i love these loft pictures, because you can be as obsessive as you want without actually scaring anyone! it's neat to see an inside veiw of the place many of us will never see in person. also, while we are on the subject, the mighty boosh is hysterical. my sister and i watch episodes through on demand thing our cable provider has.

just read through the thread. how sad. i thought it would share my jay bennett story... he came through chattanooga when i was 16, my dad was really cool and took me to see the show. they were having technical problems that night, and we ended up having to leave before even seening jay play/ however, my dad had talked to the sound guy, and asked if jay would sign my copy of palace. dad and i were sitting at this table, and jay actually came and sat down and talked with us for the better part of an hour. we talked about music and i told him i was learning to play the guitar and he told me to

You can find the Berkeley show over at Owl and Bear for free and it's a matrix of the roadcase and audience recordings... probably my favorite show of the 3 I was at that tour...

My email is sarahchastain17(at)gmail.com the ELO I am missing is Out of the Blue, and No Answer, I had another record too but I can't recall the name (I only listened to it once)...

Thanks A-Man! I am still missing all the Beach Boys stuff... managed to find almost everything else I lost save for some live shows. I did get the particular Wilco shows I was looking for thanks to some awesome VC'ers.

I would love to get the home answering machine one! As if my friends need any more of a reason to think I am Wilco-crazy!

I think we should all put our usernames on the shirts! Instant name tags for shows!

nice to see they have applecare!

yeah that is true, but I sure will be sad if it happens. Is this the longest span a line-up of wilco has been together?

also, the double tracked vocals on "Solitaire" are fantastic... with headphones on it feels like Jeff is singing right at me!

i sure hope not.

i reckon it might be my favorite song on the record.

i agree. the melody to this song is gorgeous. ahhhh what i would give to write a song remotely close to this!

i also did a google map search, and it was a camel farm!

wilco could play mode scales on kazoos with nels playing spoons and i would buy the record and love it....

thanks whoever edited my post... forgot we're not supposed to mention that anymore...

the loft section is really cool. i snooped around on there for about 20 minutes

poor taste. jay bennett would have been way funnier.

just finished listening to the whole thing. 1st impressions- the drumming on Everlasting might be my favorite drum track on any wilco song ever. and the ending def should have been at least a minute longer. it reminds me of the noise at the end of reservations. bull black nova reminds me of waking up from a horrible dream, in the best way possible it's gonna take about 50 listens to really get a good grasp of this sucker. i'm gonna take the long way home from work tonight to listen to it in the car. Sarah PS- thank you Wilco! I

the artwork made me smile... it's nifty. never would i have thought a camel would be on the cover of a wilco record.

I will most certainly call you for that!

has it leaked yet?

thanks ya'll!!! it was a great day. i got to hang out with some of my very favorite people and got treated to a couple really nice meals over the weekend and today. went out with my birthday money today and bought some chaco sandals.
