Man I wish I had a money tree...

Anybody else see the little blurb in the recent Time magazine? Thought it was surprising as they had been mentioned in the same section in Time a few weeks back.

I'm not quite sure whether to post this here or in the "You know you are obsesed with all things Wilco" thread. So I finally upgraded my hamster-wheel powered PC tonight and towards the end of the purchase the salesman tried to sell us on some new speakers. His sales pitch included bringing up a Youtube video of Journey. (Not a strong selling ponit for my husband). So, I suggested that if he played Wilco I might consider it. So, for 10 minutes "You are My Face" was playing loud and clear over 3 computer screens. (It was the only one I could think of in the spur of the moment). The sale

Seems to be working better now - thanks!

I'm I the only better half that now likes Wilco more than my husband? He first heard of them in 1997 and has been a big fan ever since. I met my husband in 1999 and Wilco is probably the only music we both really like. He even told me yesterday that I perhaps listen to Wilco too much!

Ok - I've had this on my chest for a while. When the Neil Young/Wilco/Everest tour was annouced, Wilco was only for Eastern Canada/United States. But not Newfoundland, where my husband and I were both raised and still have family/baby-sitters. Sigh. We currently reside in Edmonton, but Neil was only playing in Calgary (3 hour drive/hotel/babysitter). Plus we really wanted to see Wilco so we compromised on Montreal, as we had family there with a recent new addition, other family who offered to baby-sit our 2 little kids, and a free place to crash. After a multitude of redeemed airmiles, a

Since the upgrade, I can log on without a problem. But when I chose a forum to view I am prompted to sign in again - which I do. It bumps me back to the begininng screen - where I chose a forum again and again it prompts me to login. I seem to be stuck in a loop? Please help! (Only problematic in Just a Fan - this forum actually allowed me to post - thankfully)

Actually, I just tried and again and got the same negotiating message, walked away and after about 15 minutes it suddenly came on! So I guess you just have to try really late at night and be really patient...

Same here...

We finally received ours on Monday night (nice start to the week!). International shipping takes a while longer. Have watched it 4 times already!

the synchroed bass line/guiter bit before the first chorus in Old Man. The bass solo in Hey Joe, coupled with the singing in the background. I also love the the bass line to Handshake Drugs, it just fits the song and lyrics so perfectly. But I married a bass player so I've been trained to pick up on these things. He always gets ticked off when the bass player doesn't get noticed as much!

Time for some Western Canadian dates... and a small Newfoundland gig if they have the time! I hate being so far away from home...

Right now I find myself listening to Kicking Television over and over - I really miss them in concert! The studio albums just don't seem to cut it for some reason...

Personally. I'd like them to play Newfoundland again. They did the Snow Job gig there in 96 (?) and seemed to have a great time. I was hoping that the Neil Young tour would bring them there, but alas, it started in Halifax (as most Canadian tours do). The Rock had drawn some big names as of late, so I was kind of disappointed. Much more so when I found out that Neil Young and Everest were doing a show in St. John's in April (minus Wilco).

I'm just hoping for a middle of June release date - then my husband might remember my birthday for once.

When my daughter was 3 she had a fascination with a live perforamnce clip of You are my Face from Youtube. One day, at the end of the song, she said Mommy - that's silly - books don't fit into phones! So, let's just say she is not quite ready for HMD quite yet... She also thought Jeff's first name was giraffe - "he's not very tall Mommy!" We have since passed our Wilco wisdom unto our 9 year old niece back east. Last week for show and tell she took the Wilco shirt, badge and CD's we gave her for Christmas and her teacher actually played Just a Kid and all the kids and the teacher got
