  2. I knew this reeked of publicity stunt and on CNN of all places little Falcon ratted out his parents on live television. Beautiful! Although, I am very frustrated by these "parents" that try to make money by using their children as tools to achieve fame etc. They & Jon & Kate make Ari Gold and a pimp look like Mr. Rogers. Heck, throw them all away in a prison and throw the key away. These "parents" are insane and narcissistic. Kristofor
  3. Hey All, I was out at my local Uno in Nashua, NH 2 Wednesdays in a row between 11p.m. EST & 1a.m. I heard @12:30a.m. last week What Light which was amazing because some song before that got the bartender to turn the sound up. Tonight to my surprise @12:30 they played Airline To Heaven. Kristofor I'm 100% sure it is satellite radio.
  4. Hey folks, So I was listening to my boot from Gillette Night 1 and I noticed that Bono snippetted/tagged Far, Far Away again in the intro to Beautiful Day. But he changed it to fit the Boston location. "An Irish boy (obviously not in WIlco's song ) kissing right on the T train Irish boy in Massachusetts I want to hold you in my arms and sway"
  5. http://www.sendspace.com/file/tx9qqp Here's an audio link I put up so folks can hear the snippet/tag. Thanks to Prof Peabody for indexing it as a standalone track.
  6. Since my best friend was at this show and he is an electrical engineer and somehow illiterate when it comes to torrents, I downloaded this show today. Very nicely, the taper Prof Peabody, indexed the snippet/tag of Far, Far Away as a stand alone track. I put it up on sendspace for those that want to hear it. It's actually much clearer quality than that video. So much more clearer that you can make out a bit more lyrics from the tune. http://www.sendspace.com/file/tx9qqp
  7. Hey Folks, Well, I listened to the 1st U2 Chicago show live over the internet as it happened. Someone calls from the show and it shows up on some website called Mikes1000. Sound isn't the best, but you can make out each song. So, as mentioned, before Beautiful Day Bono sang part of Far Far Away. And he did it on both nights. When I listened live on Saturday night I almost shit my pants than I forgot about it because it didn't get listed on the U2 fansites. But they just updated it now and I'm glad that I wasn't imagining things. My best friend and his brother went to the show. I don't th
  8. Hmm...I didn't even notice that. I'll check it out now. I guess it does make sense..."out and about" lol.. Thanks

  10. Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy. I'd be most interested for the title track which I think they would kill, Meal Ticket which would rock, and the epic We All Fall In Love Sometimes (which kind of reminds me of Everlasting)/Curtains finale. I do like the choices being thrown around.
  11. The Man was also used in trailers and in the film Observe & Report.
  12. Since the last thing I went to bed was was post in this forum, I ended up dreaming about it. In 2 different scenarios. Here's what transpired: 1) The Wilco tour bus pulls up to wherever you are and it's only you. Jeff comes out decked in a priest's robe and does a slow motion walk off the bus much like Gwyneth Paltrow meeting Luke Wilson in The Royal Tenenbaums. Only thing is it's your song playing in your head as he walks toward you and not Nico. Jeff slowly hands you your cd back with your one song on it and starts moving his mouth in a way that means "Oh my God that was amazing!", but k
  13. Hmm...you say the song is 2.5 minutes long....hmm....hmm... Eddie Vedder is that you?
  14. The only similar thing that I've personally come across is when my friend got to open for Ryan Adams after meeting him at Higher Ground in Vermont April 2005. Than we got to go onto his tour bus at the next show at Hampton Beach. He even called out to him during the show to say something like "you're coming with me". At the Vermont show I know they talked about music and he wanted a cd of my friend's music. So that's why he wanted to see him after the show. It sounds crazy but I have the bootleg and you can hear him onstage saying it. I saw my friend give him the cd and than that was it. I ha
  15. Happy Birthday Jeff!! Thanks for being in this world during my time and filling it with pure pleasure and satisfaction. I'll go to my grave knowing that I met one of my idols and it was an amazing experience. Kristofor
  16. That's very interesting and nice to hear. Too bad it didn't do well at the box office. It got great reviews which I didn't see coming. Kristofor
  17. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/TedKennedy/story?id=6692022 Strangely enough I heard about this on Facebook from an old college friend in NYC. Than 2 minutes later it broke on the local Boston channels. Kristofor
  18. So I was looking around iTunes for a few minutes to finally buy the Jesus, Etc. track from Funny People and I had to see what was on this teeny bopper soundtrack that somehow has David Bowie in the movie. And to my dismay I found that it had a Wilco track on it? Not only Wilco but David Bowie's Rebel Rebel, Nico & The Velvet Underground's Femme Fatale and Nick Drake's Road. Than there's Vanessa Hudgens and some other bands I don't know of. That's all, Kristofor PS I may have a movie theater manager friend of mine sneak me into this for further evaluation.
  19. http://wilcobase.com/index.php This is everything any Wilco fan needs for setlists and the like. Off the top of my head I forget the exact dates of the Ashes shows, but it's easy to search around that site. Edit: Ok, I just realized that you're looking for the setlist for the DVD and not the actual shows they were culled from. Still bookmark the site though.
  20. Yeah, MLBTradeRumors is a great site.
  21. To LouieB and Kidsmoke and others who have posted about "clingy" people I am reposting this from earlier this year. My worst concert experience: The 2 worst experiences I had were at the same venue: Agganis Arena at BU. 1. Pixies in 05- This couple gets in front of me and my friend. We're in the front row of the 2nd second floor section. So these people obviously aren't in their seats. I try tapping the girl's shoulder first since she was in front of me. Nothing. Than I look for the staff to help out or at least do a nod to this not-in-their-seat-couple. More tapping. I try speaking but it's
  22. Wow, some people are all about themselves and haven't got a clue about what a certain event should be like. Or maybe they do and they want to get into a fight to defend their freedom to do as they want at a show? Did Jeff call this guy out? If not maybe the fans should team up and rough this guy up or threaten to cut his tongue out and throw it out on stage. "am I talking too loudly for you?" - man, I can just picture this guy and exactly the way he would look while saying it too.
  23. I also was looking for a "makeup" date for the Lowell rainout, but it does seem unlikely now with all the tour dates we've seen. It's been 5 years since the New Year's Eve show. I think it'd be cool for one this year.
  24. I also love this song and would love for it to show up from time to time. It's only 2.5 minutes. It'll be painless for the folks that don't like it. I posted in the "Heard While You're Out And About" thread that my friend said he heard this song played on Satellite Radio at the Outback Steakhouse. So it is getting love. Maybe Outback will use it for a fish dish commercial in the future
  25. Bump for the purpose of more investigation Merge thread?
