You Never Know while getting my nails done, And the DJ told a funny story about how he saw someone wearng a Wilco t-shirt and gave him the "That's Cool" Sign -- but the Wilco-tshirt wearing guy look at the DJ as is he was a mental case. Maybe the Wiclo-tshirt wearing guy is reading this right now....You never know...

Let me echo all the thanks. Wow, only two of my favs made the list. I guess I really don't know my Wilco, Oh well

Sad that I will miss the music fest in NJ (bridal shower for future sis in law) But happy to see them at the Bowery Ballroom on the 23rd! For a bunch of guys who are thinning on top but thickening in the middle, they can sure rock. Seen them a bunch of time as M5 and with Robyn Hitchcock -- and am confident that the night will be rockin! Last time, I told Peter Buck that I've had a crush on him since 1989. He was nonplussed, oh well -- guess I'm not his type. I just wish he'd cut his hair, hate the bob he's got.

No spouse or boyfriend, but my friends and famliy do mock me about being a bit of a stalker. My buddy Jim keeps referring to Jeff as that honeless guy. Whatever -- they bring me magazines that feature the boys, so that's cool. And I've two co-workers who purchased W(TA) based on me, so I'm spreading the word! If I had a man in my life, maybe I would think aboot listen to, or talk about Wilco less. But, it makes me happy, so fuck em!

It's sweet that thye dug up that old high school picture for the band photo. (in other words, it's kind of an out-dated picture and they look like they're 18)

My very sophisticated, mature response to this is "Yeah, what you said!"

The original Wicker Man was creepy -- anything about nice, sweet towns folks who are actually blood thirsty satanists (or in this case pagans)always freaked me out. That whole "We've got something special panned for you..and it's that you'll be sacrificed to our fertility god or Satan" vibe. In that vein, there was some movie about a family that moves to a quaint New England town with a mystery -- which turns out to be that once a year, the women pick some hot dude to mate with a lucky gal, then all the ladies sacrifice him to their fertility god, freaked me out. Can't remember the name but

I love this. Thanks for all the nice words, getting passed over for a promotion is small potatos, but you all helped! (Hoping that "dick karma" kicks in soon! :D"

Happy birthday Jeff. I hope you do take a look at the site today -- to see all these birthday wishes and review the Why I Love SBS thread -- not just because I started it, but because you will see how much your voice and words have healed us all in some big -- and little ways. I have so much love for your music, and hope I get to feel that love for years and years to come. To happiness, health, music, and love. Your fans will love you, baby! PS It's Monty Hall's bday too!

It's up on Youtube now, so I'm cool Thanks for the help, thoough. And my comment on the piece is so girly -- love the pictures of him as a little boy. You can really see Spencer and Sam.

I've had a very bad day -- the other manager in my department was promoted to director today (he's been here for 3 years, it'll be 10 for me in December). And he is -- let me put this as delicately as possible -- a dick, and now he has authority over me. I've been working so hard all year to get myself in place for a promotion next year, and now this. So, I'm a little depressed. But, I get in my car and turn on the stereo, and am immediately embraced by the sweet warmth of Either Way. It's an aural arms open wide, a sonic shoulder for me to cry. Now, I know my sweet, wonderful Sky Blue Sk

Thanks for the link, but it ain't working

Okay, I save this now how do I open it?

I saw, but did not really hear this. I spent the weekend in Atlantice City w/ my sis and sis in law, and they were talking during the interview. And if I had shouted., "IT'S JEFF TWEEDY,. SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT" it would have confirmed their suspiscion that I'm an obsessed stalker, so I had to resist.

Well, it it were me, and someone whom I greatly admired treated me like crap and backstabbed me, I would find it kind of hard to be glowing. He may even be resisting the urge to bad mouth him (which I would, cos I'm petty and sensitive). Maybe saying what little he says is best. It also may to a bit to personal, even though he's open about the whole rehab thing. And on that -- let's stop beating that dead horse. Two big news flashes -- Jeff Tweedy went to rehab and Michael jackson died. Enough on both fronts!

Sweet Jesus God Almighty I would love that. I'm always hoping for another Minus Five collaboration. Down with Wilco is such a great album. Or something completely different, like they start a reality show where they open a bakery where they make all these elaborate cakes for Chicago's elite. They can call it At Least That's What You Baked or Wilco (The Bakers) or I Am Trying to Break Some Eggs or Outtasite (Outta the Oven) or I'm the Man Who Loves Cake. No? I vote for Loose Fur.

My guess it that it was really Maureen Cox -- the forgotten Beatle first wife -- Yoko had nothing to do with it. (Jeff's not that thin.)

$86 w/o shipping & handling, and 2 weeks to ship!?!?? For that much, Jeff should hand deliver it and let me sit on his lap while he serenades me with an A cappella version of I Am Trying to Break Your Heart (A cappella cos how can he play guitar with me sitting on his lap?)

Was I staning next to you and your girlfrind at Pines Theater in 2007-- were you the one who kept guessing the next song by JT's guitar? I ask cos I remember this couple with a pretty serious height disparity.

I was at at Robyn Hitchcock show at Maxwells in Hoboken when he made that observation. Short people, tall people -- as long as they don't push up to the front. E.g, Calvin Theatre, this past March. Towards the end, a pretty big guy ran down to the corner of the stage and just stood there -- blocking the view of the 8 people who were sitting in the front two rows on the left (one was me). Most of the time, I'm pretty nice, but that was just so rude. So, before the secrutity guard arrived, I let him know that he was blocking our view. Then he apologized and left. Or, at Wappingers Falls when

I predict the Number one will be Just a Kid (just kidding) -- but since his choice from AM was That's Not the Issue and not Pick Up the Change, I can't predict where he'll go, I thought it was going to be Ashes, cos in the same issue of the magazine it's voted one of the best songs of the last 25 years. Whatever.

Just downloaded and relived the greatness that was that night. Man, my post-cpncert blues have not gone away yet. I will need another Wilco fix soon, but my brother's getting married in Oct., and my finances will be tied up in bachelorette parties, showers and wedding gifts, so I can't swing a trip to the Mid-west for a show. Dang it. What about me and my musical needs?

That last veres is the coolest verse ever written. If you have the concert program, there's an interview with Jeff by his sons. They ask what his favorite song to play live is -- Spiders because, "I get to freak out on the guitar for like 10 minutes ... because freaking out on the guiter for 10 minutes is really good for your soul." And that's why I love Spiders -- a mindless explosion of words and music that is a complete release -- which is realy good for my soul, man. "I just do as I am told...."

Jeez - Louise. I did not realize we were getting graded on this.

But it's so much fun!!!
