This is the part that gets me. If I'm going to go to a Harry Potter theme park (and yeah, if they build it, I'll probably go eventually), I'd really like it to be in a place where the weather allows for some approximation of the setting of the books.

Wilco's History on the Billboard Charts

No rain, vegan cake, fireworks, Tower of Terror, grandma's house, 1200 pictures... sounds like a dream wedding! Congrats!

How would that work, exactly? Would it be "WalMart presents Wilco", or would they just flat out change their name, so you'd see something like "tonight at the Bank of Amercia Pavilion... Microsoft"?

When the new park opened here in 2000, it was Pac Bell Park. In 2004, it became SBC Park, and in 2006, AT&T Park. Same company, just mergers, etc. Now we just call it "Phone Company Park". Nothing to do with Wilco and VW, just an example of naming-rights lameness.

Oh my god, ME TOO! Oh no wait, more like 6 months for me. I'm just a baby, really! Mart, I was just saying the other day how happy it makes me when you appear on my iPod (yay for album shuffle, it's always such a sweet surprise!). Can't wait to see you (and Patty and Craig) next month. June 2007 just might be my best month for music EVER! Happiest of happy days to you.

I love that one. Thanks for all the you-are-there reports, Paul.

This is why I had to stop going into Starbucks! I wanted to go off caffeine anyway, but also that filthy whore, chocolate chip banana coffee cake, kept luring me into sin. And for the record, I think I've bought a couple of the Starbucks compilation CDs.

Does dr_gingivitis still post? He predicted that Nels would join Wilco!!!

Several of the links posted above say that it's in limited release (mostly NY and LA), and will open in other areas in the next few weeks.

Newbury Comics has autographed copies of the soundtrack! Also, lots of clippy-clips here: http://www.myspace.com/oncethemovie

Have you checked out the tickets forum here? There's currently a thread offereing some tickets to that show: http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?showtopic=28409 M. Chris, are those still available?

I saw it last week with the live performances and Q&A, and the whole evening was everything I had hoped it would be.

What do you think Jen's doing right now?!? If I were her, I think right now would be pedicure time!

Could you please send this out as a bulletin to all your myspace friends? Thanks.

You'll find lots of discussion of this topic in this thread.

I think the give-away (aside from that ".ie"), is that their Tower Records is still open!

Nice! I've stolen it for my desktop background.

Lots of discussion of musictoday/shipping options in this thread.

This doesn't help anyone with any of the questions asked in this thread, but I thought it was interesting that the CD that comes with the LP has the enhanced logo, on both the CD and the slipcase (I haven't tried it yet, but I'm assuming it's there ). So those of us who bought the vinyl get it, too.

Happiest of days to you, Jesse!

It does get insane. From about three days before, I won't even be able to click on msn.com for fear of seeing a spoiler in a random headline.

He broke both his legs doing that, you know. I hope you're happy.
