My tickets have arrived(email on Tuesday) and now i am truly excited..... it's been like since what April that tickets went on sale. Won't be long now. Thanks, Kristofor

Hello All, Blood Of The Lamb is indeed in War, Inc. It is featured in one of the most serious scenes and adds such a dark and somber mood that it was a perfect choice. There's about 2 minutes of it and it is about 80 % upfront in the sound mix. There's a little bit where Joan Cusack talks over it but you can still hear it. Anyways, the film was absolutely terrific and packed with all kinds of ideas and tone shifts to make your head spin. I want to run back to Boston to see it again. Thanks, Kristofor PS Sadly Tweedy's name was spelled wrong in the credits....as "Tweedie". Oh well

Hello everyone, Well, John Cusack's new movie is already out in 2 cities as of now. NY and LA. Actually, it's only in 2 theaters total. It expands to Boston, San Francisco, DC, and Chicago on June 13th. www.myspace.com/johncusack According to John Cusack's myspace page (hey, he updates it with video diaries), Wilco & Billy Bragg's Blood Of The Lamb is on the soundtrack. Along with Ray Davies' The Tourist and David Bowie's Sorrow. Here is what this site has to say about the movie. It sounds terrific. "In an effort to monopolize the opportunities the war-torn nation offers, Tamer

Well, This song is amazing!!! I downloaded this off of iTunes using my xmas gift card at 3am. Unfortunately, you can't buy the single song and Wilco is the best thing on this soundtrack. I was psyched to have a new Wilco tune and this did not disappoint especially after the 30 second Amazon.com sample. The lyrics I had to write down because they are so fantastic. This song definitely is a distant cousin of Hate It Here. I realize there is a lyrics section on here, but I didn't know if it would be checked for this song so soon. These are some of Jeff's best lyrics in here. If anyone here h

Hey, I was thinking about this the other night when I was blown away by this whole concept. I kind of have this idea of them opening with their opening track each night and than moving around their catalog. Night 1 : I Must Be High Night 2 : Misunderstood Night 3 : I Am Trying To Break Your Heart Night 4 : At Least That's What You Said Night 5 : Either Way Yea, I can't really see Can't Stand It opening a show or being played. We'll have to see. Someone will have to tally up all of Wilco's recordings to see how many songs they have. I think I see 96 on another thread. I was at all 3

Well, I was at the cinema tonight to see The Hunting Party and there was an amazing trailer for Reservation Road. It featured Sunken Treasure towards the end. It used the opening strumming and some lines in the verse(s) and the rock out part towards the end to synch up with the actor's names. Unfortunately, the only internet trailer has Damien Rice's Grey Room in the same part. So hopefully before the film comes out on October 19th this 2nd trailer shows up online. Is this the first time Wilco's music has been used in a trailer ? I seem to think it is. I was the only person in the thea

This is from March 28, 2007. As you can see John's Boston in June story came out to be. Also, I remember Pat saying Boston would be in the fall. Anyways, here is the post. I am surprised that people remember this story. I kind of think a few other people might have spoken to John or even Pat as well about a new record. "Hello, I would like to throw in my .02 cents. I spoke to John Stirratt after The Autumn Defense show last Tuesday in Cambridge, MA. I gave a short review of it and I forgot to mention something he mentioned. I told him I loved Sky Blue Sky and asked him what plans were in s

Here's Jeff Tweedy. Discuss Here's Mikael Jorgenson Here's John Stiratt I think it's clever to have Joaquin Phoenix as JT and Philip Seymour Hoffman as JB. That way they can continue their competition from the 2006 Oscars. When they both get nominated for the Wilco motion picture. Thanks, Kristofor

Hello, I put this in my review of the show and I saw it in the MTV Unplugged thread. I figured I'd give everyone the heads up. Sorry, if this is somewhere else on the board in plain sight. Anyways, it will be on in "the future". Beautiful venue. It reminds me of the type of place that would hold a German festival. I remember an old U2 video bootleg I have of them back in 82 in Lorelely, Germany I think. It looks pretty close to it. Behind the stage is a forest. The place has its charms and is unique. Thanks, Kristofor

Hello, I hope everyone enjoyed the show and had a safe trip. Anyone get lost like I did in 2006 ? I will save notes until later on. I need to get up early for a damn meeting. First off, tonight's show was filmed by MTV and VH1 for "future use". Later in the show Jeff joked about the curfew while sliding in the fact that they were being filmed, " We have to go now.....CRIBS is coming up next. " LOL The show started rather early. 8:10 i think till 10:05. Low finished at about 750 and than some guy from the Pines Theater came to welcome us and Wilco for coming out and said Wilco is gonna be

Hey, The show is up at btree. http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=507604 I just happened to be looking for the Murat show and I stumbled upon it. Let's not get spoiled. I didn't even go tonight but it sounded like an incredible long show. Thanks, Kristofor PS If only Pines and Boston would show up the same way.

Hey, What radio station gave them out ? Someone said Kiss 108 is giving out tickets to the Boston show which I find hard to believe since it's a Top 40 radio station. Have fun. Kristofor

Hello, Well, I know you are right. I only tried to see if anyone would take the offer. Just excited to see Wilco again after Chicago last November. For the record I am not a cell phone picker upper during shows. I just figured since it was a Sunday night maybe someone here would partake. I'll leave the field reporting to Dan Rather. Well, i kind of figured I would get the responses that I did. You'll just have to wait until we get back from the show than. Kristofor PS Yea, I kind of feel like an ass. Cue Sad Charlie Brown Music. Head hung in shame.

Hey Howdjadoo, Thanks for the help !! I am now watching it on my tv. Thanks again, Kristofor

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here who was planning on staying in on Sunday night would care to receive text messages of the setlist as it is happening. Of course, posting it here would be great. I used to see this all the time on the U2 mesage boards during their Vertigo tour. It was exciting to see on your computer what song they were playing. I haven't really seen it on here except for Webcasts. In order to enjoy the show as much as possible I probably would use acronyms. Think of it as a Wilco penpal for the night. I'm sure that this has been tried in the past. It seems that with

Hello Everyone, Any ideas on how to burn this to dvd. I tried with Nero and no luck. I did it as a Data DVD. It might work but it won't play on my dvd players. I also tried to burn it via Windows Media Player but it was not very clear. Thanks, Kristofor I've only had my External Panasonic DVD-R for a month. I tried a few combinations and the Data DVD seemed like the only sure thing.

Television - Marquee Moon Elton John - Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy I know 2 title tracks, but I can totally see Jeff and Nels rip up Marquee Moon. Thanks, Kristofor

Hello, I agree last year's show at the Pines was amazing....or at least the last 2 encores which is all that I caught of it. Yes, I was late for a Wilco show. Get directions. Check. Pay attention. Uh...My friends and I were late to leave anyway. It was a fucking hot 90 + degree day with no breeze. I was moving mattresses out of my house. Sweating profusely. My 2 friends were at another's Awesomefest. Don't ask. By the time we met at our local Barnes and Noble it was close to 6. We were coming from NH. I didn't get lost when I saw Tweedy in Northampton in 05. But for some reason I went past t

Hello, I will be at both MA shows. Really really looking forward to having a nice break between shows. Interesting to see what they pull out for both. I am sure Boston might be treated as a night two for MA. Although coming four days later and the show being halfway across the state - we'll see. Kristofor PS I really wish they'd cover Marquee Moon by Television. I think they'd tear that up.

Hello, I used to live in MA. Dracut, Ma. Next to Lowell. Now I live in Hudson, NH. Kristofor

They need to play Hate It Here.

Hey, It took me only 2 hours to get it and BOY does it sound amazing. Thanks mate ! Still uploading it now to other people. I am gonna take a long drive through this shiity New England weather to hear how this show went down. Thanks, Kristofor

Thanks, I am looking forward to the multiple seeders. Kristofor PS Who else really can't wait to hear You Are My Face, Sky Blue Sky and Hate It Here ?

Hey Ex King John, Thanks for the recording. We have all become spoiled. You asked if there were any problems. Well it looks like you uploaded the show about 4 hours ago and it seems that no one has downloaded it yet. I'm slowed down at 88 %. Anyone else have this problem. 86 hits and no snatches = maybe slight problem. I don't know. Thanks, Kristofor PS No Rush.

Wow, it's a small world after all. I already have the show, thanks for thinking of PMing it to me though. Cool , Kristofor
