  1. 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
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Yeah, MLBTradeRumors is a great site.
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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
  9. Bump for the purpose of more investigation Merge thread?
  10. Andrew Bird opened the Wilco show at Tanglewood and never came out once to play with the band like he did at The Winter Residency. Unless, if he was plugged in backstage and played along. It's highly possible. But it should be noted that it has the highest ranking on iTunes out of the whole soundtrack (18 songs). Marketing genius or pure deception? You decide.
  11. I reported awhile back that according to Amazon.com's listing a month or so ago that it was listed as Jesus, Etc. (Tanglewood Live Version) Kristofor Edit: Apparently, Amazon.com says Jesus, Etc. is from Andrew Bird now! LOL WTF? Oh well. I was there like someone mentioned and he never came out. It could be the people at Sony lying to get people to buy the song or moreso the soundtrack.
  12. I'm happy Country Disappeared got played even if it was the last US Summer show. I was wondering about the gig too. I thought it didn't happen since nothing showed up on here. Is VC the nexus of the universe? I think it might just be.
  13. I was out dining at Outback Steakhouse in Tyngsboro, MA last Thursday night and lo & behold Kamera came on. Very cool. So I texted my good friend who works there and told him (he's seen them 3 times - Boston Pavillion 07, Tanglewood 08, Lowell 09). He said that he's heard I'm The Man Who Loves You, Heavy Metal Drummer and just last night he heard Secret Of The Sea (!?!!) on their satellite radio station. Kristofor
  14. My link A friend of mine found me the script to this and I can say that I wholeheartedly enjoyed the shit out of it. It's completely an ode to the films of the 80s especially Better Off Dead. While this teaser is selling the premise, I can assure you there are plenty of memorable lines, sight gags and other sick and twisted jokes and one final plot twist that will be talked about for awhile. Enjoy, Kristofor PS It'd help if I said who's in it. The movie stars John Cusack, Rob Corddry, Craig Armstrong, Clark Duke, Chevy Chase, Crispin Glover and a Poison tribute band that escapes me.
  15. And the use of the word "palatable" threw me off.
  16. Crow Daddy Magnus, What state are you in? I'm assuming it's one that hasn't been touched yet by the band on this tour.
  17. Ha. My best friend pointed that out to me when we were far away the first time we saw them play with Mikael in 2003. From our vantage point that's who he reminded him of. But Mikael is a very nice guy who I was fortunate enough to speak with after a Portland, Maine show......Your Honor
  18. Actually, Tweedy tweeded me the other night and said he can't stand it when Nels gets all the attention up there. In fact, at one of the recent ball park shows Jeff grabbed a ball that was autographed by Nels and ran off with it to a local pawn shop. He traded it in for this.... But to answer your question seriously or more serious than before: I don't think Jeff really cares or has time to notice if Nels' side has more people. Those people could really be Mikael Jorgensen fans or people double checking to see if 1970s Woody Allen time traveled in a hot tub time machine to play with Wilco f
  19. Well, after looking at the setlist for the Michigan show from last night something occurred to me: I'd love to just see Wilco do a show like this over the next year. I'm not looking to get 31 songs per night but it does leave things open without having an opening act. Yes, it also leaves out possible guests on songs. In my head it would be cool for the band to tour like this for maybe a year. They could maybe like they do now spread out shows and play for a certain length of time like 6 weeks and rest for however long than come back again. While I'm grateful to have Wilco be a band that se
  20. Yeah, Wilco should only have an opening act if culled from the following bands: I'm all for An Evening With! (in the future)
  21. That's fantastic about the baseballs! Great idea.
  22. That is one fucking setlist right there. Good for you guys. Of course having seen them 1 week ago today on the infamous Lowell rain out, I'm a bit bummed. (in Costanza voice) I Demand Reparations!! Kristofor PS Just got back from Elton & Billy at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA. Amazing.
  23. Yeah, it's pretty great quality. I just clicked on each song to double check and it sounds great. I approve this recording. Go get em. Kristofor PS Kickass setlist too obviously.
