He may not have done much on his own in a while, but he's doing just fine as a member of Blue Rodeo: http://www.bluerodeo.com/

They didn't play Hate It Here.

In all the shows I've seen at Massey, including the last 3 Wilco shows, I don't ever recall that being the case. FYI. It does, thanks!

Anyone take a look at the merch table? Were they selling the new album? Any nice posters or new t-shirts? I'm trying to decide how much cash to bring on Saturday.

The order confirmation said to expect them about a month before the show, so I would suspect they'll show up soon.

Hyperbole much? If you think that's true, you: 1) haven't listened to much by the Dead 2) are completely unaware of the entire genre of Jam Bands Either way, run along now.

My God, is it really? I'll have to watch it again. In my defense, I lost a bunch of CDs in a break-in about 5 years back, and I never got around to re-buying AM.

Not sure who it is, but it's definitely not Dulli.

It was. If only I'd been that clever!

Damn. I knew that polka-dot shirt looked familiar!

So RollingStone.com is doing their occasional bit where they tease out images of the next cover and ask people to guess who it might be. Today's clip has me thinking perhaps it's the band? Here's both: http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/08/18/guess-the-next-cover-of-rolling-stone-the-second-hint/ http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/08/17/guess-the-next-cover-of-rolling-stone-the-first-hint Maybe?

Word is a second show will be added on October 15.

I was lucky too, and got Row E, but, I'm not at all surprised that it sold out that quickly. This is the first Wilco presale I've participated in, but I work for a company the operates websites for a vast list of bands and musicians, and our presales often sell out pretty much instantly. You have to keep in mind that hundreds of people were likely attempting to get tickets at the same time, and that bands usually get 10% or less of the house to sell. Chin up though, there's still Ticketmaster on Friday. I'm sure you'll get good seats.

Yup. Fantastic show.

Did you really just include albums by the Decemberists and Fugazi in a list with Dylan, Miles and the Beatles? I'm a fan of both, but WOW.

What's he written since then that you thinks deserves a spot?

I picked this up on the weekend and have enjoyed working my way through it. There are a few Talking Heads songs on the list actually, though I can't recall what they are right now (I think "Born Under Punches" is one of them). I found it interesting to note that, according to this list, Prince is the best songwriter of the last 30 years: He's the only songwriter with 5 tracks on the list (4 by him and Sinead O'Connor's cover of "Nothing Compares 2 U").

It was this very performance, part of the annual Much Music special Snow Job, that made me a fan. I remember that Sunday afternoon well.

Still waiting! Music Today sucks ballz.

Though a Wilco book would be nice at some point, you might notice that very few of these books are about albums that are less than a decade old, as the editor of the series appears to be of the mind that there needs to be some distance from the release, to allow for the full import of an album to reveal itself. Which means you might have a bit of a wait on a Summerteeth or YHF tome.

And I, for one, hated the Neutral Milk Hotel book. Can't believe it took her three years to get that piece of shit done.

Not sure how hi-res you're looking for, but try here

What about the one on Kicking Television?

If only that were true. I'm in Toronto and I'm still waiting. I called Musictoday tonight to ask about it and I was told that Canadians should expect their orders within 24 business days of when it was shipped. Which puts delivery at June 14. When you factor in the exchange and shipping, I've paid nearly twice as much for this album as if I had run around the corner to buy it at my local record store. And this is the result of trying to support the band directly? Wilco Inc. should be ashamed of itself for aligning with a company that thinks this is good service.
