It's up on What? as well.

Jeff's track starts off cool but just doesn't bring the vocal punch I'm accustomed to.Some other nice tracks on there though. It's sort of crap that they put You Never Know on there even though it does have some slight variations. It would have been nice to get something different.

Wasn't Jeff doing Fake Plastic Trees supposed to be on this?

I thought it was pretty neat that Jeff and Spencer chose to rock out some Meters. I didn't re-watch the piece but I believe it was Cissy Strut. Jeff was gettin down to, Zigaboo would have been proud!

Cissy Strut indeed. Love this tune and thought it was very cool to see Jeff and the kids jamming on this one.

Well, here are my pictures. It was hard to get any good shots with the view I had. I was also kind of far back for my small camera. I also posted a link to my Picasa album. You can download any photos you want from there. Anyway, enjoy

For people who take the camera signs seriously, just be cautious with your camera. Hide it on you when you are walking in, just in case you get a pat down. Look around a little bit before you take a pic and never use your flash. Flash pics during a concert never turn out well. If you need the flash in order to take the picture, then the picture isn't worth taking...IMO.

Oh damn. Sorry I wasn't really following who was going to this one. I still owe you a beer for that Vic show.

 

Such a great show last night! Leading up to this, last week, a big part of I75 was destroyed by a gas tanker explosion. Not only did that get fixed up just in time for the show (smoothest part of I75 right now), but there was nobody to collect the fee at the parking garage after the show - score free parking! Even Customs going over and coming back were cool. It's like the stars aligned for us Wilco fans last night!

 

I pity my girlfriend. Work at 8 am today. I took the day off.

No worries man, I actually didn't know I was going until Monday. My buddy had extra tickets but I wasn't going to go but suddenly had to come to MI so I made it work. It would have been good to say hello at least. Didn't even really get on VC to see who was going either.

I didn't take a lot of fantastic pics but some looked like they turned out fine. I had a bad eye line so a lot of the time I couldn't even see the band. But I did have a lot of room to dance so that was cool.

I took a bunch of pictures but I left my camera cord at home and won't be back until next week. I got a few good ones of the backup singers so I'll pass them along when i get home.

What a great show. My friends and I got in a little late so we didn't have a very good view but oh well. The sound got better and better throughout the night but started out a little muffled. Really fun show with a lot of great highlights.

Thanks Wilco!

Sold

Not the same impact as the real Rick Roll. Still funny though.

The problem is that the cover is what sells copies. RS chooses covers that will simply sell a lot of copies based on the cover alone. I love Wilco and think they are one of the best bands in music today but I don't think having them on the cover is going to sell a lot of copies.

Shit, they haven't even sold out a 1700 seat theater in Royal Oak, Michigan.

I just don't get it.

Posting that is your way of saying, "I'm doing something which could be violating certain people's boundaries, but it's not because I'm legit, man." Announcing your trip is pointless, and boisterous in all the wrong ways.

I see your point, but you don't know me and are projecting your own view on someone you don't know based on a very simple post. I think you need to relax. I think if you met me you would see that I quite a pleasant person. I purposely didn't post anything yesterday when the other pic was up. Mods feel free to delete my posts as well as the replies if you feel I am crossing any boundaries.

Off to the Cubs game, have a nice day everyone.

Doing that makes you a curious fan, which a lot of us are. Posting that makes you a creepy fan, which a lot of us could be but would rather not be.

Whatever...

It's not much to look at. And, for the rest of you, I think the addresses have now been scrubbed.

I checked it out on Google maps and yes, not much to look at. I just got my old bike back and was looking for someplace to ride. Just thought it might be cool to check out. Even if I did see anyone in the band outside I wouldn't approach them. Not much for bothering musicians when they are just living their lives.

Thanks to these pics I now know where the loft is. Going to ride my bike over there tomorrow. Just check it out.

Not sure if this has been discussed in detail but I couldn't find anything in my initial search.

I was looking around the new site and found something about an iPhone App in the info section. I did a search through the App Store but nothing came up. After doing a google search I found this:

http://impost.roundarch.com/tag/wilco/

Working with Wilco - The Labs team has been doing a lot of mobile development, focusing primarily on the Apple iPhone and Google Android operating systems, but keeping our eye on the ever-changing future (can you say Palm Pre?). Because most of the large scale Web projects that we engage on with clients have some sort of mobile component, Roundarch has invested a lot of time and energy in the development of what we are referring to as the “Mobile Web Enabler Proxy”. This server-side framework contains a Request Translator and Content Transformation layer, and is designed to provide a standards-based mechanism for the delivery of content to the cornucopia of mobile devices in the marketplace. I will be sure to go into more details about how this all works in future posts, but for now, we are excited to be working with the band Wilco to test things out. We are in the final stages of the development of a Wilco mobile application that will be targeted towards iPhone users and heavily promoted by the folks at Apple. - www.wilcoworld.net

Anyone have any more information?

But i was also wondering if the stream is better quality than the leak copy floating around?

Seems to be the same to me.

Is the loft in Bucktown?

It's funny you posted that. You Never Know sounds a lot like Harrison. Good tune.

Listening now. Bull Black Nova is the shit!

Also, here is a cut down version of Jeff's interview on Marketplace:

yeah, the lyrics are timely and relevant.... but I'm not really diggin' the music too much.

I think the lyrics are supposed to be in the forefront on this one. That being said I like the whole package. Wasn't expecting much more than what I got. Nice addition to the catalog. Woody is the man.

Why not go to Wilmington by yourself and Brooklyn with your friend?

Amen

Oxxys, you should check your PM's.

They don't seem to be seeding though.
