  1. pretty good show...probably the worst Wilco show i've been to but that is by no means a bad thing. i agree the crowd didnt really seem to be into it and the set list was pretty run of the mill...i was hoping for some surprises. solid show none the less.
  2. i actually quite enjoyed a number of those songs as well... i think the reason that they are so polarizing isnt because they are "doing something right" but rather Billy Corgan is a rediculous person who has really presented himself as a bit of a prick and a real whack job, most notably with his full page ad in the sun or whatever.
  3. alright, EL Chinese, conversation over. i agree with most of what you are saying i just kind of think this whole thing, including SP in general, is lame.
  4. i had tickets to this show in my basket! then realized it was a 21+ show i hate being 19 (que up some Cure song) yes!
  5. if i recall correctly jay-z had an unplugged as well (post-LL i believe) if i recall correctly jay-z's unplugged was fucking awesome
  6. well the Indigo Girls will be there...you got me hooked
  7. obviously i realize that this is the most profitiable way to go about things, i just think its bordering on being tasteless and unethical. and since i doubt there will be any SP records after this one i guess they dont have to worry about burning any bridges behind them or maybe SP fans dont really care (i mean, they are buying a new record from the smashing pumpkins).
  8. i mean, if i liked smashing pumpkins enough to buy zeitgest (i do not) and knew i could get some bonus tracks at an indie store for a few bucks more than, say, Best Buy (who was only offering the regular version) i would go to the indie store and i think most music fans would too. the logic in this case is just backwards. also, i revoke my previous statement of saying the biggest travesty is the disservice to indpendent retailers and change that statement to say the biggest travesty here is the fact that the smashing pumpkins (or should i say "the smashing pumpkins") are releasing a record, al
  9. pretty much true (IMHO, of course) ... i think the main travesty here is the disservice to independent retailers... but the pumpkins are a major label band who are not that good and i would be surprised if zeitgest sold more than 777 copies anyway
  10. well wilco doesn't have a fan club, there are wilcoworld presales but you dont have to pay to get in on them and ticket prices are never different from regular prices so maybe you can call this guy out for being full of it.
  11. im familar with reason and can tell you if you have a decent MIDI controller you can do a lot of really awesome stuff with that program
  12. definitely white buying a red guitar makes you look like you are trying to compenate for something just kidding...but white is way more badass in my opinion

  14. this is a funny image for me
  15. ive got my boss playing AGIB in the office...another convert perhaps? edit: we've switched back to snow patrol
  16. seriously, could they even sell out half of MSG? anyways are they coming out with a new record or something? i bought their most recent on the power of the first single (end of the world) and was really dissapointed with the record
  17. I would say the most important track is somewhere in the middle. It is important to keep attention and an awesome track somewhere in the middle of a record can hold listeners out until the end.
  18. well if you go for ryan, ill take your warsaw tix!
  19. As has been proved before and restated by this photo, Pat is not in Wilco.
  20. nice! im still trying to find regular tix for this show
  21. STS9 seems like a lot of fun. That kind of music is generally not my thing but I am definitely going to try to catch them at Lolla and maybe this aftershow.
  22. I thought this was an interesting look at the band in its current state but as a movie it was pretty dull. Watched it with a bunch friends (about half of which were pixies fans) no one really liked it.
  23. FWIW here is a list of aftershows for the Lolla weekend, courtesy of the lollapalooza message boards: Wednesday Peter Himmelman - Schuba's 8:00 PM 21+ $25 (http://www.schubas.com/) Thursday Galapalooza with Spoon and Paulo Nutini - Petrillo Music Shell 6:00 PM All ages $350+ (http://parkways.org/) Peter Himmelman - Schuba's 8:00 PM 21+ $25 (http://www.schubas.com/) Soulive - Double Door 10:00 PM 21+ $20 (http://www.doubledoor.com/shows.php) Sparklehorse
