  1. Visited the R+R Hall of Fame yesterday on my way home from vacation and noticed there were no Wilco CD's or DVD's being sold in the record store section in the gift shop.......I wasn't looking to buy anything but I was curious to see if they had the new DVD but they didn't......They had so many other bands and performers product there who can't hold a candle to Wilco......Kind of surprised me.......Does this have something to do with the record company's lack of promotion or the Hall not recognizing them as an important act?
  2. Have a listen.... http://tela.sugarmegs.org/_asxtela/JeffTwe...rthamptonMA.asx
  3. Just got back from my mid-west history/Wilco tour........After sightseeing for most of the day in Kentucky we made the drive up to Bloomington for the show from Louisville.....First of all, I've got to say that Indiana University is a pretty fine looking campus and the auditorium sound up in the balcony was great......The weather was also great which allowed us to sit outside the auditorium right up until Wilco came on......We were hanging by the Hoagy Carmichael statue near where the buses were parked and we were able to see Jeff, Nels and John as they walked past us from the bus to the side
  4. Good explanation of economic problems...... http://geraldcelentechannel.blogspot.com/2...covery-apr.html
  5. I've purchased two top of the line Martins (HD28-V and a D41-Special) on ebay for way less than what you can buy them for through the music websites.......Have a look..... Ebay
  6. My advice is to save your money for a few more months and buy a Martin.........Why not get the best rather than an imitation?
  7. Yeah, squeezing in Wilco will give me a break from looking at rock walls, rail fences and earthen redoubts......
  8. Two co-workers and myself are driving to the Louisville/Lexington, Kentucky area on Wed. from Connecticut for one of our many American history trips which we take a couple of times a year to see Civil War battlefields and and other historical sites......I happened to notice that tickets were still available for this show and picked up three in the balcony.......Going an extra 100 miles to see Wilco on a whim is not bad.......I'm pumped.....
  9. Since Feb. 08 I've seen Wilco or Jeff Tweedy five times in the New England/NYC area and could have gone to two more if I really wanted to.......I've got a feeling that they might not pass this way again until late in the year or not at all......Just my take on it.......
  10. Good article..... http://informationclearinghouse.info/article22370.htm

  12. Why did they take you down last month? Were you getting pressure form the music label?
  13. Thanks, I didn't realize this was one of the charity shows that were auctioned off. Is this one bigger (more people) than the Living Room shows?
  14. What is the story behind this show? How does one get to go? Who runs it? etc., etc.?
  15. They don't even hide it now.......This was once considered crazy conspiracy stuff......Now coming to reality like most of the other so-called conspiracy theories about global governance......Do you think this will be a democratically elected world government concerned with the right of the people or the interests of the super rich and powerful? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/comment...l-currency.html http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?con...a&aid=13045 Global governance is next.... http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?con...a&aid=12982 Leading Bilderberger shaped G-
  16. Neil Young.......Harvest Dan Fogelberg.......Homefree Wilco......SBS Poco.....From the Inside Neil Young ......After the Goldrush Jackson Browne......For Everyman Dan Fogelberg.......Souvernirs
  17. Are you people f*****g crazy?.........They are one of the best live bands going.......Jeff himself says they make their living on the road......Do you honestly think they go in the recording studio to make a shitty album?......Every album they have made has redeeming qualities even the ones I don't listen to that much.......This thread should have been started yesterday on April 1st in the joke section........I happen to like SBS and AM so for me they can't go wrong with this album if any part of your theory holds up.....Enjoy the music while you can.......Christ, I remember everyone was worri
