My feeling is that this is a Jeff solo performance and as such, Jeff and Wilco would not want it posted. Sorry folks!

Oh think harder you grinchesque types!

I was thinking about this last night...I don't know if Winter is my favorite season, but I love it for so many reasons...the crisp, chilly nights where the stars practically pop out of the heavens, the trees gone bare and looking like fantastic sculptures, eggnog and cinnamon-scented pinecones for the fireplace (which we don't have) on sale at the market, UPS trucks rampaging through the streets importantly, spitting out gifts for somebody or other, rainy nights that make the streets shimmer with reflected lights... What do you love about it being wintertime? Share!

"Now we know the rate of change" Hahaha. Great stuff!

I totally lol'd.

Ok, you've both said your piece and managed to do so civilly, but now let's leave this discussion for the sake of keeping on topic, since this thread is actually called "Taping the Tweedy Shows". Does anyone have an answer for dthedust about the Boulder Theatre's taping policies?

I get how you feel, but this sort of conversing is best kept to pm's rather than an everyone-can-read forum. My comments about keeping the dialogue civil were addressed not just to you, Nap, but rather to all of our members. Nobody needs to get snarky, and it's especially inappropriate, and unbecoming, on an all-ages board such as this. Am I gonna have to turn this car around? Love, kidsmoke

Easy, girl...no need to get personal. Let's all do our level best to keep the dialogue civil.

I don't ever mind hearing opinions either positive or negative, even when I strongly disagree. Discussion of the band's music is fine. It's the snarky posts made strictly to be snarky that make me crazy. The posters of these often seem to consider their posts to be witty and clever, but they're just...tiresome.

Oh yeah, me too, and virtually everything else he was ever in. RIP, Leslie.

I just got home from seeing them in L.A....a great show with a warm & receptive hometown crowd. Several of the new songs mentioned were played, including (of course)"Time Spent in L.A." Taylor & Griffin's dad was also in attendance, singing along to himself with every song, back by the soundboard. They were joined onstage for several songs by Jonathan Wilson and Dave Somebody (sorry, didn't catch it) and then wrapped up the encore with a big happy singalong with members of all three bands onstage. (Romany Rye/Moondoggies opened) I went with Brennan, and he got a very nice-sounding so

I've heard that's very good, Anthony. Let us know how you like it. I'm reading another Walter Mosley, "Big Bad Brawley Brown". Man can he weave a story! This one's an Easy Rawlins story. Great stuff, fast paced with no wasted words.

Cats wear shoes?! I don't believe you, you probably have a lovely singing voice. But you could always team up with someone else doing the singing, if you wanted to.

So you play, Josh? I'll expect your multitalented self on our next tribute album.

Agreed. Either that or "Sandwich".

Sarducci? Actually, "Sarducci" might make a cool band name.

Wow, massive! What's it about, roughly?

Hey Paul, and Arlene and all the rest of you Autumn Defense fans, have a look at this link: http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=540150 It's Brennan's recording of the AD's set from the Solid Sound Festival, which he has just uploaded there. Brennan wishes Hunter Center (where they played) hadn't been such a "boomy" sounding venue, but I really like his recording. Arlene, you can listen here to "You Can't Have Me" and see if you recognize it as the last song you heard the other night. Great song!

I know, huh?!!!

I've got it Arlene...here you go: The Autumn Defense 2010-08-15 Solid Sound Festival North Adams, MA 01. Sun in California 02. Bluebirds 03. Written in the Snow 04. Every Day 05. Back of my Mind 06.

Don't mind us, Crow...it's just some silliness from VC's days of yore. Silliness and nostalgia. Isn't that the truth!

Now Dave, don't go encouraging him with surprised emoticons...

:lol He's right you know, that's how you can tell a truly serious singer-alonger who if given the chance will howl along for an entire concert. (Move away if possible.) Funny, funny picture...Bren says thanks too!
