Sick!

Im praying they do that in London.

love it when jeff breaks out his jazzmaster too.....

In a Future Age? wow.

that is amazing.

this is awesome.

you might wanna change that to say "homicide"

just a tip.

My dog Sam ran in and started shaking during the bit on Ashes of American Flags (the song) where Glenn hits the xylophone.

Just watching Kingpin right now so we'll how it goes....

EDIT: no response, how strange....

thank you sunken mountain, good understanding

SBS is an absolutely brilliant record, i love it

and i agree as well, most live versions sound much better

this is a rather alarming topic in my eyes...

As a relatively new listener compared to most of you, its the older stuff that really gets my goat

tweedy's voice is really different on all other albums except SBS, and it's the slow pace and weird twanging that Jay Bennett throws around

Nels has raised them to another level, and i cannot believe songs like Side With The Seeds, On and On and On and leave me like you found me are making it on here, they're very emotionally driven songs with each member of Wilco really allowing their talent to come to the fore.

Old songs like radio cure, sure the end is interesting but the start is downright depressing

songs like the more cheery old tunes seem to be getting a rougher reception on here as well, but they kind of give you a spring in your step and are a great antithesis to other darker tracks

discuss.. haha this should be funny

please please please wilco I have to see them live soon

that was the worst thing, coming back off a nice holiday to be told that they have cancelled the shows, the very first thing said to me!!!! argh!!

surely they have done every venue in the States by now...

come on guys, fair share

Does anyone know where I can find tabs for most of the wilco and various side projects, including golden smog etc?

Thanks - sticky

Many thanks!!

That looks excellent

we need some more links to watch the videos, and then have a full Impossible Germany solo session of listening to Nels tear it up before voting on our favourites.

I finish college next week so I may be doing some scouting, any help would be appreciated...

Does anyone have or know where I could find the heroes artwork of the band?

Thanks,

wow, I'm genuinely surprised by some of the views airing here.

I am a recently converted Wilco fan in all honesty, and after discovering SBS, I could not stop listening to it.

I can't see why people can see this album as boring really, the amazing soloing of Nels, Glenn's fantastic beats and yet more lyrical beauty from Jeff.

Listening to previous albums, this record seems to have more of an upbeat feeling and of positivity in comparison to the previous records, and as a collection of songs and individually, I can repeat earlier sentiments about how I think this is one of the greatest records ever.

But I have to ask, exactly what is it about SBS that you don't like? Personally, it ticks all the boxes but I'd like to see what you all think about it.

i think its generally the tempo and tne of the studio albums that makes me listen to the live stuff more

its quite downbeat, dark and haunting, and Jeff saying he can't listen to old studio versions kinda compounds my point

Nels and Glenn are immense live and many dimensions to the sound, through little intricacies and new parts they through in that just make you gawp in amazement!!

sticky

wow GregRVA!!

I'm surprised at that response, what tracks do you like on the album then, or other seminal songs from Wilco that you like?

Wilco Worshipper is the kind of response I was expecting, lucky that he's been able to see them live... why did the UK gigs have to be cancelled grrrrr

How do people rate the live versions of old songs against their original recordings??

Personally I think they are better, being more upbeat and rocky

What does everyone else think??

sorry happeningstone i didnt mean any offence by this!! just how strongly i feel about the song u kno i cant help it lol

let's not get carried away?!?!?! is this the US ending track?? ill have to find it and listen to it!!

yeh i can see your point about the whole live experience livening up the emotion!!

and Glenn's part in the track during the breakdown is definately underrated, such a cool drum part!!

Does anyone know where I can get an mp3 or wav etc for this song (live or studio)?? (not torrent or similar, they such a hassle)

It's such a heartwarming song and it would be great if any links or files could be located for me.

Thanks a lot,

I think this song has to be my joint favourite with Side With The Seeds

its unbelievably beautiful

the lyrics contrast brilliantly in feeling and emotion to the music

and thats what makes this song so good

the studio and live versions are equally good i think

sometimes Jeff misses emotion slightly live, but in other places he absolutely nails it

i can understand why people can cry to this, but it makes me positive and happy, especially

"on and on and on, we'll be together yeah"

kinda sayin that nothin can brake us apart and that you have to accept inevitabilities and move on, enjoy life while you can and take everything

kinda wish I'd heard this song much earlier in life, its already my kind of motto of how i should be

definately use it at a wedding or as the song of a relationship, as long as your partner enjoys it as well

How can you skip this song??!!?!?!?!?!? It finishes the album so well and brings it to a conclusion

what is it about the live version that people like over the studio??

sticky xx rich

and now a 5 day residency in Chicago...

I'm starting to feel bittersweet now....

yeah, but only two mainland UK dates, both in London? i know the UK isnt particularly big compared to the states, but i really really hope they reschedule those dates

Does any of my fellow European Wilco fans feel slightly left out in terms of gigs??

ANOTHER stateside tour has been announced, and then they are onto Australia!!

of course by passing us!!

Does any one have any idea of when they could possibly be playing the UK and some Europe dates as well?

I was devastated when the Birmingham gig was cancelled, I'm desperate to see them now!!

Any info on potential dates?

Thanks everyone

Hi everyone,

quick question about one part of this track.

When Jeff sings "the more I think about, the more I'm sure it's true" and Glenn does the strange offbeat part, how does he get the pause before the next lyric?

it seems to me like hihat, single bass, hihat, double bass, hihat single bass, hihat double bass, but then how does he get the pause, I always mess that bit up.

Thanks,

Sticky
