you ever seen a ghost? Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 i've always been hoping to have one. when i'm in my vehicle, i play it with the windows down, hoping someone will be all like "hey!" or something. -justin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilco LP #7 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I've exposed a lot of friends at school to the album that have fallen in love with it. There are people that were previously fairly indiff. to Wilco. Now I hear SBS everytime I go to a friends place. I never thought I'd see the day where other people were putting Wilco on all the time, but now it's a frequent occurence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

northern_comfort Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 The only time I picked up a person "hitchhiking" was last summer when a kid in the middle of nowhere was walking down the road and wearing a Wilco shirt. I was always afraid of picking people up but I though, "How much harm can a person wearing a Wilco shirt cause." Turned out that he didn't even know who Wilco was but his mother always buys "lame shirts" from the concerts she attends. He was in the car for 15 seconds when he said that and I almost kicked him out right then and there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wskitche Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 The Greenhouse Wow, that surprising. I was figuring either Red Door or somewhere in E. Nashville. Even though it has a jukebox, I was hoping you would say it was one of my favorite digs, the Villager. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 My buddy plays it alot at his skate shop in the mall. Not really surprising since I gave him the album but its cool he plays it there all the time. He plays some of the live shows I gave him there too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
you ever seen a ghost? Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 that's really sad actually. it's sad to listen to Wilco in the car? it's sad to think that it would be cool if somebody recognized great music and said "ah salud"? okay man. -justin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 My wife noticed "What Light" playing in a restaurant tonight. I was preoccupied with a baseball game, but heard the last few bars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yankhotelfox Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 My wife noticed "What Light" playing in a restaurant tonight. I was preoccupied with a baseball game, but heard the last few bars. You were watching the Brew Crew beat up on the Cardinals? I have Bill Hall on my fantasy team and he's been ice cold. Jeff Suppan was a great off-season pickup for them. I wish them well this season and would love to see them in the playoffs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cooperissup3r Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 the one time i listen to the radio (besides sports radio) they actually played some Wilco..What Light. it was neat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
