IRememberDBoon Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) With Nels connections to Mike Watt I think it would be a great song for them to do. Not to mention the song friggin RAWKS! Edited July 11, 2006 by IRememberDBoon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Groo Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) You gotta yell it real loud every 15 seconds. People love that. Edited July 11, 2006 by Groo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 You're gonna have to contend with my "DO MAKIN' THE FREEWAY!!!!" sign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Edie Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 You gotta yell it real loud every 15 seconds. People love that. Or if you decide that you don't want that song, try Henry and the H Bombs. Jeff loves requests for that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

embiggen Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 can anyone say 'turd in a punchbowl'? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Or if you decide that you don't want that song, try Henry and the H Bombs. Jeff loves requests for that.Or, you can always chat up the person next to you (especially poignant during those obnoxious slow numbers) or if you went to the show solo, break out your cell phone and tell all your friends who aren't there what's going on at the show!

Mr. Heartbreak Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 A guy in Florida yelled for "Screen Door" a bunch of times in 2002, and here was Jeff's response:"Sorry, but you came to see Wilco. We'll probably play some Uncle Tupelo songs, just not that one."Then they played New Madrid (much, much later in the show).Sooo, if you really want to hear New Madrid, try yelling Screen Door; if you really want to hear D. Boon, play the record. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was just planning on standing on the front row holding a greenpeace sized banner blocking everyone elses view of Sir Tweedy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 probably about the same odds as you getting a serious answer to this question. serious answer = zero chance therefore, enjoy the tune! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Groo Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I am very tempted to hold this sign up at Lollapalooza. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 0% Chance that they will ever play it, 33% chance that Tweedy will play it solo. actually, i just checked Wilcobase and it's never been played before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 tweedy played That year in 1997 after someone in the audience yelled out "no tupelo".... might do the trick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrRain422 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 IMO, "D. Boon" sounds like it should be a Meat Puppets song. Even the vocals sound like Curt Kirkwood. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 That song might very well be the low point of Still Feel Gone. Which, otherwise, is the best thing Uncle Tupelo ever did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zanelotti Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I like the sign idea (though I would not like to be sitting behind you!), and it certainly beats the endless requests from the audience during JTs shows. Is it just me or is that just plain annoying? It is bad when the rest of the audience must "shush" (sp?) the requesters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Aside from "If That's Alright," that song might very well be the low point of Still Feel Gone. Which, except for Anodyne, is the best thing Uncle Tupelo ever did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
