  1. Player’s Union is way too strong. Plus, I can’t imagine Manfred wanting to add fuel to the fire that will be a contentious negotiation. Many people, me included, think there’s going to be a strike/lockout in 2021. How pathetic do you have to be to cheat against the 2017 White Sox? I say this as a die hard White Sox fan.

  2. I’m the rare Sox fan that doesn’t really care about the Cubs. They’re just the NL Chicago team to me. I’m friendly, even though I sometimes come off as disinterested because of said anxiety. Maybe today! Damn, I didn’t see Sima yesterday! We went to high school together, and I think she was a year behind me. She showed me the correct way to play Chinese Apple back then, and it was really nice to reconnect at Solid Sound. Up until last night, I had seen Ohmme more than any other band this year. They are great.
  3. bbop-I was a few rows behind you (next to the guy screaming “All night long,” repeatedly) and wanted to say hi/introduce myself but that pesky social anxiety kicked in. Super fun show! The set closer was really nice, with Sharon Van Etten, Sima from Ohmme and Liam Kazar joining. I’ve now seen Wilco the same amount of times I’ve seen Ohmme this year. They are a great band. Anywho, can’t wait for tonight!
  4. Great show! I’ll add that the mix was fantastic, as I was by Nels’ side, but everything came through great. Best Wilco show since the last Wilco show made even better when two drunken buffoons were forcibly ejected. With Bull Black Nova, the background art worked really well with the song. Unfortunately, I don’t have tickets tonight, so onward to Wednesday!
  5. It is just a really dumb, fun song. If Dominic the Donkey gets regular radio play, this one should too!

  7. Good for him. I know a lot of White Sox fans love him. This Sox fan thought he was brutal.

  9. There are several Wilco artifacts already in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
  10. No I think it’s poetry and magic?

  12. Quiet Amplifier So for this song Jeff stated that he tuned his guitar to C#G#C#G#G#C# for this song (https://www.guitarplayer.com/players/jeff-tweedy-and-nels-cline-on-how-cheapo-guitars-and-rubber-bridges-helped-them-find-happiness-on-ode-to-joy) The chords I hear throughout are C# and D#m so I guess just fingerpick to your heart's content throughout. Things I've done: Capo 1 and play C and Dm Tune 1/2 step down to C# G# C# F# A# D# (Like a Drop D tuned down a 1/2 step) and play D and Em (222000) Intro C# C# I wish your world was mine D#m C#

  14. I always try to look for a video of the song live when I can and that’s what it looked like. It’s a bit tricky and took me a while. Now we need people to have a go at some of the leads because that’s beyond my ability.

  20. My thoughts on Ode To Joy: In my six years as a teacher, one thing I have to remind myself is to have a growth mindset instead of a fixed mindset. Fixed mindset is believing that qualities are fixed traits and therefore cannot change. These people document their intelligence and talents rather than working to develop and improve them. They also believe that talent alone leads to success, and effort is not required. In a growth mindset , people have an underlying belief that their learning and intelligence can grow with time and experience. When people believe they can become better, they rea

  22. Their Instagram story has the lyrics to "Everyone Hides" in it.
  23. Mikael did a podcast that was released today, and at the end you can hear "White Wooden Cross." There's a lot going on in the song based on a good headphone listen. http://www.workinitpod.com/podcast/episode-02-04-wilco-keyboardist-mikael-jorgensen-wilco-does-indeed-love-you/
