  1. Nathan Fuller, that's who I was thinking of...is he a member here as well? Invite him, if not! Don't give me too much credit, Brian, all I did was look over your meticulous organization, and enjoy the music therein! Glad to help however I could.
  2. Albert, having already wandered this archive, I highly recommend it. SO well organized and such treasures among the easy to navigate songs! We have been so deeply spoiled by the Tweedy Show. This archive makes it clear just HOW spoiled.Thank you, all 4 Tweedys! What a treasure trove has been amassed over the past year. How odd; pandemic blessings! And thank you, tweedynerd, for all your work on the archives! Tweedynerd, I know you had others assisting with this project, can you say who helped? It sure turned into a worthwhile project, and I know it ate up hours of your time
  3. Yes, September 2003 was the very tail end of the YHF tour. They finished the tour in Chicago that same month. I have 2 copies of YHF with the cardboard cd cover. One is the beige that matches the cover & the other is a bluish-gray.
  4. What fabulous memories, from that time. What an astonishing band. I need to tell the Snoozy story; I promised a friend. It's a good one. Those times have a certain energy, still attached to them. Give me a day and I'll flesh that out. Good times in Wilcoland.💗
  5. Here we see yet another eample of pandemic-related brain atrophy. Yes, I can count. I just briefly forgot how. Yes, it's 19 years old, not 20. Save the big parties for next April.
  6. This archive is not to be missed! What an amazing lot of work you've done!
  7. With YHF's birthday of 20 years ( yeeeeep, unimaginable!!) just past, my eyes have been straying often to this personalized treasure of mine. One of the first things I would save in a fire. I've actually made plans. Tell me a YHF memory. Any memory, from a live show or just listening at home. I'll tell you one. I saw Wilco the first time, touring on this album. That night they closed the little House of Blues with 3 encores. Lots of people left after the second encore, figuring they were done. It was post-Jay....lineup was Jeff, John, Glenn, and LeRoy Bach. The show had been mesmer
  8. Happy Earth Day all! I hope we can stop the damage we're doing to the old girl.
  9. In his defense, he was trying to throw it out of his backyard. With 18" BBQ tongs! Animal Control captured it with 5 foot long tongs. I hated Ray-gun years before the rest of the country. He was a shit governor. And yes, trump is very much his heir. Ah-Nold I liked better.
  10. Ok Mr. Heartbreak, point taken! Obviously it's not so much the people of Florida who drive me crazy, so much as the rotten politicians that operate there. And oh yes, everywhere else has its share of loons. There just seem to be a disproportionate number of these stories from your particular state. But that said, I know Florida is a gorgeous place, and I have dear friends who call it home and love her as you do. So apologies for ragging on your home. And true about CA... That guy who tried to pick up the rattlesnake with BBQ tongs is from right here in town. I understand his hand is bett
  11. That definitely looked like a baby dinosaur. My favorite news stories always seem to be about Florida Man or Florida Woman. Are there drugs in the FL water supply or what? As for Gaetz, it seems already like this story is fading away. I hope it doesn't. Creeps like him don't belong representing anybody.
  12. So please tell me this cretin won't be getting away with his crap? Will the GOP look the other way and hope the news moves on? Are these people ever going to be held to account? Politics (currently at least) suck. I understand he uses Venmo for all his minor purchases. Can I at least get a rim shot for that one? 🙂
  13. True! It's like a tornado hitting random houses on a block. Fortunately it passes quickly. Better vaccinated than the coughing, stranging alternative. I hope people will listen to their own good common sense and not some "I'm a prophet" evangelical yahoo.
  14. Waxahatchee is the stage name of songbird Katie Crutchfield. She's really talented. Her latest album is called "St. Cloud" and is one of the year's best, honestly. Try the songs "Lilacs" or "Can't Do Much". The entire album is great.
  15. I nabbed tickets today for Waxahatchee in September, at 2 venues I couldn't choose between...The First Congregational Church of Los Angeles on the 24th, then out in the boonies of Pioneertown at the legendary Pappy & Harriet's the following night. We're inbetween the 2 venues. Gonna be a lot of driving for a couple days! These may be my first forays back into live music. I can't wait, but it's going to be weird to have people close after avoiding them for over a year!
  16. I'm in the same spot, Maudie, only for the "postponed" L.A. shows last April.
  17. I've heard of this but never seen the video! I hope somebody can track it down.
  18. I'm still mourning the 3-show run I had tickets for last April, in L.A. Those shows were going to be Wilcoepic. Then Pandemia hit. I guess I need to finally let go of those shows. Besides, the ones ahead will be so exuberant and joyous, when they come. There will be big gratitude. So we move along. Some of you have live shows on your calendars already....I don't, but I'm fully vaxxed and beginning to dream again! Someday, someday soon. 😊 Who's already going to see something? Wilco, or other bands? Are you excited?!!
  19. She's such a beauty, and is probably Wilco's most ardent feline fan!
  20. Pedro had me laughing and then crying off and on the entire show last night!
  21. I'm sure your one-sleeve sweater is just lovely! Photos?
  22. It's harder than you think it's going to be, isn't it?! And really folks, you have to include ITMWLY. Trying to sequence this oddball collection would also be interesting...you'd need a powerhouse opening song, a good closing song, and reasonable pacing amongst the rockers and the ballads. Love the love for Secret of the Sea!
