Muzzle of Bees You are my Face One Wing

You Are My Face Shot in the Arm One Wing Via Chicago CA Stars Poor Places> Spiders

Is it too early to start wondering if/when the annual benefit shows will be at the Vic? Anyone have any inside information?

This song never disappoints in concert. I love when guitar work throughout the song especially when Jeff and Pat play off each other. I thought I read somewhere that the song was about how -ucked up some of the things Germany and Japan did during WW2 and that it is kind of an example that anything is possible and that no country/or person is immune to doing crazy shit if left unchecked.

These should be announced soon (assuming he is doing them)? Right?

Has anyone had any difficulty getting the downloads from their iTunes to their iPods? For some reason, when I sync my iPod, the show doesn't come over to the iPod? any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is impossible but here goes. I think since I haven't overplayed the newer ones yet, they may be higher on my list. 10-One Wing 9-Bull Black Nova 8-War on War 7-You are my Face 6-Art of Almost 5-Handshake Drugs 4-One Sunday Morning 3-Impossible Germany 2-Via Chicago 1-Spiders

Amazing show! I have no idea how they will be able to top that show. Mavis was a complete surprise to me. I think it's so cool how the band can share the spotlight with its heros. Can't wait to see them tonight!!

What's the deal with these pre-sales? Will I need a password to buy tickets? If so, where can I find the password? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

"The ash tray says, you were up all night"

Ok, since these shows aren't posted on the Wilco website, I am not sure how to request songs for the shows. Let's make those requests here, even if there is a .00002% chance that our requests make it to Jeff. I only have one request: Bull Black Nova The song is epic, I have no idea how it would sound on the acoustic, it might not sound good at all. However, that is what I thought about Spiders, and Jeff's acoustic redition of Spiders is pretty awesome in my opinion.

One Wing is an absolute masterpiece.

I liked the album a lot. How come Bull Black Nova doesn't get more attention? I think that song is brilliant.

I forgot to mention Jeff's best quote of the night after he was having trouble with the Late Greats and tuning his guitar. He said, "Rahm is much more prepared to be mayor than I am for this show, which isn't saying much." I bet there were some Rahm supporters there that had never heard of Jeff and weren't impressed considering he stopped mid way through the Late Greats. Little do they know that they were watching one of the best (if not best) singer/songwriters playing today.

I live 2 blocks from the Park West, so I decided to go at the last minute as well. Apparently, Rahm introduced the best "band" in Chicago not realizing that Wilco wasn't about to take the stage. Rahm mentioned how great the "band" was a few different times in his intro. Clearly, Rahm is not that familiar with Jeff's work and has no idea how amazing Jeff is. So, Jeff opened by saying, "it's just me." The political rhetoric was at a minimum, maybe 3 minutes in all. Jeff played for about 50 minutes, and I think 10 of those minutes he spent tuning his guitar. Or the tuning was some sort of

I'm actually for Rahm. I just figured if he plays at the Vic, the shows will be longer (no other acts), on a fri or sat, and a ticket will be $50ish as opposed to $85.

Is this concert still going to happen?

Is it safe to assume Jeff will still be doing 2 charity shows considering he is playing the Rahm fundraiser? Or will the fundraiser be my only chance to see Jeff in Chicago for awhile? I don't want to drop 85 bucks to see a limited show if I know he will be playing another show or 2 in the near future.

It must be quite an honor to be on the same list as Brittany Spears and kelly Clarkson.

I assume he will be, but was just wondering if anyone out there had some inside information so I can plan accordingly. Thanks in advance.

I know Jeff likes to leave many songs to his listener's interpretation, but has anyone heard him speak to what this song is about? This is one of my favorite Wilco songs (I realize I just alienated half the memebers of this board by making that claim)and I have some thoughts on what it means to me but have no idea what it means to Jeff. Spiders (Kidsmoke) Spiders are singing in the salty breeze Spiders are filling out tax returns Spinning out webs of deductions and melodies On a private beach in Michigan Why can't they wish their kisses good Why do they miss when their kisses should

I just registered to this forum recently but have visited the site for years. Anyways, I was wondering if there is a spot on the forum that discusses the meanings behind the lyrics to Jeff's/Wilco's writing? I tried using the search tool but didn't find much. I know there are other web sites out there; but I thought the best place to discuss Wilco lyrics would be on a forum that is devoted to the band. Thanks in advance and I am sorry if I am overlooking where to find this information on the forum.

It was a great show but Jeff was not there. When Mavis mentioned his name the first time, the place erupted with cheers. I saw Pat there, he was sporting a huge beard and I am pretty sure I saw Mikael as well. It was cool to see Mavis, and I am sure many of the people there would not have been there had Jeff not produced her last record. It's pretty awesome that she got a lot of new fans this late in her career, she is truely an amazing performer!

I was just curious if anyone has any insider information that would brighten my day.

Does anyone know if Jeff will be playing a couple songs with mavis on Sat. night?
