Mr. Heartbreak Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 If somebody really wanted to make a compilation that would embarrass him, it would have to include a clip from 3/25/98. After he played a couple of Woody Guthrie songs, he mentioned Woody to the audience and said the next Wilco album would be something like "the complete poems of Jim Morrison." Then he said, "We're going to start with him and then work our way to Robert Blake and Apollinaire and all those guys."Pretty sure he meant William Blake. Although, who knows, maybe Robert Blake was making a big splash on the poetry scene with such great works as "You Can Take Dat to Da Bank." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
luke Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Are you guys just going for the light hearted "cock-like" banter? Or also including when he rips audience members a new one for any number of reasons? I'd like to hear, among others, "I'll kick you in the fucking head"( the "I'm not a monkey in a cage photo taking incident of 2004), or "You wanna hear Casino Queen? Really? Well we're not gonna play it. Or the recent show where he tells the guy he's trying hard not to hate him cause he's acting like an ass, it was earlier this year, but he really went off on the guy. Or the pre-election 2004 show in Denver where he discusses the relevance between living people and cells in a petri dish. I think his tangents are as entertaining as the music. They should be included in this compilation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Too bad there is no (that I know of) tape of the Albany solo show - Jeff and some pressed slacks wearing dude traded banter back and forth for several minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MunkyKayse Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I wish I could remember his exact words, but I loved his discourse during the show at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley about how "angry" the hippies on Telegraph had (have) become. On behalf of most of the locals I'd have to say we agree--just 'cause you're a white dude with dreadlocks doesn't mean you inherit the 60's ideal. It may have been "counter culture" when you were in college, but now it's just sad--get a job! I remember that. I remember him saying that he sounded/or was turning into his father. I also enjoyed Jeff holding his gut and telling everyone he quit smoking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 his story that went something like he was reading the band list and it said "Medication 6:30. Jeff Tweedy 7:00" something like that. I think it was at Martyrs or something I really have no idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobfrombob Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 My favorite was from a Fillmore show; I'm paraphrasing but "Some of our favorite shows have been here....... Electric Flag, Country Joe and the Fish, Grateful Dead" [probably not the right bands but you get the idea] "Don't go away; the Rolling Stones are up next" And if this is banter and not strictly comedy, calling Toronto fans motherf**kers should make the cut Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MKHstudios Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 A good two-part banter that sticks out in my head (because I was laughing)... It was during one of the two Fillmore shows this past January. A couple in the front row was asking Jeff to attend their upcoming wedding. After not accepting they started to sweeten the pot by yelling out that they would cover his airfare. Jeff replied something like 'I don't need you to buy me a ticket - I got money coming out of my ass'... Later in the night, Jeff was telling his Ameoba Records story (which was well detailed on this board in Feb). When he got to the part in that story about not wanting to take a cab back to Ameoba (having walked earlier). Claiming the cab ride would cost more than the CD he was missing.... right on cue ....the same guy who was asking Jeff to attend the wedding yells out "I thought you had money coming out of your ass?" The place roared. Jeff had a few more lines, but timing is everything and this guy 'killed'. I recorded that night and would be happy to supply these bits to this project (another copy was circulated on bt.etree) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Ok - I just spent a couple of hours on this - I have 13 tracks from the following shows: 7/01/05, 7/13/05, 11/13/05, 11/18/05, 6/21/03, 6/6/04, 6/26/05. Note - I did not include any talk of the abyss or whatever - I find it to personal - if you want that on there - you will have to submit it. If anyone has any tracks they want to be on this project I suggest you send them as Mp3 files to me or Mr. whatdisay. I would prefer you name the tracks as: Wilco (or Jeff Tweedy)_7_09_06 (example). I think we should do it this way, and then have a Micorsoft Word file that will list all the tracks, dates, and a description of what is on the track. I do not have photoshop or the means to make inlay/tray artwork - so maybe someone would like to do that when we are finished. If anyone has any other ideas, please share them with us.

Atticus Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Thanks to everyone for all the input so far. For those of you who may be sending multiple tracks (at least if you're going to send them to me), I'd prefer that you use the format below, as it will help me to eliminate duplications. I suggest that you send your files (in .mp3 format) named as follows: year.month.day.location(relative to song).songtitle e.g.: 2005.06.28.pre.Hummingbird (when banter is before tune, but included in track)2005.06.28.post.Hummingbird (when banter is after tune, but included in track)2005.06.28.mid.Hummingbird (when banter is in the middle of a tune)2005.06.28.standalone (if the banter is its own track) That way I'll be able to store all the files in an easy-to-organize format, and duplications will make themselves apparent. If you have already edited the banter out of the track, please let me know in your email or posting, so they don't go in my "to be edited" stack. Please send any submissions to tweedybanter@sbcglobal.net or just post them here, with a link to whatever site you're using to post the files. Should be a good compilation in the end. I welcome any and all suggestions on ways to make this easier, quicker, better, etc. --Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
