Lee Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I haven't gotten the DVD yet--I know, bad, bad, Wilco fan--but I'm wondering as to what this thing holds? Could someone enlighten me? Are there any special features like extra songs or interviews with Jeff? Is it just a straight concert DVD, or are is there a documentary kick to it too. I'm hoping to pick it up this week, but I'm dying to know what it is all about. Thanks -N It's sort of half way between a documentary and a concert movie. It follows him on a leg of his solo tour. Some backstage and travelling stuff, in between portions of concerts. The only bonus feature is that you can download ("free" or "not free," depending on your firmly held convictions either way) .mp3's of the songs in the dvd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TakiSC Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 This is one of the most pointless arguments I've ever had the misfortune to read Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IamJacksName Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 The argument over whether they're free is indeed pointless to me. You have to have the DVD either way, right? Stop arguing semantics . . . I freaking hate that. I'm more interested in whether the downloads are working yet. They're not for me. I'm still getting a "This file is not a movie file" error when I click on the "Extras" icon. Are people actually getting the downloads to work now, or is this some kind of problem that's happened with my computer? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 They were working for a time last night, and then not working again this morning. I managed to get 10 of the 24 tracks, so I'm going to give it another shot when I get home tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DogsPlayingPoker Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Um, I just emptied my bulk mail folder at Yahoo and as I did, I noticed an e-mail from Wilco HQ....anyway they can resend that message? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IamJacksName Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I just got another email from Wilcoworld telling me how to get a direct link to download all the songs in a zip file. Everybody check your email if you had previously requested a notification. Seems to be working great . . . . downloading quite fast, at least. Thanks very much for all of your patience Wilcoworld!

chriscolbert Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I was able to download them all on my lunch break finally. It was a little obnoxious by not having the option to download them all with one click, but overall is wasn't that bad. Thanks again guys for the added bonus! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wilco hq Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 we will be adding a button to the interface to download everything as one large file shortly. as the downloads were taking so long before we fixed the server issues, it would have literally taken days to download the full 134MB. Getting the servers fixed and the download speeds better was our first priority. wilco hq Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 It worked for me, yaaaaah. It will be quicker soon when they put all the tracks into one larger file. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

leebgb Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I bought the dvd and it was the first time I've ever heard "Radio King" which is a great song. Is there a studio recording of this song on a single, ep, etc. or is it one that hasn't been recorded? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
