  1. I always want to say, "Wilco is what rock music should sound like." But then I remember what I usually think of as rock (and what my friends think of as rock) and then I realize, Wilco is nothing like that. Labels are tricky, Cuz Wilco isn't really what some think of as Rock. But I hate the label "Alternative." :rolleyes

    Had a proffessor once who always wanted to know what Alternative music was. Someone would tell him it was like Rock only different. He would then explain his confusion. "Rock music is a singer, two guitarists, a bass player and a drummer, and then Alternative music is a singer, two guitarists, a bass player, AND a drummer." :D

     

    anyways, now whenever someone asks me what kind of music wilco is i just reply, "the good kind."

  2. I really appreciate you posting these vids Hixter, But i cant get it to play in any of my video softwares ( quicktime, wmp, real player, or DIVX ) to play these files, and usually they do fine with AVI's. I tried the software you suggested but I cannot access the site.

    Any other suggestions?

    Could anyone perhaps convert this file to one thats more universal (or point me to where I could?)

     

    Thanks for any help!

  3. Towards the end of Walken I noticed they all kinda were looking at eachother realizing, "We just kicked ass on SNL!" I enjoyed watching them lap in the last few moments of the song!

    I couldn't help but think

     

    "Those are my boys!"

     

    wow...

    now commencing search for a life...

     

    :worship

  4. I didn't mind standing in line. I would have never heard a chicago police officer blasting I AM TRYING TO BREAK YOUR HEART on his loudspeaker while driving by, and then declairing, "We've had a few complaints of loud noise!"

    Good times...

  5. jefftweedysmousse,

    Did you happen to be the chap with the conductor's hat?

    Don't mean to sound creepy, but if you were than i was standing next to you the whole concert completely jealous of all the awesome pics you took!

    ... I forgot my camera :ohwell

  6. Ive been downloading the 2 15 08 Boot for the past day and its only got 10%!!! Is it this slow for everyone, or does the fact that I'm on a college campus make a difference. I can understand bandwith limmiting, but im lucky if i get 1kb/s over here!!!!

    I could get it mailed faster! :ohwell

  7. This whole residency thing has had me thinking about the sequencing of songs in the half dozen wilco shows I have seen and the dozens of shows I have in recorded form. My favorite opening song seen live would have to be Hell Is Chrome with the lone spot on jeff's face and the rest of the band coming in at "it was chrome". That song never connected with me until I saw it live, now it still is one of my favorites. I also always enjoy misunderstood as the opener. Anyone else have any thoughts.

     

    I totally agree!!! Wilco was my first rock concert and Hell Is Chrome was the opening song. Amazing!!!!! :dancing
