  1. I'll follow that up - thanks. I do have a solo album of his from about 4 years ago thats got some pretty good stuff and am vaguely aware of Hefner - via John Peel I think. As a member of a music forum I' m not too hardcore when it comes to collecting etc. Not so much time for that sort of thing ... I just kind of bump into music I like ... :-)
  2. Also, i didn't see any official photographers during the first few minutes. They might of been keeping very low down, but is that a change in policy? They can be very distracting (presumably to both sides) so i'm all in favour of it.
  3. care to offer any thoughts on the difference (band or audience) based upon sweeping generalisations and a small sample? I've seen Wilco a few times in europe (I.e. Not UK) and in the past I would have said they were more relaxed. London often has more pressure because of extra media scrutiny and the 'history'. It's been heading this way for some time, but last night felt like a game changer - in a good way.
  4. Good work. Would love to see a show there one day after popping in for a cup of tea with Emmylou. Was surprised how sanitised the surrounding area is though. Where are all the drunk people kicking dogs or beating their spouses? :-)
  5. And whilst we're being all biblical, here's Nels' frozen Christ (on a bike) moments during Late Greats. He kept that pose throughout the build segment :-) Not mine and not condoning the photography you understand. It was nicely mobile phone free all night. Just for those following vicariously far away. And finally, documentary evidence of the second coming. The Very Reverend Sir Nicholas of Lowe
  6. No IATTBYH either, though that is one song I've never tired of hearing. Maybe someone read a few posts here ;-) Ta!
  7. Yes lovely man. I once had a short email exchange with him regarding a song (bit of an obscure b side that they used to do live a few years back) that I wrongly thought might have been inspired by the name of the American manager Thatcher brought in to try and finish off the miners during the strike of 84-85. Difficult times for Guy's family as they had family members in the striking miners and in the police force (there were some nasty confrontations at the time). In the email he said that our conversation reminded him of the case against the man who knocked the head off a recently unveiled s
  8. Was closer to the front tonight. About 6 or 7 standing rows back. Not sure if my experience of a better sound was a result of a change of location or they made some adjustments. Actually prefer this to being right on the barrier. In with the 'action', though as I say, never expected a Wilco show to get quite that uninhibited. Took me back a few years :-) This meant I was also under the brim as far as the hat 'issue' was concerned. JT did remove it a couple of times for some acknowledgement to the crowd. Banter Corner Again sparse and covered by previous correspondent. The crutches moment w
  9. Glad you felt the same as me! This was absolutely joyous. I never thought I'd see a Wilco concert like it. You almost always come away thinking you've witnessed something special in terms of musicianship, some emotional moments, songcraft - all the cerebral stuff that is the compensation for Wilco not quite having the spirit of '77 about them etc. But this was just a total fun sweaty night of jumping around and the crowd being much more than mere spectators. Not a good one for a taping I would have thought - just too much singing, clapping, whooping. You had to be there. The sound was just
  10. Intimate London venue. http://www.clashmusic.com/live-review/ryan-adams-live-at-union-chapel-london Would have liked to be there but it sold out wat too fast. He was on a Songwriters Circle session the other night on BBC with Neil Finn and Janis Ian http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/crowded-stage-neil-finn-ryan-adams-in-foulmouthed-tv-bustup-20111027-1ml3j.html
  11. Just had a curry to load up with carbs for tonight. Leaving in an hour. Meanwhile ... http://www.clashmusic.com/live-review/wilco-live-at-the-roundhouse-london
  12. What was really funny was that at the end, and probably speaking live on hearing the interview back and realising it was a bit ropey, he tried to explain it as feeling giddy and light headed on meeting the great Jeff Tweedy. The reality was he only had the vaguest idea of anything Wilco related.
  13. Yeah. Guy Garvey next time Jeff. Deffo. The songs are nice though. As someone else said, last night would be a shock to anyone going on the basis of those though.
  14. Boy the questions are painful. Just some researcher handed O'Leary a crib sheet a few minutes ago sounds like.
  15. Seems recorded in the real day off during the week to me. JT only going to play a song solo after a little interview (nothing special). Dawn On Me now. Born Alone to follow they say. At least we don't have to sit through much of the show before this started, and I won't be hanging around afterwards.
  16. So "in session" apparently. Ditto Arctic Monkeys. Jonathan Wilson I think.
  17. You're spot on. Nabbed this from elsewhere and looks more accurate than mine. In the words of Eric Morecambe, all the right notes, but not necessarily in the correct order ... 1. Art Of Almost 2. I Might 3. Ashes Of American Flags 4. Bull Black Nova 5. I Am Trying To Break Your Heart 6. One Wing 7. Some Side With The Seeds 8. One Sunday Morning 9. Shouldn't Be Ashamed 10. Born Alone 11. Jesus, Etc 12. Capitol City 13. Handshake Drugs 14. I'm The Man Who Loves You 15. Standing O 16. Impossible Germany 17. Dawned On Me ENCORE 1. Whole Love 2. Shot In The Arm
  18. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b015yc05 Maybe some songs in the studio? No idea if R2 have been playing them much lately. JT on Guy Garvey's show on R6 would be something I'd like to hear. The benefit of a day with nothing else to do in London I guess. Lads, what about all the museums? And its a lovely sunny autumn day. Bit of footie in Hyde Park?
  19. Think I've got all the songs except perhaps one in the encore, but definitely a sketchy order other than they started with AoA ... Head still buzzing, so can spend a few minutes more before coming down and being able to get some kip. Art Of Almost I Might I Am Trying to Break Your Heart One Wing Bull Black Nova Ashes of American Flags Side with the Seeds One Sunday Morning Dawned On Me Jesus, Etc. Capitol City Handshake Drugs Standing O Shouldn't be Ashamed Born Alone Impossible Germany I'm The Man Who Loves You Encore: Whole Love Shot in the Arm A.N.Other So, definitely light on Being T
  20. Ta very much. Will attend to this on the morrow! Meanwhile I have a show review to write ...
  21. The comments on the fight are at the start of this There's a One Sunday Morning video loaded by the same person there too.

  24. Nothing about the rumoured Glasgow kiss in the balcony? Maybe JT didn't make himself clear enough in the sitting versus standing debate.
