I saw My Morning Jacket open up for Doves in the fall of 2002 at Boston's Avalon club. Jim James had his long hair covering his whole face. Static X opened up for Type O Negative at Life in New York City 1998.

Wilco's performance(s) will be broadcast in the U.S. on MTV Live (formerly known as Palladia) on Thursday November 10 @ 10pm EST. DVR is set.

Comedy Bang! Bang! The Andy Daly Pilot Podcast Project - I downloaded all of these and all of his appearances on CB!B! and love every second of it. Plus, he's been on Superego.

Just tuned into the Global Citizen Festival (MSNBC) to catch Chris Martin & Eddie Vedder do a duet of Crowded House's Don't Dream It's Over. Pearl Jam "headlined" last year and had several songs cut from the broadcast. They're doing Nothingman now with Chris Martin playing piano & Eddie singing. Eddie on electric & Chris on acoustic doing Patti Smith's People Have The Power.

I always thought that Jeff Tweedy channeled Elton John's early 70s voice on the first line to Everlasting Everything.

Thanks! I enjoyed winning the items and that's the main reason why I went. I'm so glad that that wasn't the first time that I got to hear the record because it was barely audible. I think the employee kept the promo cd for the store. I just noticed that I didn't get any postcard. Oh, I was also told in order to be considered for the drawing that I'd have to buy the vinyl which I didn't mind. The vinyl is pink, btw. They should have had one item per numbered ticket at The Sinclair.

Both shows are on Dime A Dozen. You can also see shows added to In A Future Age.

I just "won" or rather was given all of the free schtuff! No one else showed up. It was kind of awkward. They took my pic to put on their FB page. The "white"vinyl pressing looks sweet. It's black and has the "I Heard Schmilco" sticker on one side.

http://www.interbridge.com/lineups.html The best page to keep an eye on for all the talk shows, unless if Wilcoworld beats them to the punch.

The only logical solution is to have snipers in the balcony with tranquilizer darts.

Some quick thoughts based off of the recording that I downloaded. I haven't listened to the 2nd show yet. 1. Jesus, etc. sounds rejuvenated! It's about time. I love the organ on it. Jeff sang the whole song and it made me fall in love with the song all over again and not want to skip it in person or on a live disc. 2. Locator is a beast now. Sounds much better than the MN show that was broadcast a few weeks ago. Love that double bass and the extended outro. 3 I'm Always In Love & A Shot In The Arm both sound amazing in this current stripped down version. 4. I'm extremely happy that t

The ending to We Aren't The World is eerily similar to the ending of U2's Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own. I love the whole album. I was a bit worried that Happiness would be this record's Leave Me Like You Found Me, but it just clicked. Common is my favorite song closely followed by Quarters. It's funny that they haven't played those 2 yet. I also wondered where Mikael went and he sounds prominent on Shrug & Destroy, unless if that's Pat playing. Cry All Day is also another early favorite. I was lucky enough to download the Seattle show and I'll save my thoughts for that thre

I wish that Jeff Tweedy would go on Comedy Bang Bang. The TV series ends this year, but they're still doing podcasts.

Yeah, I was at the same screening last night. I was going to do a review in the Now Watching thread last night, but I watched the Red Sox instead. One of the funniest Q & A's that I've attended.

Airline To Heaven plays through the whole final scene of John Krasinski's The Hollars.

Born To Be Blue - I really enjoyed watching this film unfold and I had no idea about Chet Baker's life. I think that Ethan Hawke did a fine job carrying the film and it had me hooked the whole way. The problem is that they took some liberties on Chet's life, so I can't tell the difference between fact & fiction and a huge fan might have a totally different reaction to it. I found it interesting that Miles Davis & Dizzy Gillespie were somewhat prominent in the storytelling to show how Chet fit into the jazz scene. Miles Ahead - Don Cheadle was great as Miles Davis, but I truly felt t

I was looking through Twitter to find any info about the Salt Lake City show and came across this pic. It's from Boo Boo Records and this should be what every record store will have on tap Tuesday the 6th for the Schmilco listening parties.

I'd love to see them sprinkle in Woodgrain, Bob Dylan's 49th Beard, More Like The Moon, Black Moon, Rising Red Lung & Open Mind.

My favorite song off of the album so far. I listened to it on my iPhone and when I went to tap my screen to light it up again I saw the website that's hosting the tune. I tried to trick it by changing the song title, but "access denied". Lol! Getting antsy over here. I'll see if I can download the MP3. I'm sure it should be easy. Edit: No such luck.

The Mojo review that features the word "hitherto". Maybe that constituted a raise of some sorts.

Sounds great!

The opening scene takes place on the roof of the hotel & it keeps getting replayed throughout the film. It's Jeremy Davies (Faraday from Lost) running on the roof about to jump off of it. The band appears in Entropy. I totally forgot about that.

Million Dollar Hotel is a weird and sad film with beautiful cinematography and great music. Mel Gibson's character has an arm growing out of his neck. I don't think Bono has any lines, but you can definitely spot him as the camera pans the derelicts living in the hotel of the same name. I didn't think that most people knew of Entropy. I know that you can find it on Wiki or IMDB, but what non-U2 fan would sit down to watch it. That probably explains why it's extremely tough to track down. I think it only exists as a VHS which is what I have. I bought it for a buck when my local Blockbuster c

I think you might get a few shows with the Star Wars themed setlists like they did earlier this year and most recently this summer, but with a few more Schmilco songs thrown into the mix. And about halfway through the residency, they'll flip the script and open up with the Hootenanny (or something similar to the acoustic portion of the An Evening With shows) & showcase a lot of tracks from Schmilco and have a rocking ending. I'd bet that they play all of Schmilco on the show on the 9th.

I've seen Bono pop up in The Million Dollar Hotel which he co-wrote & Phil Joanou's Entropy which was autobiographical & self-masturbatory: Phil directed Rattle & Hum. Bono popped up in a similar fashion as Springsteen in High Fidelty. Across The Universe: I'm guessing that Julie Taymor & Bono crossed paths somewhere on Broadway. Bono's MacPhisto character was almost a part of Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever. That sort of explains the cool animated video for Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me.
