  1. We should do a kickstarter or pledge music campaign for this to happen
  2. I can't decide which guitar would be more awesome, this one, or the SG. Gah, if I win the lottery I would get both. So pretty, and I bet equally a joy to play.
  3. I want to buy one of these guitars so bad.
  4. It practically impacted my back yard about 5-6 years ago. For a while we'd had really shitty neighbors. They practically ignored their kids, and a lot of times the 2 youngest would come over to our house and ask to "borrow" milk/bread/sandwich meats. They had no supervision whatsoever, and one time my mom found one of the kids in the middle of the street laying down. She asked her what was going on, and the little girl said she was hoping to get run over to "meet Jesus and run away from mommy". My mom called the police. My dad had also noticed a lot of in/out traffic over at their place, and
  5. Remember the mad dash to the front in Santa Barbara? That's the only time I've been front row at a Wilco show.
  6. Maybe I am a bit over zealous. I just really, really want to be front row. When did people start lining up for the GA Chicago shows (though I guess it is AL and not IL... so there's probably a big difference) At the Avett Brothers show we saw in December, this drunk floozy got in front of me, and my sister (4 years younger than me, which makes it all the more awesome and slightly embarrassing) threatened to knock her teeth out if she didn't move. The girl moved.
  7. My husband and I will be attending our first GA Wilco show at Sloss Furnace next week. So, I was wondering if any of you guys experienced with GA shows could give us some tips. I have been to 1 GA show before in Berkley back in 2007, but nerfherder (Collin) and I lucked out into a second row spot. How early is early enough to ensure front row? We were thinking 7am. Do we just run like hell to the front of the stage when they open the gate? I emailed Sloss Furnaces to ask them what the procedure was for GA shows, and they didn't really say much, except "get here early" I know i'm p
  8. How does a living room show newbie break into the scene? That's what I am wondering. I'm saving money now in hopes of making a show in 2013...
  9. I bet the first few shows they close with 'the weight' or 'i shall be released' I am so so so so so so pumped for the show in 2 weeks. almost 2 weeks exactly in fact. we are camping out all day at the venue to ensure front row status. :rock :rock :hyper :hyper :D i think those little guys accurately express my emotion. I hope they had a good break, really, because that means they will rock extra hard. Been requesting A Magazine Called Sunset every day for like 2 weeks now with different reasons why I love the band in the comment section. hope it makes whoever reads those comment
  10. I figured I would share this here. I have to turn it in tomorrow and read it aloud in my Creative Writing class. Thought some of you might like to read it. Thanks Sarah “He Almost Killed Me Dead” It was a typical, rainy and grey November day in 1999. I had been summoned to the main office of Soddy-Daisy Middle School for a mysterious early afternoon pick up. As I waited for my mother, I mulled over the reasons for my early departure.I fidgeted in the plastic waiting room chair. It wasn’t the dentist. I ran my tongue over the braces on my top teeth. It wasn’t a doctor’s appointment. I
  11. I remember going to the store and getting it the day it came out. It was one of those rare times my mom took me to the mall on a school night. Can't believe that was 10 years ago... the songs are so timeless.
  12. If anybody wants to tune in, Rosie (TweedyzGirl) is doing a tribute to Levon right now. http://www.wdbx.org/
  13. He doesn't seem too happy to be on Letterman... I love the Beatles.
  14. It depends, also, what seats in the venue you are occupying. I got vulgar slurs yelled at me in the Obstructed View section of the Ryman balcony back in the fall. Sort of ruined the show for me. Hope the crowds are nicer where you see them.
  15. I hope somebody posts who is going and/or who went. It's always interesting to read the set list.
  16. It does seem a bit to "slow", doesn't it? That was my chief complaint about it when I listened to the stream on NPR.
  17. Wow, that was a fast response: Hi Sarah, Thanks for contacting Front Gate Tickets! We have not received the ticket stock for this particular show. As soon as we do, your order will ship via UPS and a tracking number will be sent to your e-mail with further tracking details. If you do not have your tickets at least 72 hours prior to the event, please contact us. Thanks, Greg
  18. Working on an email now. I like to be overly polite in emails to companies about things I bought. It works better than being an ass hat about 85% of the time.
  19. I don't know. I've only ever used them once a couple years ago.
  20. Has anyone gotten the tickets for any of the upcoming shows in the mail yet? Anxiously awaiting my 2 for B-ham on May 11. Just curious if I should contact Frontgate about it yet, or wait.
  21. End of argument here. Most perfect piece of 70's music.
