it's going to be 80+ all week, dude.

indirectly responsible for innocent people dying? yes.

 

 

were they individually pre-mediated? he'd list under collateral damage, i'm sure.

Same as drones, no?

A presidential pardon is immunity from any charges, past or future, at the discretion of the president.

 

I agree that it would stain their reputation, but these assholes would wear it like a badge of honor. Did anyone see Cheney on Fox last night? Despicable, unrepentant, arrogant & evil. Can't wait for that man to die in the most painful way possible. Really.

What should he be repentant for?

What's a CD?

Don't underestimate Obama.

No, they will never play it.

No offense, but I've never understood wanting to see them play other popular one off covers. I've been going to the Tweedy solo benefit shows every year and I always get annoyed when people request stuff like Radiohead, Zeppelin, Beatles, etc instead of a sweet Wilco/Tweedy song. It's not like they don't have a huge back catalogue to choose from!

Amen

Have they done video webcasts before?

We need a Wilco webcast of another show. Perhaps the final night? hint...hint

Didn't they already do this? Night 2?

Wasn't it unreal? And yes, all 6 nights will be roadcases. You can preorder now. A total steal at $9 a show.

Why do you know so much?

Rauner!

Well, the problem is not only that we've already heard it all. The problem is that some of us have already bought everything. I mean, I've bought YHF, then I bought it again (the australian tour edition, which wasn't neither cheap or easy, from Paris), I've bought all the soundtracks, comps, tributes and benefit CDs to get the likes of "Old Maid" (superb), Let Me come Home (fabulous) or Any Major Dude (marvelous), I've bought the CD singles and all the extended editions etc. of every album, having already bought the initial releases. And I'm not talking about vinyl editions (which I bought).

And I already have compiled my own "rarities" playlist with the EXACT SAME SONGS on it (except it includes the Whole love bonuses as well). It still is gonna be a beautiful release, but it's a little bit annoying. At the same time, maybe it's exactly what this is all about : not forcing the most dedicated fans to buy it by putting three unreleased songs on it. If we already have everything, maybe we shouldn't bother. After all, we won't feel compelled to buy the "best of" set…

 

And maybe that's the most annoying thing, here : I don't have any good reason to buy this set, except that it's gonna be a tremendous frustration if I don't…

Annoying? Really? I don't get you people.

I hope I win that damned guitar. I've been trying for 6 or 8 years to win a wilco guitar at this point, dang it!

Which is it? 6 or 8?

Prolly assassinate Putin

I will agree that I enjoy watching videos of hot men dumping ice cold water on themselves whether they donate money or not.

 

 

However, I do find this whole thing sort of annoying and reminiscent of some large scale sort of pubescent "all the cool kids are doing it" peer pressure. Clever they have tapped into that insecurity, both with this campaign and that no make-up breast cancer meme.

 

Why not give to charity without calling so much attention to ourselves?

 

And anyway, I have other pressing concerns for my charity budget right now, like the UNRWA fund. Who wants to do some cutesy water dumping meme for some refugee kids dying in war zones? FUN! I wonder if the ALS charity it is going to will just use the money to pay themselves first, like most other charities. I'd like to see some transparency.

 

I'll have you know I disliked this campaign from day one, and have not "grown tired" of it, but rather annoyed from the very start. Bah humbug.

Sounds like you could use a cold shower at the very least.

Funny or Die? I choose Die.
