "play the oldies" guy. but, ya know, just one would have been cool
very disappointing night.

they're playing the new Jason Mraz CD at the starbucks i'm in right now and i have to say it's some of the worst shit i've ever heard in my life
truly wretched

When I saw REM in the mid-1990s it was one of the worst concerts I've ever attended. They didn't play a single old track, the sound was shit, Stipe was arrogant, and I swore that no matter whatever happened in the future I'd never spend money on this band again.
So now that they're actually playing songs from before they started sucking I'm not going back on my word.
So no

Ray Davies has written more great songs than anybody who's ever lived.
I went with Ray.

this new pollard record ... Off to Business ... blows
so much for the "return to form" we'd been hearing from the pollard camp
seems like he's good for like two good songs per record these days.
gratification to conrete is a cool track. but i haven't found the second good one yet.
too many chords, too few melodies, no riffs
bob still hasn't put out a great record since From a Compound Eye

1. Same Place the Fly Got Smashed
2. Devil Between my Toes
3. Sandbox
4. Do the Collapse
5. Thirty Songs

There aren't a lot of artists who annoy me more right now.
I've only heard the few things that have been on the radio, but she sounds like one of those artists that some record company has decided to shove down our throats, like it or not. I'm betting she tested really well in focus groups.
Kind of like Jason Mraz.
it's physically impossible to listen to Jason Mraz without vomiting.

i saw them open for somebody ... i think it was scruffy the cat or dumptruck ... circa 1988
left zero impression on me
that really helped, didn't it?
