  1. When you get your initial menu, it'll give you instructions on changing your advance preferences. Then you have to start Quicktime again. It took forever for the menu to appear. Once you click on the extra.mov, wait awhile, and it'll finally load. I know it's there because I have all the songs.

  3. Haven't started to download the audio files, but I have the menu in front of me. Yes, the in-between concert footage songs (i.e., Radio King, Family Gardener) are included in the download. There are two additional songs not included on the DVD that are available to download Please Tell My Brother She's A Jar
  4. The extras are freezing up on me, but before I shut down the menu, the actual page of audio downloads appeared, and there are bonus songs available that do not appear on the DVD. I saw two of them before the menu disappeared, and they were Please Tell My Brother She's A Jar I am stoked. Now if I can only get it to work
  5. Of all the BT songs, this one I miss the most being played live. I think the current line-up could do some creative things with this song. I love it. Being There was the second Wilco album I purchased, after Mermaid Avenue I. I liked it a lot but never found myself listening to it in its entirety. At the time I was more into Folk-Rock than Alt-Country or Country Rock or whatever we want to try to label BT as representing (70's boogie, southern rock, etc.). A number of the songs just didn't connect with me (A.M. is still pretty hit and miss with me as a whole). I purchased Summerteeth a
  6. I enjoyed the DVD for the glimpse that it provided. That said, I wish they had included Jeff's story about the Ameobia (?) Records incident in San Francisco. I also would have liked to have had Spiders (Kidsmoke) included, along with a few other songs he plays regularly during his acoustic tours (Mountain Bed, Bob Dylan's 49th Beard). Finally, if Jeff or someone with influence, authority, or power reads this, I would love for them to at some point offer downloads to all the songs from the shows that are included on this DVD and not just the songs that appear in the film (same thing with KT
  7. Off the top of my head: Jackie Wilson Said (I'm in Heaven When You Smile) - Van Morrison Loves Me Like A Rock - Paul Simon You Can Call Me All - Paul Simon Furry Happy Monsters - R.E.M.
  8. I hope someone will tape this in high quality and share for those of us who don't really have access to appreciate this with the limited technology they possess. Thank in advance to whoever that generous person is.

  10. complex is not the first word that came to mind when thinking about your posts and rationale. To me, common sense is lacking in your arguments. Whatever though ... I think the general consensus on the board is that whatever transpired (punch, no punch), Jeff was justified in whatever course of action he took the second the guy made physical contact with him. I personally wouldn't want anyone living in my neighborhood with my family if they think that unwanted physical contact is acceptable if the person initiating the contact doesn't intend to harm them and it is the responsibility of the
  11. I can't really tell by your post if you are trying to empathize with the guy that went up on stage or chastising those that are making a big deal out of it (including Jeff Tweedy). If you are trying to get inside this guy's head and figure out why he thought it was fine to be an ass, I can sort of buy that - if you are saying that Jeff and others are overreacting by punching the guy or thinking he was a threat - well, I have a really difficult time buying that. Your analogy or example is pretty poor. First, Jeff is not just another guy at a bar subjecting himself to physical contact with t
  12. I was being playful - though I thought the second part of your post contradicted the first part. All in all, it is quite a subjective question.
  13. Sure sounds like you take a position on this argument using amateur psychology and your own childrearing theory.
  14. When I was five, my aunt left me in the car and ran into a grocery store to pick up something. She left the keys in the ignition, and I shifted the car out of park, put it into neutral, and released the parking brake. Well, the parking lot was on a slope, and the car began to roll backwards. Surprisingly enough, it did not make contact with any other vehicles. Rather, it rolled out of the parking lot, crossed over the road, and eventually stopped in the empty parking lot across the street. The look on my aunt's face when she came out of grocery store and couldn't find her car for a minute
  15. I was probably spanked daily, and I deserved every one of them. As I got older, wooden spoons were the rod of choice. Eventually, my buttocks firmed up and the spoons would break upon contact. Once, though, I got caught with a hardback book stuffed in the back of my jeans (like my mother wasn't going to notice that), and that was the only time I was spanked with a 1x2 piece of lumber. Now, was that child abuse? Back then, I don't think so. Would that be acceptable now? I think the general consensus would be no. But back in the late 70's and early 80's most of my friends and I were sub
  16. My thoughts and prayers are with the Tweedys. A wife, mother, and grandmother will be greatly missed. So sorry for your loss Mr. Tweedy. Jonathan Charlotte, NC
  17. I think the phrase "aged badly" indicates that after some time away you sense or hear flaws that maybe were missed out when it was first released. The funny thing is that most of the music geeks I grew up around (and I myself wasn't really a music geek - I was sort of in the middle between music geek and jock) dismissed both Nevermind and Ten because of its slick production sound. So in that sense, I don't think Nevermind and Ten have aged poorly - I think they have always sounded "too slick" for their own good. For me, it has nothing to do with the time period or the technology available.
  18. Having grown up in Washington state and going through my teen years during the Grunge period, I'd like to chime in on my personal experiences and recollections (this still is opinion and not the gospel truth). There were two kinds of grunge fans (and to an extent, Nirvana fans). The first were pure music lovers and disenchanted teens. The second were varsity football playing jocks who liked anything loud and aggressive (obviously blanket statements, since many crossover into multiple categories) The music lovers tired of Nevermind quickly. The jocks couldn't get enough of it. They are t
  19. If this board can't even come to a consensus over whether or not Tweedy's new songs are on par with his previous songs, what kind of consensus are we going to get over organized religion / fundamentalist fanaticism / and our own existential narrative on our religious/spiritual upbringing (or scarring for some)? That said, I have found most of these posts worth reading and commend those who attempted to use reason, thought, clarity, and sensitivity to their posts - now if only the rest of the world would follow suit. On a sidebar, I'm not entirely sure what the Pope was trying to communicat
  20. I just wanted to comment that I hope someone actually helps the original poster and links some excellent versions. Unfortunately, I do not have any on my work computer. BTW, I agree that the song should not have been included on the Mermaid Avenue albums. That doesn't take away from the song itself.
  21. Bob Dylan * Visions of Johanna * Chimes of FreedomS * Stuck Inside Of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again Led Zeppelin * Almost every one of their over 7 minutes songs, but two highlights for me: * The Rain Song * When the Levee Breaks Van Morrison * TB Sheets * Astral Weeks * Cyprus Avenue * Madame George * Listen to the Lion That's all I can think of at the moment. In my opinion, these three artists/groups have consistently demonstrated their mastery in crafting long, epic songs.
  22. I like them, but it took time for me to appreciate them. My first impression was that they seemed sort of musically stagnant, as though the additional layers of keyboards and whatnot were going to provide texture and variety to the music. At first, some of the songs just seemed to be stuck in first gear musically. Lyrically, however, the words remain as brilliant and disturbing as always. Whenever they pop up on my ipod, I usually stop and listen to listen to the little variations between the demos and the official releases.
  23. I can't say I have much if any interest in seeing this movie. It would have to get some pretty incredible reviews and good word of mouth from some of my trusted friends before I would pay to see this in the theater.
