They'll be announcing the full line-up for this on Monday, and three-day passes go on sale 3/30.

(It's far more important than St. Patrick's Day, and it's possible to celebrate it without making an ass of yourself by drinking "car bombs" while wearing a green and white striped Cat-in-the-Hat hat.) Happiest of happy days to you, Judy! You're not just one of my favorite VCers, you're one of my favorite people anywhere.

Judy, that post and your new avatar are just two more reasons for me to be madly in love with you. Laura!!!

Purely a fact-finding mission. Can't wait to hear from the traveling-down-under contingent!

It's on the "War on War" single.Yeah, check out the pinned thread on Non-Album Tracks up top in this section. Some fine work was done on that list!

I know this article was posted ages ago, but how much do I wish that he was on VC in this picture? Also, as was noted in the RTT earlier (thanks Kim!), one of the posters by VC's own j4lackey made it into the photo gallery, too:

OK. But around here, four pages deep = less than two weeks old. Not everyone checks the board every day, or has wilcoworld as their homepage, or gets google news alerts for "Wilco", or whatever. I know for some of us (myself included) that seems impossible, but there you go.

Four pages deep... what was?

Dreamin' and Sandoz?

Dude, chill. It was not the story that was linked at the beginning of this thread, and if you only saw this thread, I don't think you would have seen that link previously. We do ask that people do a quick search to see if something like that's already been posted, but there's no need to get snarky.

This is the first year this festival has happened, so there's no history to go by.

radiohead and wilco in one festival pretty much right in my backyard = probably not really actually going to happen

Imaginary bump.

So true.

I totally agree. I did my open-water in Saipan, which was great, but I only realized later how lucky I was to get a really good, serious instructor. There are lots of instructors there, and it's probably the same in the more touristy diving areas in Australia, who will shortcut the training and take you on dives that you're not ready for, or take too many beginners in a group without enough qualified divers to keep an eye out for them. Definitely be careful and be smart about it, because it's so much more fun when you know what you doing, and you know that you'd know what to do if anything

If you have a decent instructor, you'll have no trouble. As Chris mentioned, sinus problems would definitely be an issue. But if you're otherwise healthy and comfortable in the water, it's really not that difficult. Without some pre-training, you're not supposed to do real open-water diving, but you'll see plenty even if you only go down 10-20 feet. If you get to do any deeper though, it'll be one of the most amazing things you'll ever do (well, it was for me, anyway ). Definitely try to get a handle on the nerves. It's totally counter-intuitive, your body won't want to believe it, but

No, but I like it!

You've heard that prior to this show, he was working as a gay stripper, right? Haven't seen last night's show yet, but will power-watch it on Tivo before the results show tonight.

MeDave and Twisted Acres.

Merged.

Yes, losing Natalie hit us all pretty hard. In happier news, my avatar change is only for another week or so. And I don't know what to tell you about Sarah! Good to see you back.

Hey, long time no see! I'm bad about remembering names, but... Larry, right? I'll be keeping an eye out for that matrix.

Very few of those folks are "independent contractors". Most people involved in prostitution, in whatever form, have either really harsh family backgrounds, or drug problems, or whatever. It's almost never just a career choice like any other.

More often than not, the prostitute.
