    Columbus Ohio Show

    This wasn't on a college campus, but in Cincinnati, tickets went up for grabs a day early for members of something. Cincinnati Arts Something or other. I bought tickets the next day, first day of the Wilco presale, and although they weren't nose-hair close, they were still fair.

    Neil Young

    Are the versions that different than the ones we know and love? I've never heard this before.

     

    Powderfinger, Hold Back the Tears and Human Highway are solo acoustic (although the last two have backing vocals ...)

    Sedan Delivery is very slow and plodding, kind of unlistenable. Peace of Mind is a rock band version, possibly the Horse, at least it sounds like Ralph on drums. Very ragged.

     

    Will to Love, Like a Hurricane and Look Out for My Love are either the album versions, or different mixes of the same take. Thanks Anodyne! :thumbup

    You peeps that have seen Wilco a bunch of times...

    KT is a great sounding record, and is a nice snapshot of the band at that time. I've mentioned this before, but seeing how it was their first official live release I really wish that there was more stuff from the first 3 records. At least 75% of what's on there is YHF/AGIB stuff. Nothing wrong with that I just wish it was a little more comprehensive.

     

    For this reason alone I wonder how long it will be before we get another live Wilco record. How many does Neil have? 7 or 8? It would be cool if they put something else out in a couple of years, and dug a bit farther into Being There. headbang.gif

     

    I'm glad we got a live one with the mighty six lineup!

    aster pussycat fans???

    Faster Pussycat was my favorite band for a pretty long stretch when I was into metal in the 5th & 6th grade. I was always kind of proud of the fact that even as a little kid I was able to distinguish the difference between FP who are probably like a 2 or a 3, and someone like Poison who's a zero. (I did like Poison too though)

    Haha, I guess I should have known that asking for suggestions would yield a ton of different opinions... :D

     

    Thanks to everyone for weighing in. I think I will pick up Daydream Nation given its quintessential status, and either Goo or Sonic Nurse (given my O'Rourke love).

     

    Those three would be great to start with. Great band.

    Daydream Nation is good. It's considered "quintessential" by most sources, for what it's worth. Plus it's a double album, so you get your bucks worth. For some reason though, I'd probably put Goo slightly above it. It may not be the "avante punk no-wave masterpiece" that DN is, but pound for pound, it's got some of my favorite shit on it. Of the O'Rourke albums, I like Sonic Nurse the best. Rather Ripped, man all you can say is it's rather good!

     

    I'd start with Daydream Nation. Then buy Goo and Sister at the same time. Then Dirty and Evol, and work your way backwards and forwards simultaneously at increasing intervals. :thumbup

    Nels in new issue of Guitar Player

    in Just A Fan

    Nels is interviewed about playing with Wilco in the new Guitar Player magazine. Lots of music theory, but definitely worth reading. The solo for You Are My Face was recorded in his boxer shorts!

     

    Also, Jeff's solo for spiders was voted one of the 40 most beatifully reckless guitar solos in history. I have to agree with that one.

    6/14/07 - Cincinnati - Aronoff

    I sure as hell hope so. In addition to the great music I want to hear a couple things Jeff said that I couldn't quite make out (favorite quote that I did hear: "adjust yourself to that reality" when the owl dropped down)

     

    When he tried on the bling, he said something about posting it on dadrock.com
