it might end up turning into a colonoscopy.

Tweety. Knows what's up.

i'm beginning to get a vibe that collectively, Via Chicago is hoping for a Friday shutout for our new pal Tweety.

if you want to get all snarky w/ me, i'm totally game for it. but i'm having a hard time understanding what you're saying:

so Ticketmaster has some magical combo of hardware and software that allows you to always get tickets to any event, regardless of the demand? interesting.

ok, settle down. i saw 'kept trying' and not 'logged me out' sorry for your frustrations.

when demand far outstrips supply in cases like these, what exactly are these 'screwups' on the end of the ticket seller? serious question.

One thing I wished I spent more time doing at last year's Solid Sound was to listen to the headphone station at The Loft installation, where there was a bunch of alternate recordings/tracks from various Wilco songs... maybe for the rarities box, there's a download coupon to at least allow streaming access of this stuff.

when i was at Roadburn two years ago, on my way to the venue i saw Gira at a sidewalk table w/ a lithe lass. this was just a few days after the event, and i mentioned i'd seen a clip of the event (i didn't want to call it for what it actually was, which was a withering, hilarious dress-down rant) on youtube. he wasn't aware of that, but a few days later the clip disappeared. looks like someone recently uploaded just the audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SklCTLW60dw tonight, i am going to see DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist playing records from the actual collection of Afrika Bambaataa.

i was figuring that maybe Reprise was pushing for a 'Best Of' collection, but obviously Nonesuch would have to get involved (as well as Elektra, if any Mermaid material will be included). how's that all work, anyway?

wednesday night = suckitude.

oh, nice! were you at the infamous solo Gira show in Denver when he went on the tirade to shut up the talkers?

i regret not seeing The Sundays w/ Yo La Tengo in '90 or so at Citi.

Inside/Outside, thanks for that writeup.

Though my problems are meaningless, that don't make them go away.

30 years, even.

part of the challenge is to take 30 less seconds in the shower.

Dave and I know what's what.

I'd go if there was a guarantee i'd hear "The Have Nots"
