  1. Impossible germany... This version is much better than the one on my ipod.
  2. handshake...my five yr. old loves to sing "i was chewing gum...yea... yea... yea..." she loves gum.
  3. Man...they sound great!! Can't wait until next Friday in Champaign!!
  4. radio cure...interesting choice for an opener...
  5. Seen Wilco several times but this is my first JT solo show. Any idea on when the doors will open?
  6. Based on when these shows for the solo dvd were recorded (early 2006), I'm pretty sure that TTTIG had only been played live a couple of times. Being a relatively new song, I'd bet that JT thought that the audience wasn't familiar with it.
  7. Foellinger: Section SEC 2, Row C, Seats (7)
  8. My sister and a co-worker mentioned TMBG have a couple/few kids records out.
  9. From what I recall the ST demos contained fewer keyboards and synths, then again I haven't listened to them in some time (i.e., downloaded them 1.5 to 2 yrs ago).
  10. Not too bad. Never heard Jay sing better, although I still hear everything and the kitchen sink.
  11. thanks, will have to pick this up.
  12. Great site!! Listening to it now. A colleague sent me the link ~two weeks ago. It's free!! Type in a song or band name and it's... six degrees of separation. Started w/ husker du then to my dad is dead to the local division.... edit ...to gang of four
  13. Always intended to pick a couple of Public Enemy records but never did.
  14. Love the new material and can't wait until the new record is released. No doubt about it - I'll be one of those fans who buys it on the Tuesday it's released. That all said, I've always wondered how the process works. What comes first - the chord progression (music) or lyrics? After listening to a slew of old Wilco and new Wilco shows over the last few days, I'm convinced we've seen a change in the band. Old Wilco - raw live performances and very polished (perhaps over produced) records. New Wilco - very intricate, more reversed live sound (almost orchestral) with TO BE DETERMINE
  15. Amen, brother!! My 5-yr old loves it when I pay this song. She even sings along "we can make it bettter"....
  16. Like others, I went thru a Dead period and had a bunch of their records (studio and live). Honestly, I always thought the Dead's studio stuff kinda sucked - sorry. The bootlegged and live stuff was where it was at. Sorry, some bands just don't translate well in the studio, and the Dead was one of those bands. I had American Beauty and Workingman's Dead on a long play cassette (front and back) and practically wore it out. Classic Dead songs. Edit... ditto (literally)
  17. You kick cigarettes and drugs, don't drink anymore, start running of all things, and surround yourself with what you consider to be the best band mates that you've ever been associated with. Generally, I think it could be said that those are what most would consider to be positive atttibutes in one's life. Also, you're approaching 40 and maybe putting things in perspective, gaining some wisdom, etc. Hell, I see life much differently at 33 than I did even 5 years ago or before my daughter was born. All that said, I've never written a song in my life, but I gotta believe that if my life were
  18. In discussing songwriting, somebody famous once suggested "write about what you know." So you're having the time of your life, I would guess that you might what sing about that or those feelings might be in there somewhere. If not, I'd call that "masturbation". Face it folks, the dark days are gone.
  19. Prior to Wilco, wasn't Mike a sound engineer at Soma (a Chicago studio)? I thought Nels and Pat were the ones not from Chi-town?
