  1. excellent set!!!! finally sat down & watched it.
  2. some great mick taylor guitar on that record
  3. i found this. can't remember if allowed to post here. moderator: if inappropriate, apologies & please delete. http://kigonjiro.com/2019/06/17/wilco-paradiso-amsterdam-2019-mkv-720p/
  4. he was larger than life, didn't need fiction.
  5. upon reflection, with the exception of the actual performances, the whole thing is a giant p*ss take. & hilarious! i can just see bob & scorcese giggling like school boys when they were planning this. the whole kiss thing, sharon stone, lucas tanner for God's sake! most of the performances are stellar. i'm not huge on joan baez but she's fantastic in this. any chance to see mick ronson playing is a treat. bob is just intense when performing. i'll have to watcht this again.
  6. i'm with you. i'm hit & miss on bruce nowadays. this is a home run & awesome that it's out just before he turns 70. gives hope for some other bands who haven't put much music out in past few decades but keep promising it.
  7. the new springsteen record is a stunner. here's a nice write up about it from patterson hood: http://read.tidal.com/article/patterson-hood-western-stars
  8. for those of you who haven't seen this, it is a must read. by the grace of God this doesn't affect Wilco but it is a cautionary tale. www.nytimes.com/2019/06/11/magazine/universal-fire-master-recordings.html
  9. Another great one gone. Going to the red temple to offer up a prayer for him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=F7aLXehSXAo
  10. after not receiving any emails from REMHQ for years, there has been a fair amount of activity lately. this is a good thing!
  11. meet the new boss, same as the old boss....
  12. Jeff's headlining a new festival by the folks who used to have the Sasquatch Festival. I'm sure it will be ok but I can't do festivals due to health issues. & it's spendy. Lowball $95. https://www.seattlepi.com/entertainment/music/article/music-fest-Thing-Sasquatch-Port-Townsend-PNW-13785823.php
  13. Shawn passed away on April 5 from diabetes complications at age 53. He was a musician's musician in Seattle. Also played a big part on "Black Love" by Afghan Whigs. 1 of my favorite records of all time. April 5 has bad mojo for Seattle music. Kurt, Layne & now Shawn all died on that day. He will be missed.
  14. how about those Mariners! best start in franchise history. i'm dumbfounded.
  15. footage is up on the cure fan forum. the transcript of trent reznor's induction speech is up multiple places. very heartfelt & emotional. reports from people who were there said robert appeared moved by it. i watched the cure set on youtube & they sounded amazing. starting the set with "shake dog shake" was awesome!
  16. the cure induction was stellar. trent's speech, robert's speech & the band's set. they did the whole thing right.
  17. Mariners lead baseball by 2 games. i'm not going out & buying world series tickets quite yet...
  18. love that trent reznor is inducting the cure. i'm sure he will do a fine job. david bowie is smiling somewhere.
  19. stumbled over this whilst internet surfing this morning. every song played on "ghost" tour (-1). nice! https://themidnightcafe.org/2019/03/15/lossless-bootleg-bonanza-wilco-a-ghost-is-born-tour-compilation/
  20. i was listening to Summerteeth yesterday on the way to work. i have a pretty decent stereo in the car. i still love this record, probably a tie with YHF & Ghost for my favorite Wilco record (not counting live stuff). i was struck by the drums. Ken was a decent drummer & really nice guy but very meat & potatoes on the drums. i can see why Jeff moved on. would love to hear at least some of this record redone in the studio with Glenn on drums. a pipe dream obviously.
  21. RIP Andy. Wasn't in the Cure a long time but it was a crucial period. Great drummer. Also played with Iggy Pop, Peter Gabriel & many others. RIP
  22. newsflash from MAGA country https://sports.yahoo.com/cowboy-pinball-game-leaves-spectators-shocked-participant-unconscious-kentucky-rodeo-054609924.html
  23. I like some of his music but the behavior is abhorrent. I think he is the only musician that I've heard of who Neil Finn didn't get along with. Songwriter show on BBC where both were on & there was an incident. https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/crowded-stage-neil-finn-ryan-adams-in-foulmouthed-tv-bustup-20111027-1ml3j.html
