  1. Great show with several songs that don't get on a lot of set lists. Looking forward to Saturday's show!
  2. Not an unreleased song, but Tweedy's acoustic version of "Panthers" is pretty sweet and it would be awesome if there was a studio version of the song in that style. A good live version of it is in his 5-16-03 solo show (Track #3)
  3. I thoroughly enjoy "On and On and On" as well. And "Everlasting Everything" gets way too much crap, probably because its tone is as directly cathartic and optimistic as any Wilco song ever gets. People might want to burn down my house for this, but my least favorite Wilco song is actually "A Shot in the Arm." That's not saying that I hate or even thoroughly dislike that song, because I listen to every Wilco album from beginning to end, as they're meant to be listened to. But that song is the one I'm least likely to sing along to for whatever reason. Given that Wilco has recorded probab
  4. I agree that Common Sense is an awesome song....after another day of listening to the album, I feel even stronger about how these tunes have quickly caught my ear despite their complexity and lyrical tone. Common Sense has a Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Demo feel to it, with all the chaos/noise and perhaps a (seemingly) out of tune instrument or two, that only Wilco can pull off in making it come across as chaotically-unified. It honestly reminds me a lot of the early demo for I Am Trying to Break Your Heart. @Grasshopper Greensnake--I hope they play it live a lot too, but Jeff said in a recent in
  5. After several listens to the whole album, I'd have to say that I'm definitely enjoying the album thoroughly. There is a lot of subtle depth to the songs, both musically and lyrically. On a whole, it reminds me a lot of the softer side of John Lennon's solo work, although it doesn't get quite as weird as Lennon did (which is a good thing in my opinion). "Happiness" was a very pleasant surprise. "Common Sense" definitely stands out as the strangest and most experimental track on the record, and it has a trippy catchiness to it similar to some of the cuts on AGIB. Honestly, as a whole, it
  6. We were down in Section 106, not far from the pit. Within the first few minutes of sitting down, we saw Glenn come out and greet what looked to possibly be his parents and several other likely family members. Immediately after that, we saw Spencer greeting tons of people and was taking several of them backstage. It looked like pretty much the entire pit section was all band friends and family, so that would be a pretty good-sized party right there.
  7. Just wanting to put out there that Jeff did clarify tonight that they never said that there wouldn't be any repeats or that they were going to play every song they recorded and/or put on an album. That said, the show tonight kicked some major ass.
  8. I highly recommend Fringe, and of course I highly recommend Wilco
