Thanks Choo-Choo-Charlie for the info! I'll have to dig out the cds and look for myself.

I'll also guess 3. I figure it leaked and some people probably won't buy it. Since I don't typically care about album sales, are iTunes sales taken into account? Kristofor PS I remember Prince did something cool in 2004, where everyone that bought tickets to his show got a copy of his new album when they showed up to the show. It kept him on Billboard for a long time. Well, for as long as he was on tour.

It got me to thinking- How many pictures of the band has there been in liner notes? I only recall Sky Blue Sky and the back of Summerteeth. I forget since we live in the iPod age. Haven't looked at liner notes for awhile. Kristofor PS Just thinking about all the people who don't know Wilco out there and if that's their first impression I wonder what they thought. I don't know what I'd think. I think I would have loved the costumes and would have been intrigued to check them out. Though I'm not sure if the nudie suits would overpower the music?

Hey, This is too bad, but at least she isn't suffering anymore. Earlier in June I saw her on Comedy Central's Roast to William Shatner. I don't know how old that special was but she looked to be doing fairly well. I guess I can check IMDB. Edit: That was done all the way back in 2006. Kristofor

Interestingly, I think Jeff looks younger when he has/had shorter hair. Especially around 02/03...that German Festival show is a good example. The long hair makes him look a bit older. Not sure why. Kristofor PS Would you pay to see a puppet show performed by Jeff?!

Please allow tapers at least 2 weeks before requesting anything. Kristofor

Elton John - Goodbye from Madman Across The Water John Lennon - Love Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed Pearl Jam - Man Of The Hour James Ingram & Linda Ronstadt - Somewhere Out There Michael McDonald & Patti LaBelle - On My Own The Killers - All These Things That I've Done R.E.M. - The Great Beyond Wilco - Everlasting U2 - The First Time And I've always had this fantasy that some beautiful, tearful woman would insist on "You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" by Gladys Knight. But who would that woman be?

Would that be considered experimental? LOL I agree that experimentation is more about technique. And in the end it's all about the songs. I'm lucky to have liked everything Wilco has put out. It's not that I don't have standards, it's that everything has eventually grown on me either through the album versions or live. Kristofor

It would be great if they did a mini tour where they just went on stage for 2 hours and just played music like in the Book cd. I remember someone in the band mentioning discussing a tour like that. It certainly would mix things up somewhere down the road. Kristofor Edit: Or for the next Residency have one night's 2nd set be strictly like mentioned above.

Hey, Yeah, I think I hear a little bit of what everyone has said and than some. Panthers didn't even cross my mind until someone just mentioned it. The intro to Unlikely Japan reminds me of Deeper Down's intro. But it still is unlike anything they've done. I like that notion. Would you pay for a box set of such stuff? I think it would be an interesting idea if such material popped up on the official site and was offered like The Jolly Banker. But with a different charity for donations. I know sometimes they've given away tracks like Cars Can't Escape. I'm not sure how well a Wilco box set

Thanks for putting this up here tonight! Kristofor PS If anyone wants a link in the next couple of hours while I watch a movie in my room PM me...i'll hear it "ding". Edit: OK...bed time...hope those of you that got it enjoyed it.

An MP3 would be greatly appreciated! Thanks to whoever sends it here..i'll pass it along if I get it to others. Kristofor

WOW!! Simply breathtaking. Why can't this be on a cd single?! How does it sound? It fits in nicely with A Ghost Is Born and the Wilco Book cd. Very 70s sounding..has a T-Rex (Cosmic Dancer) feel to it in certain sounds that weren't typical for Wilco to use. Similar in acoustic sound to Muzzle Of Bees and Company In My Back and electronic stuff added in a la Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. There's even an interesting "ending" that sounds like Bull Black Nova's intro. I use quotes because it's like a fake out ending and turns into Jeff singing "Impossible Germany, Unlikely Japan" that turns into an e

Hey Folks, I just picked up the 7 Inch single at Bull Moose Records in Salem, NH...they had 4 copies left. About to eat than put it on to find out what Unlikely Japan sounds like. Kristofor

Now I'm getting excited!! AtU2.com posted a link to the dress rehearsal setlist for the 360 tour. Lots of typical songs are missing which I like. Also there's a great handful of tunes that I've never heard live that have been rehearsed. The dress rehearsal was in Barcelona on June 17, 2009.

Hey Todd, Well that throws a wrench into the system. When in doubt call the place. They should know what's going on. You can take the "i'm confused as to the doors opening time"... or "the I really want to see the opening act when will he/she/they be on ... at 8 or later...?" The best they can do is probably say "well, the opener goes on at 9 and after that we don't know, but the curfew is at blah blah blah." Kristofor

I heard You Never Know at a local steakhouse establishment known as T-Bones. I assume that they use satellite radio. In the same town, down the road, at the local Burger King they played Impossible Germany as soon as I walked in. Pretty weird. I told the girl behind the counter "Wow, Burger King is playing my favorite band." To which she looked at the giant menu behind her and looked back at me with a deer in headlights look. Kristofor PS I forgot to reveal my location...ha....Hudson, NH.

Hey Todd, I know through Wilcobase that Wilco came out at 9pm until 11 for the Cincinnati show on Friday. Not too sure about the Oklahoma City show last night. Assuming the venue for Pomona is indoors than I think it will be 9pm give or take a few minutes. If there's no curfew, than expect a later show than 11. For me, I'm seeing them at a minor league baseball park which is a different thing altogether. Opening act goes on at 7pm. Wilco should be on around 8 until 10 due to it being open air and there's specific curfews for those types of venues. Tanglewood last summer was the same way

Thanks again for the setlist Paul

Hey Keith, I think your photos look really great. Coming from a film background, I really like what you got. The shot composition and lighting looks great. One question: I'm assuming you get the sepia tone from whatever you use to put those pics online. I guess feel free to post what type of camera you used etc. Kristofor PS Ok, I looked at all the pics and noticed the nice mix of color, b & w and the really nice sepia tone. It's definitely something I admire to see especially considering that you're doing this at a concert and the shots look nice and steady and not rushed. I also l

Negative to Lowell tickets. It sucks in the sense that I can't collect my money from friends until I give them tickets in return. Oh well. But aren't they supposed to be "Collectible Tickets"? I assume they're going to look like baseball game tickets. Maybe that's the hold up. Kristofor PS A friend of mine just got a job in the marketing department at LeLacheur Park for the Lowell Spinners. I should ask her if she knows anything related to the show. Maybe she'll get some free tickets. Maybe not.

Interview with Glenn backstage at Bonnaroo....... From Lightning 100 Nashville Independent Radio. Kristofor

Hey Folks, The Official Bonnaroo page has Blogs and Tweets and other such stuff to keep people up to date. From the site: Wilco at Sunset (06/14/09 01:57 AM) Wilco returned to Bonnaroo with a masterful set on the What Stage, playing favorites like "California Stars" and "Handshake Drugs" along with a few songs from the new "Wilco (The Album)," which comes out at the end of this month › Read full post Clicked on full post and there's nothing but pictures. No setlist. But for Bruce fans there is a setlist on the same bloggers site - Alan. Here's the link. http://www.bonnaroo.com/b

Wow, that sucks and would probably ruin my experience. It'd be tough to enjoy myself knowing that there's a "concert ethics cop" behind me. 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 too l

Hey Thanks, It's pretty good. It reminds me a bit of that Zoo TV Special in 1992 where this girl shows up in Adam's hotel room and she's breathing heavy. Of course, Bono isn't breathing heavy but he's being Bono and giving The Edge a hard time. Or so it looks. Kristofor PS Yeah, there's a bunch of clips dating back to 05 for this set.
