  1. thank you for posting both of these. I finally got the chance to listen to it last night. I think I really enjoy the horns as a nice addition, they are not over bearing in the slightest. It would be a welcome addition to the studio version which i'm sure is going to be immaculate! Each version of Walken since they begining has become more tightly knit and better executed...

     

    me = excited

  2. Was wondering if some kind soul wouldnt mind posting the version of Walken (with the horn section)? I'd be very greatful to hear it. I was also wondering if there is any speculation of wether this is how the studio version will be? It doesn't strike me that wilco would randomly add horns to one of their songs. In the past which songs live have had horns added to them? "I'm The Man Who Loves You", and "Monday" jump immediatley to mind. Which both contain horns on the studio version....however I feel as if they have possibly performed "hummingbird" and "California Stars" with horns. If so my theory is immediatley shattered. I will stop rambling.

     

    thank you in advance.

  3. I saw him in Septmeber (the last leng of the prior tour, before he played songs from Modern Times) and it was pretty amazing. He was really on! The song selection was somewhat contrived with a few interesting twists. The band is solid and all the crowds i've seen are really into the shows. I don't know if you've seen him before I've seen him 4 times since '99 and 3 of the shows were fantastic and 1 was lack luster. If you're a big Dylan fan you will leave the show feeling great, it's magic!!

  4. I saw Jenny Lewis last weekend and was intrigued because they played 4 or 5 new compositions that were absolutley fantastic. I'm wondering what's going to happen to it especially since Rilo Kiley is at work on a new studio album....one of her song possibly make it to another b-side if they choose to release another single? Will they be exiled to an EP? possibly live EP? internet download only? Scraped for the time being and saved for another solo album after the new rilo album...?

     

    speculation welcome...

  5. let me reinstate my position. I use to smoke 2 or 3 times a week if not more during the school year august - may, now that i'm out i've only been doing it a couple of times a month. Last weekend I smoked a little bit on a friday night and a on saturday night. I need a drug test for my job giving me roughly 2 weeks since I last smoked. I have been drinking about 8 bottles of water a day if not more, as well as ocasionally drinking green tea and yesterday and for the rest of the week I plan to run on the treadmill for 20 mins. I am 5'10 and about 215 pounds. Will this and this alone put me in the clear?

  6. as lame as some people may find this thread, I am looking for sturdy first hand accounts. I just applied to my first REAL post college job recently and not thinking the reaction time so quickly have already been called for a phone interview. I'm a regular weed smoker, 2 or 3 times a week (this summer living with my parents has reduced its frequency at large rate) and at a concert unthinkingly I smoked last weekend and put my resume in monday.

     

    i recieved a phone interview (today) thursday early evening (4:30 PM) my resume is getting passed on to the person in charge of hiring. so I don't think i'll be called about an interview till monday or tuesday. which i'm sure I can push back the actual interview to thursday or firday hopefully with a drug test to follow after that. Which would leave me with about 2 weeks THC free.

     

    I'm assuming its a urine test. And i was just looking for first hand accounts here of products or methods people used that actually worked. because i'm already a dumbass and I don't wanna screw this up anymore it's quite important.....

     

     

    any help would be tremendous.

  7. Been reading alot about this album and am very interested. I'm not too familiar with Miss Lynn myself I was wondering if some people would be kind enough to share their reactions.

     

     

    Could someone post "portland oregon" as well from the album? (or is that against regulations here?)

     

     

    my many thanks!

  8. does anyone know any background details of stephen malkmus? I'm interested if he studied to become an architect in college? Or is he just interested in it? I find it engaging that it comes up in 3 songs that I can think of off the top of my head.

     

    -Grave Architecture (From Wowee Zowee)

     

    -Fin (From Brighten The Corners):

    "Open call for prison architects"

     

    -The Hexx (From Terror Twilight):

    "Architecture students are like virgins

    with an itch they cannot scratch,

    Never build a building till you're 50

    what kind of life is that?"

     

    anymore that I might have missed?
