what exactly is this...? My friend told me she was a member of Second City and that she could by tickets to the Jeff Tweedy portion, but I'm not sure if she knows what she's talking about. Can anyone prove her right please haha, because I'll be in Chicago that day and I've been wanting to see a solo show since I first discovered them in 07. Yeah, I'm a newcomer I suppose.

Would like to see an AM, Being There, rough Uncle Tupelo fusion album.
It won't happen though, I really think Wilco is happy where it's at. Unless by some random act of God, Jeff and Stiratt breakup, I see an immensely dark album. The darkest and saddening album any one man could construct. We all know that won't happen though, because God loves Wilco
-
is anyone keeping up with this? Apparently you can buy beatles albums for 4 bucks!!! They have a lawsuit against them, but they have a copyright on these apparent "new sound recordings"

I don't know why I enjoy taking pictures at concerts I just do. I guess it doesn't matter to me because I only take pic's during the songs I don't really care for. And as for being a jerk with a camera it slightly doesn't bother me because I'm already tall to begin with and I'm sure I've already ruined some aspect of the concert for the people behind me.
It sucks being the jerk at the concert. Maybe camera's at concerts are imperfect mediums, however that's only an opinion that Tweedy loves to express. Lately I've been using my camera for shows rarely and I'm not going to lie, you tend to get more engrossed in the show, but to me, it's not really that much more because I'm always leaving the show talking about the songs and the way it was played, the gestures, attitudes of the crowd and band, and I like to look at photos I've taken to trigger those concert events even though I don't need to.
The most I had to wait for a band was Rage Against the Machine at Voodoo Fest and that was only because of the amount of compaction, tugging, pushing, and elbowing that occurred for the hour long wait. I was drenched in sweat that wasn't my own. Terribly awesome stuff
-
I didn't picture them being heavy enought to open for Wolfmother. He's a dead ringer for George in the pictures I have seen.
no they weren't, and that night was a little odd considering they spent a good chunk of their time during the Austin Stubbs show to fix their blown out amp. They were really confused that night. Good ole Harrison. Sean Lennon is pretty aight too, saw him at The Parish in Austin a few years back.
-
Dhani Harrison, son of George Harrison, opens up for Wolfmother in his weird little band "thenewno2". I don't know what this beatle thread is but it somehow relates to the Beatles although it's a flight down the Beatle Tree. They weren't that great btw.

Okay I was experiencing the Wilco Book and came across a picture of Thax. I'm not sure, but I think I saw him in Austin this past Wednesday for a show at Waterloo and Emo's with headliner Sea Wolf. I was just wondering if he's on this forum.
The book is all over the place, but i do enjoy it.
-
haha wth? I always wanted to experience a death metal band, I think that's what they classify as, but I'm sure I wouldn't survive in the front. I would like to see Danzig though seeing how he'll be in Austin next weekend. wooo Dethklok and Metalacalypse
-
This is not a great live Wilco song, is it? I still think it's better left for solo shows.
well those that will probably never get a chance to attend a Jeff Tweedy solo show, I happen to have got some sort of enjoyment out of it. A taste of his solo show.
-
...yeah, from what I could tell. I had a guy pass out right in front of me during the song and it was a BIT distracting.
so that was the culprit the EMS guy was looking for? Haha thanks to him, Tweedy bartered with a crowd member sportin' the golden lame. Awesome.
oh yeah favorite live song...hmmmmm....I always request Forget the Flowers because I fancy that song a lot, but from what I've experienced, I'm gonna choose ...
Handshake Drugs and Cars Can't Escape (played it in Dallas woooohoooo)

A little off topic but does anybody else here get mad when you are in a record store and you're thumbing through looking for Uncle Tupelo albums and there might be 1 but there's like 50 Uncle Cracker CDs? I always think to myself how messed up this world can be.
It's because everyone is buying the UT cds and no one dares to touch the Uncle Cracker concoctions
-
did someone say.....gold shirt...i'm not one to hold back....
however, i did tape "cars can't escape" because I had to, but I don't know if I should upload that sucker. The world isn't ready.
-
is this what this forum is about. I thought this was a travel agency.......ugh
-
ugh, Being There is the one vinyl I've been waiting for. Delayed twice already, my head is about to explode. I guess it'll be that much sweeeter when I do find it in stores.

"it's all been done before..."

Wilco makes the album
release is 2012
wilco saves world
still, world is not convinced of their greatness
wilco destroys world
the new album will probably feature the talents of glenn and nels more. pssshhh yah right, just produce a mix of Being There, AGIB, and a dash of YHF and it'll be amazing. I feel like Wilco created puzzle pieces and YHF is just one huge mammoth, but it could get better.
WTA seemed like a rehash of SBS, which is okay in my book, but not the usual. I'm just glad they made it to texas yet again.

Since this is my fantasy - anything can come true:
Americana Revival Tour
Lucero
DBT
Jayhawks
Whiskeytown (Reunion)
Wilco (with special guest Jim Ryan from Blood Oranges)
I'm gonna see Lucero at Fun Fun Funfest in Austin, wooo! Lucero, to me, is Uncle Tupelo without a Tweedy. I guess it's Son Volt then...
-
what if Wilco treated opening bands like song requests? I really see a lot of flaws in that wish, because in all honesty, I'd just be going to see Nels shred, Glenn drum, Pat constantly be switching from guitar to keyboard, John pluckin' pedaling his foot, Michael alone in the back tearing up the keys, and Jeff just being the entertainer that he his. I rambled... Could be interesting to see though...
-
Sometimes I just wish the perfect concert would hit my town. I've seen Wilco thrice only and have to say each one got better progressively. Liam Finn is a great artist who did a fantastic job in the Fall 09 tour, but I have to wonder sometimes what would be the best bill known to "me". If I could have it my way it'd probably be
Delta Spirit and Wilco or
Spoon and Wilco
Dr. Dog and Wilco
Elvis Perkins and Wilco
That's just me though and here's to wishing thinking
-
i'll have to agree, haha I just think it's funny to see a band sing about another band. Could be a stunt to persuade people to buy something that has "wilco" on it. Damn them, they got me to post an idiotic topic on it.
