What?

I thought Frat Boys put Crash Into Me by dave matthews on repeat when they wanted to get pussy...

but i guess belleville alt-country gets the ladies goin too... good to know..

Boxers or briefs?

Depends. Is there a documentary film crew following Jay through this process?

hahaha he is a bit full of himself so i wouldn't be suprised if there was a crew following him filming in black and white...

I respect Jay Bennett as a great musician, but if Jay is so pressed for money to pay for his surgery, why go through all of this when lawyers (good ones at least...) fees are rather high and there is no way to tell if he's going to win or lose.. It just doesn't seem like a smart thing for him to be doing right now. He should get his surgery and get healthy before he does any sort of legal action against Jeff/the band.

Kingpin is a great song. And the version on Ashes is great. When jeff starts screaming i actually got frightened for a second or 2...

I hate Pitchfork. They act all excited, but you know they'll give the album like a 5.8 and say: DAD ROCK DAD ROCK DAD ROCK DAD ROCK DAD ROCK.

I agree. Pitchfork is a bit biased towards ultra-indie music.. and anything by Radiohead.

Are they suggesting that they will be streaming the album some time before the release date?

That's what I thought when I read it. I hope they do...

I agree. I'm almost having trouble listening to any other live content from the band because the quality of the DVD tracks is great.... But I battle through and enjoy the others still...

Can someone fill me in on the setlist so far? i was at a rehearsal for a musical and just it up

I would like to see a Deluxe YHF, but 15-20 years rather than 10. They can start putting out the deluxe editions once we've gotten at least 2 new albums from the boys.

That's my opinion at least... ha

I am pretty sure they did it at Loolaplooza which was streamed with a live video. There isn't a You Tube of it at the moment, to best of my knowledge. There was a quicktime file of that was uploaded here after the stream but that file has been pulled.

I'm attending the show in Athens and have seats on the balcony. Are these seats good or bad? and about how far back from the stage is the balcony?

Thanks in advance!

Wilko [7H3 41bum]

or

"We promise... This will be better than SBS..."

or

"wilcobama" and all the songs will be mixed with obama speeches like a ton of rap songs do now. jeff and the boys are going gangster....

Dear Ction,

How do the side projects (Loose Fur, Golden Smog, Autumn Defense, etc.) fit into enjoying Wilco on your terms?

Aquarium Drunkard has a brief piece on the new DVD

Here's the link in case anyone wanted to check it out

Sounds like it would be a fun read.

Here's a tale of my experience with disruptive audience members:

At the second night of the 3 Pageant shows, about halfway through the initial set (before the killer encores) a group of rather dirty hippies started dancing RIGHT in front of me. I was too scared to ask them to move for fear of getting mauled, but it really got on my nerves.

I mean don't get me wrong, I have no problem with dancing... but this was waaayy more than just dancing. they were flailing their arms and jumping up and down and blocking my view and so on and it was quite distracting. EX:

nearly ruined the middle of the show for me. but thankfully the spirit of dance took them elsewhere and i was allowed to enjoy the remainder of a great night in peace...

Studio by hundreds of miles.

 

 

EDIT: Ha - I forgot this question was, by virtue of where it was asked, about Wilco. I was answering in general. As far as Wilco, I would vote for a tie. Depends on my mood and the album. AGIB and SBS songs, in particular, are spectacular live even though I'm not entirely sold on the studio albums. But for the previous few records, I definitely prefer the studio versions.

I agree. I think it is entirely based upon the mood I am in. If I want to really rock out, I'll throw in a live recording (usually from the 08 tour). But if I am in a relaxed mood or whatever, the studio is the way to go.

my opinion at least...

It doesnt matter where you start with Wilco. I started with YHF and I love AM too.

What matters is if you like AM.

I completely agree. I started with YHF and picked up AM last summer. It's a great record for long drives and those late night summer drinking binges...
