  1. Close...technically my fave would probably be "The Whole Love", but "Wilco (The Album)" is most likely my second fave, & I've said, more than a few times here, "Sky Blue Sky" would take the bronze...clearly I have a penchant for the recent Wilco works...but...and this is HUGE...honestly it's splitting hairs for me...like, as I've also said many times before here...trying to choose a favorite album for The Beatles starting with "Rubber Soul"...I might say that I'd take "Being There" by a little over "A.M." (with the "Mermaid Avenue" sessions albums sitting around the "Being There"/"A.M." le

  4. So wrong, it's right!! Behold the wonder of the Zen reversal... And just a little perspective...I tend to think of opinions as just different, not right or wrong...
  5. Hmmmm...don't think it's silly, just think that's how subjective opinions work. I could as easily say, with shock, that just because you like them that makes them, "one of the GREATEST artists in modern music, By FAR..."?!?!. But I'm sure it does, and well it should. For the record, I stated "I think"...meaning it's something subjective & personal...something I think, or I feel...not something I'm trying, by any means, to make some unequivocal statement/pronouncement/judgement from on high here about for all to follow, at all. That said, I've tried with Radiohead, repeatedly...and I may a
  6. You know it's not that I hate Radiohead, or anything like that...but...although I know artists I love & admire, like The Flaming Lips & Jeff Tweedy solo, have covered songs of theirs...I have to say that I can find some good songs, but none that blow me away & not a single album that I'd call anything more than good...sooooooooooooo...I can say that not only do I think that they are the most overrated band in the world, I'll go a step further than that & say that I think they are the single most overrated artists in the history of modern music!! By far...
  7. It took late night coffee to get me through it...thankfully I don't have clients at my acupuncture practice tomorrow until 2:30 (but then I'm triple, or quadruple overbooked- good problem to have I guess & it allowed me to burn the midnight oil tonight!)...so I got to catch it all...& nice to see "Wilco Me" on the message board at re-broadcast time as well...all in all...what a gas, gas, gas!
  8. Wilco's pretty close to full length set (NOT Festival length set like in Belgium the night before) is just about to be Re-Broadcast...it's about 11:45 here on the east coast & I just saw The Cribs being re-broadcast...Wilco is up next on Stage #3 (Bravo-India) & will start at 12:30 a.m. est!! http://www.youtube.com/lowlands Here's my earlier post from the "After The Show" section here in the thread "Wilco -- 08/19/12, Lowlands Festival, Biddinghuizen, Netherlands": WOW!! Sorry for those who missed this one, as it was streamed live via youtube~ It was a much longer show today than yeste
  9. WOW!! Sorry for those who missed this one, as it was streamed live via youtube~ It was a much longer show today than yesterday's streamed online "festival" set from Belgium, & it was truly brilliant, as usual. I think they had close to 2 hours to play with...and chose to barrel through with only one encore & max. out as best they could with 25 songs. A usual full show, as of late, has been 27 songs and 2 & 1/4 hours long. They did 16 out of the 17 songs they did yesterday ("Misunderstood" is the only one done in Belgium, but not tonight), as well as 9 different additional song toni

  17. ? Hmmmm...I got the original news from here... http://viachicago.or...estival-stream/ I hope they are, but I don't know...I'll tune in just in case...& will watch later today... I'm thinking that the list on youtube is just a sampling...it appears that you can tune into any of the three stages...so Wilco is apparently on the Bravo/India Stage...but they might not be broadcasting all three, all the time...will have to wait & find out tomorrow...
  18. Wilco is streaming live this weekend from two festivals. WILCO! Streaming live online from two Norther European Festivals this weekend. They're likely to play slightly abbreviated "festival length sets" (90 min. & 18 songs vs. 175 min. & 27 songs), but it's still the greatest band in the world, live & in the moment. TODAY, Sat. Aug. 18th is at 3:50 est from Belgium & the Pukkelpop Festival at: http://www.skynet.be...pukkelpop-2012/ And tomorrow is at 2:30 est, from the Netherlands & the Lowlands Festival, on the Bravo & India Stage, at: http://www.youtube.com/lowlands N
  19. Another great shirt from the Archive series!! My friend John wore this beauty to the Rochester Highland Bowl show this year. I think I'm actually gonna have to order this one!! I also heard back & for right now the plan is to only do shirts... From "The Late Greats" songs lyric it's...Wilco Presents The Kay-Settes starring Butcher's Blind!! http://wilco.kungfus...-t-shirt-wil522 The Kay-Settes T-shirt (WIL522) Back from the store archives - an outstanding 100% cotton, gold t-shirt featuring the unknown superstars, The Kay-Settes. Made in USA
  20. Thanks!! That's 3:50 p.m. est for us here in New York State! With enough notice to make it happen...and on the 50th anniversary of the true birth of The Beatles- the day Ringo Starr, formally & finally joined the band!!
  21. The Beatles, Wilco & Paul Simon all instantly spring to mind, as do Yo La Tengo & The Flaming Lips & Donna The Buffalo...& some great later career work from Tom Waits, Lucinda Williams, Bob Dylan & Paul McCartney as well...There are loads of artists who've done great later career work...
  22. Right you are (as usual)! The only non-festival date on this little European swing...so 23 songs now goes from being "Hey 23 songs for a festival set ain't too shabby..." to "You know they've generally be doing 27 songs and 2 & 1/4 hours long shows here..." ... I say that half-jokingly, as I'm sure there's wiggle room with how amped, or tired, they are, & where they've got to get to next (travel time, sleep time, etc.), etc..
  23. Hey 23 songs for a festival set ain't too shabby...and you got the great "Bull Black Nova"!!!- thus signaling the return of songs from "Wilco (The Album)" at long, longer, longest last...though this is the first European set list we've seen thus far...
