i just got my 75 dollar tickets, i figured it would be sold out. theres no way i could leave it to chance and get them saturday. 75 is a little much, especially for a solo show. im sure itll be awesome though.

i like am.

just got changing horses today, its pretty awesome.. i knew it would be

the tweedy/bennett acoustic shows were pretty awesome. i like the new ones though, where glenn comes out and stuff.

i cant wait to hear this stuff. when is it coming out?

haha, we should give the guy a break. im sure hell pass the drug test for the next olympics.

sucks for all the little kids who look up to him though, my little brother included. oh well.

that fucking rules. i didnt get invited.

...

last time i saw wilco, they opened with that song, and it was great.

if they wanna see jay bennett play it, then they should go get a bootleg. there were some really cool videos on that article, though.

i definitely wanna go to the new york show, its gonna be awesome

maybe "wilco" in the wilco song will be changed to "ill go"

haha, i like how he calls them "crutches." effects blow.

this setup is awesome!

i like how you soundproofed the walls... functional and good looking. what kinda stuff did you use?

that just happened to me with fleet foxes. id say it takes 2 or 3 listens for an album to click. the first time you have to "install" it, like my friend says.

as a side note, i hated wilco when i first heard them.

im fucking psyched for tomorrow.

ironic slide guitar is my favorite.

mccain is saying palin has a "big future" with the gop. ive heard a bunch of people say that she might run for president.

...

at first i thought hurley was a dumbass for turning himself in, but i dunno. i think ben has something more up his sleeve than just bringing everyone back to the island. im pissed i have to wait a week.

i think maybe he realized he doesnt like playing shows now that hes sober. have you seen the guy live? everyones screaming like idiots. id need to be wasted to put up with that shit.

im using audacity, which is a free multitrack recording program you can download. i use a cad u37 condenser that connects to my usb port, and this is more than adequate for recording demos and stuff. i also have a fostex digital 8 track and sm57 that my band uses, which gives us a lot of control. i know a lot of people will disagree with me, but if youre going the cost effectiveness route, just use a crappy mic into a free recording program like audacity. im sure itll sound fine.

see, i tried the bbe, and i thought it made my tone sound a bit digital. i sold it.

i got a morell lap steel on musicians friend for 175. the thing sounds pretty good, and it plays well. the nut on mine broke, but it still plays allright. you get what you pay for.

i want this one someday:

first off, wow... i didnt expect to get this many posts, haha.

but yeah, im using a gibson double cut les paul (the faded kind) with p-90s and a mexico strat. volume isnt really an issue with me, so i can crank it to get that sound.. i bought the amp used so maybe a tube change would help. however, i hate effects big time, i always end up selling them. although i like tube screamers, ive never played a pedal that i really liked. so i was thinking about getting a little booster like the micro amp or electro-harmonix lpb-1 to drive the input a bit before it hits the power section. i like using the volume knob to get different sounds and all, i just want some more sparkle and warmth. (dont we all?)

look up the dvd project, its sick

i just saw this.. i got a few videos from the dvd project, including tupelos last show. this clip came in the extra features.. id imagine jay farrar wasnt much fun to be in a band with. but as a funny side note, conan looks so 90s cheesy. its weird that was more than ten years ago.
