  1. I say "kill them off". They are the Jar Jar Binks of Lost.

     

    They showed up toward the end of last season - Paolo and Nikki. Window dressing at this point. Dunno if they're actually going to do anything but stand around and look like models.
  2. I don't know about the whole "promo" single thing. I guess I always think of singles as:

    1. Something with B-sides

    2. Available to purchase.

    3. Something that is charted.

    Like these:

    Box Full Of Letters CD-Single 1995

    Outtasite (Outta Mind) CD-Single 1997

    A Shot In The Arm CD-Single 1999

    A Shot In The Arm CD-Single 1999

    Can't Stand It CD-Single 1999

    Can't Stand It CD-Single 1999

    War On War CD-Single 2002

     

    But I guess other people have different ideas of a single.

     

    Singles : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_%28music%29

     

    To the people who say Wilco don't do singles:

     

    "Box Full of Letters", "I Must Be High", "Casino Queen", "Outtasite", "Monday", "Hotel Arizona", "Can't Stand It", "A Shot in The Arm", "Nothingsevergonnastandinmyway(Again)", ""Kamera", "War on War", "Jesus Etc;", "Heavy Metal Drummer", "I'm a Wheel" and "Theologians" were all released as promo singles.

     

    Sky Blue Sky will definitely have a single of some sorts.

  3. regardless of whether it is sarcasm or not, it is mean and hurtful.

    and to think that this all started because one poster said that tapers don't like these formats. i mean, no tapers on this thread complained about the mp3s being posted did they?

     

    in my nearly 5000 posts, a good 4500 are slathered in sarcasm. that's how i roll. my apologies to those who don't get that. i've been doing this since 2003 for gods sakes!!! of course the standard line is that sarcasm doesn't translate well on the internets. maybe i should resurrect my old disclaimer stating my affinity for the dry wit.
  4. got one.

    in case anyone else is interested. you have to call the marfa ballroom store : 432-729-3600.

     

     

    Great poster!

    I don't suppose any of you picked up an extra that you would be willing to sell???? I would love to get one and I have had no luck at the Marfa Ballroom site or in any of the usual places. Thanks.

    Look in your heart,

    Ted

    Here's the poster that the Ballroom Marfa people were selling:

  6. I'm pretty sure it was That Smell a Lynyrd Skynyrd cover and he did the Hank Williams song I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive.

     

     

    In no order and from what I can recall...

     

    Dear Employer

    Original Luke

    Days of Wine & Booze

    Aw Shit Man

    Cemetery Row

    Cigarettes, Coffee & Booze

    All Worn Out

     

    Also a cover... was it Cant you smell that smell? I don't remember...

  7. does anyone know where i can get some good images of wilco/jeff tweedy posters that i could use for desktops and the like??

     

    i really like the some of the posters but can't find any decent picture.

     

    try these:

    http://www.expressobeans.com/public/search...&available=

    http://www.gigposters.com/posters.php?band=35040

    http://www.gigposters.com/posters.php?band=5163

     

    Also, it does seem a bit strange sometimes, but it seems to happen every tour that they do not release posters for certain cities. For this tour, there was no poster for Memphis or New Orleans (Charlottesville - TBD) but for all of the other cities there were posters. The band has gotten very selective about the designs and artists that they use for the art.

  8. Oh, I forgot to mention that Scott started his set with Dear Employer, which was a high point for me. He had the drummer and violinist from Tin Cup Prophette play with him during his set.

    There was a great Hatch Show print available for the show.

    I'd say the only negative for me was that the venue was cold as hell. Great night though.

    -Ted

  9. I thought that I'd get the ball rolling on the Atlanta thread...

     

    Fantastic show. It was definitely the funniest show that I have ever seen. Jeff seemed to have a great time.

     

    Cars can't escape

    Muzzle of Bees

    Promising

    What Light

    New Madrid

    Passenger Side

    Someone Else's Song + Dreamer in My Dreams + Acuff Rose (all unplugged)

    Gun

    Remember the Mountain Bed

    Via Chicago

    ITMWLY

    IATTBYH

    Jesus, etc.

    Hesitating Beauty

    The Ruling Class

    Spiders

    Lonely 1

    Patient with Me

    Heavy Metal Drummer

    Shot in the Arm

    Box Full of Letters

    I think that's about it. The order is all incorrect of course, but I'm pretty sure those were the songs played.

  10. I don't suppose that anyone out there has any of these and wants to sell them to someone who will appreciate them and give them a lovely home? I've got ebay covered and I've checked with the artists, so I thought I'd turn to via chicago for help.

    Thanks for looking and any help that you might be able to give, Ted

    I know there is a second printing out there for this flaming typewriter one, but I was looking for the original.
