yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 As if we didn't already have enough to look forward to that day... What will they play? My vote is for What Light, or maybe Walken. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 i hope it's "Walken" i am thinking of organizing a listening party that evening in Chattanooga... now if I can find some more wilco fans! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I could come down. It's a 15 hour drive but I'm always up for hangin' with my fellow Wilcoers. Sarah, are you going to Bonnaroo? Charlotte is only a 5 hour drive, I'd rather go there. 'Roo would be fun, but with all the chaos and hippies and beer and whatnot it might get annoying really quickly.

SarahC Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I am not going to Bonnaroo simply because of the hippies, and I have heard conditions are really bad. I'd rather go see a full Wilco show in Atlanta. 15 hours is a bit much, but you could come down for the Son Volt show on the 14th and stay for a day or 2! I'm sort of laughing at how ironic (though not really) it will be to see Son Volt the day before the Wilco record comes out. I make a big deal everytime I wilco record comes out, like I go to the store with my wilco shirt on and look at the record and try to get people to buy it... it's crazy. (PS: I've had 3 shots of espresso this morning so i am sort of chatty...hah ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I brewed coffee at 9 and then saw the Letterman news on Wilcoworld. I will get up and fix a mug right now. That way we'll be wired together. I didn't realize Atlanta was that much closer than Charlotte. I should have though b/c I've taken I-81 to I-75 driving to Tampa. I was a bit delirious at dawn in the Smoky Mountains. What beautiful scenery though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Stewart Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I have it on extremely good authority that the band is going to play "Pieholden Suite" on this show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I heard that Jay Bennett was going to sing, "My Darlin'". since it sounds so much like Jeff, nobody will be able to tell the difference. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I heard that Jay Bennett was going to sing, "My Darlin'". since it sounds so much like Jeff, nobody will be able to tell the difference. Wow dude, you totally come off as one of those forum jerkoffs that doesn't value anyone else's opinion. I can't believe I'm allowing you to make me the least bit angry. I pity folks like you. I've just gone to The Palace at 4 A.M. on amazon and re-evaluated my thoughts. So Jay's voice is a bit deeper on "My Darlin". However, his version of "Shaking Sugar," AKA, "Alone," is terrific, just terrific. "Venus" too. Oh, and i said they sound alike, not look alike, so I think Wilco fans might "be able to tell the difference." Pieholden would be great. Maybe SarahC could join them onstage since she also does a good version. It sounds a lot like Jeff's version. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bhickman Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 What's this argument about? ^^^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 What's this argument about? ^^^ Whether or not Mr. Dover literally has something up his butt or if it's another factor that causes his bad attitude. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?s=&...st&p=858324 Good times. Personally, I hope they play "Dreamer in My Dreams," but know they won't. I'd settle for "Side with the Seeds." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?s=&...st&p=858324 Good times. Personally, I hope they play "Dreamer in My Dreams," but know they won't. I'd settle for "Side with the Seeds." "Seeds" is my second favorite. Maybe they'll do "Spiders" or "Passenger Side." The lead guitar in "Seeds" sounds so much like that of one Ernest "Trey" Anastasio of the Vermont based jamband Phish. This is a fact Dover, not my opinion. The way it slowly builds up to a crescendo exactly mirrors Trey's approach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Actually, I'm pretty sure that's your opinion also, but that's okay by me. It pains me that SWTS is probably my favorite song on Sky Blue Sky because of the guitar breakdown, which isn't usually my thing. I'm not interested in listening to jamband music again.

Analogman Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I think there have been several reviews stating that - I wish they would move in that direction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 Phish invented crescendos? Yep, and the electricity needed to play loud music too. I'm kidding about all this (see link above) to annoy Africandover. I'm also close to done with the jamband thing (with the exception of listening to occasional live Dead or even Phish). "Seeds" does "jam" though, IMO!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IrishMickyWard Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 how about a gig too Warsaw, Town Hall, Bowery Ballroom,....? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 how about a gig too Warsaw, Town Hall, Bowery Ballroom,....? Bowery would be awesome, Roseland too. They may announce a second NYC show (for Tues. 6/26) soon, I hope. That would be nice considering the first one sold out in like 2 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
