  1. One By One?

    OK kids, enjoy ... I gotta get through the shower and go to class. Colonel, I hope your recording comes out well -- I'd love to hear the rest of this at some point.

     

    :wave

     

     

    Well as of right now, the signal is coming in as clear and clean as SBS itself, so barring any unforeseen internet crashes, we shall have a good one here.

     

    Jesus Etc.

  2. that's right, i've been up exactly thirty minutes and had to bitch.

     

    thanks wilco for being so amazingly generous with your fans.

     

    one by one! :wub

     

    You are absolutely right. No other band does these things for their fans. We are all spoiled. I told a music loving friend of mine who isn't yet into Wilco about my experience at the last Tweedy show at the Vic. We cant believe that almost every song he played was a fan request, including mine. He thought that was so awesome that he promised that he would check Wilco out.

     

    It was my fault for missing that webcast in the first place. That's really why i'm pissed... at myself.

  3. yep, definitely echo-y in here.

     

    I'm getting a frosty one, anybody else need one while I'm up?

    Fixed it for ya.

     

     

    I'll take one! Just go ahead and file transfer it to my computer. I'm gonna enjoy it.

     

     

    Wow, i really am delirious.

  4. Good luck with the recording! I'm not sure how long I'm gonna last, but I want to hear at least some of this webcast. Luckily tomorrow is a fairly slow day for me, so being all groggy shouldn't be a huge problem. :stunned

     

     

    Thanks! I've decided i'm gonna will my way through this if i have to. The second this concert ends, i'm going to sleep for a while, then watch the Bulls playoff game this afternoon.

     

    This is probably the strangest webcast of any i can remember due to the time difference. Imagine, we can wake up in the morning to hear a Wilco show! :D

     

    Cool...they're playing the Kinks! They've always played great warm up music for these things.

  5. It's easy! Take your also-a-night-owl son out for a two am driving lesson (actually a terrific time as you can do even the major thoroughfares with almost no traffic!) and then come home and putter around awhile to wear off the nerves from the driving!

     

    Actually the kid is proving to be an excellent driver. :thumbup

     

     

    I've just been messing around with the pc, making sure it's running nice and clean, so we can get a good recording of this thing...well that and Wilco-fed adrenaline are keeping me wide awake.

  6. gah...sod it...i've just spent the last hour trying to get it working. keeps recording these little clicks throughout - driving me nuts. i give up.

     

     

    Hmm...interesting. I wanted to try out audacity, but maybe i'll just stick with my old standby, Creative Sound Recorder. I was lucky to get that when i bought this computer, and i know it works. I hope the signal will come in clear and uninterrupted this morning. These Wilcoworld webcasts have had a history of cutting in and out.

     

    Thanks again for torrenting these last two shows! :thumbup

  7. eh. I'd rather not read anything by him or about him or see his picture. I don't think he should become famous, but rather forgotten.

     

    I realize there are things to learn from his story and that he was a sad person who needed help, but in the end I think we would all be better served to have his name and person (but not the event or victims) forgotten, for two reasons.

     

    1. You'll never be able to really make sense out of his actions, so what can we really learn?

    2. It's dangerous that we AND the media make him into a anti-hero of sorts, giving hope to the next troubled kid out there that people will notice him if he does this.

     

     

    Exactly what i was thinking. This was a killer who knew EXACTLY what he was doing when he starting planning this, sending the video in to NBC, knowing full well that it would be played over and over and that his so called "grievances" would be heard long after he was dead. His plan for twisted martyrdom worked perfectly. The media has to show more restraint in making stuff like this public. The 30 min. broadcast on NBC tonight was almost all Cho all the time. This is just not right. :no

     

    This will only inspire the next tragedy.

  8. I remember Jeff saying that YHF was originally supposed to come out on 9/11, but then it was postponed when the band left Reprise and had to find another record label.
