Froggie glad you are getting some Wilco love down there! Try and go to the Brisbane show too! The wife and I had a great time there and I think you said you have not visited Brisbane before so it is worth the visit with a Wilco concert as a bonus!!! Anyway hope all is going well!

U2 - 360 Degrees Tour "Cheap Seats"
remphish1 replied to auctioneer69's topic in Someone Else's Song
I had a cheap seat at Giants Stadium in NJ and I was dead center not behind the band. They actually have full view seats at the $30 price but they are hard to get. If it plays into your decision at all they do move around to all areas of the stage and those seats behind the stage aren't 100% terrible. -
Aww good luck with the baby! Maybe the baby will come early and you will get a night off to recoup with some Wilco! Anyway best of luck! PS...wow tickets are expensive in Japan...the equivelent of $80 and they have a drink charge at the door! I wonder how big the venues there are!

Ha you are seeing the ones I couldn't! Anyway you also may be seeing the E-Street Band too for the last time as it currently is. Enjoy it and report back here after the show! I will be living vicariously through reviews!

Bob you going to the show!? I am jealous of anyone at this show! This was the one I was waiting for! I can't make it though I will need to hear this boot! Wow! Also...how can this album not be played in NEW JERSEY! The album was inspired by and written here, no?! I did have a good run as I now have heard, Born to Run, Darknes, The River and BITUSA live!

A Thread for Musical Blasphemy you Truly Believe
remphish1 replied to hardwood floor's topic in Someone Else's Song
Since there are so many on here that believe Radiohead have gone downhill or suck I will say my piece on Radiohead. Radiohead is better than Wilco (not by much though but Sky Blue Sky, W(TA) didn't help their cause in my book)! My three favorite bands are REM, Radiohead then Wilco! Radiohead are not overrated and deserve all the praise they get. Pablo Honey is awesome too! -

Heh it supposed to be blasphemy...in an aside I don't mind Guided by Voices I just don't get the hype!! If I believe correctly you hate REM post 87 and that is blasphemy to me -

I don't get Guided by Voices...I even seen them twice in concert (both festivals) and bought Bee Thousand and I think they are very overrated. Also NMH is too! Jeff Magnums voice grates me.... Also Toad the Wet Sprocket (Band name is dumb though) is freaking genius...and underrated! Brilliant songwritting... Bread and Circus their first album came out when Glen Phillips was 17! Pale and Fear are very solid and Coil was magnificient too! They still get heavy rotation in my collection. -

I like REM's Reveal, Around the Sun and Accelerate better than W(TA), Ghost and Sky Blue Sky.... PS I Still really like those Wilco albums but wish I could combine those 3 albums into 1. -
In the NYC area Wilco plays venues usually from 5,000-15,000 people..this summer they played at Keyspan Field which is 15,000 I think.

AM is an awesome album! I would want them to go back to that style..WE NEED MORE LAPSTEEL, BANJO!

Your favorite 80's American "college rock" band

Guess who mine is...... -
Nice..I was at the show last night in Montclair, NJ and he was getting over a cold. He still belted out some wild notes! Guy can still sing! I enjoyed hearing his takes on the Who songs. Was a good night!

I just booked! I stumbled upon a deal too good to pass up! I did book a package with hotel in Cusco but maybe I will spend the night in Aguas still...JFF what time of year did you go? Also how crowded does it get from the day trippers midday? Also how long did the climb take for Wanya Picchu?
-
Thanks! Just the type of info I was looking for!
-
Just looking for some pointers...Anyone go before? How many days did you spend in Cusco? Did you hike or take the train? Altitude sickness a problem? Any pointers would be appreciated!

I loved Aerosmith when I was 9. Pump and Get a Grip were awesome. I saw them live on the Nine Lives tour and at the time I had fun. After that I stopped listening to them and starting listen to Wilco...rest is history as they say. As far as Tyler quitting I wonder if he was holding on until they did that show in Hawaii they got sued for. If he didn't do that show they would have owed $$$!
