OOO Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I don't mean to be a boob and post this among all the other Sky Blue Sky reviews, but I thought some of you might like to keep abreast of Wilco news, so here is Jeff's stuff in Playboy. The interviewer erected a pretty good set of questions, and overall I found it to be very stimulating, although i must admit i would have preferred it orally rather than in print, since you really don't get Jeff's tone from this. Anyway... Intro Tweedy Interview review Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yankhotelfox Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Good times. I took a Joyce class and loved it. We didn't read Finnegan's Wake b/c my professor said it was way too dense and would require at least an entire semeseter to cover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

auctioneer69 Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 That's a great interview and a very fair review. I have to agree with Jeff's take on music and his distaste for the constant need to pigeonhole bands. Playboy is a quality publication. Their interviews and features are consistently as intelligent, revealing and worthwhile as any magazine out there. As it's such an establishment they don't have an axe to grind or a pretence to be tastemakers in any arena. If you get a chance: pick up an out-of-print book of the last unexpurgated interview that Playboy did with John Lennon in 1980. He is very candid on many subjects and gives very detailed accounts on who was the main contributor between him and McCartney on many Beatles songs.

dixiecupdrinker Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 As for dixiecupdrinker, your jokes indicate you have just hit puberty. Thanks for noticing. Wow, this is the first time ever I've ever been called out on VC. I feel flattered. You know, I only do it for the attention because I yearn for human interaction. Sorry to offend your mature sensibilities, auctioneer69. dcd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markosis Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 As for dixiecupdrinker, your jokes indicate you have just hit puberty. I totally agree. How absolutely childish. By the way, you forgot one overall I found it to be very stimulating Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChooChooCharlie Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 I'm a chick and don't have all that much experience with flipping through copies of playboy, but I have to say, I think I enjoyed this interview a lot better than some of the others I've read regarding SBS's release. I guess the smirk on my face won't be as evident next time someone claims to only read Playboy for the articles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

froggie Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 > someone who knew what they were talking about any MAY even have read this board "Tweedy: I'm finding out that it's as controversial if not more controversial than putting 10 minutes of noise after a record!" "Tweedy: You know what? I've figured out that there are a lot of people that have stuck around just to bitch about us! [Laughs] Maybe it's just such a joy to have a band that they like enough to kick around. I'm kidding, of course. But I have been on chat groups before and seen people complaining that things don't sound like A.M. And I think: how long have you been here? What are you still waiting around for?

NationalDust Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Porn magazines....how quaint.If I'm not mistaken, Hugh Hefner was the first to publish Ray Bradbury... It's not porn, really, and if anything it's really soft core. No pictures of women masturbating or people having anal sex, just nude women. In some areas, that's be considered art... Are there sex stories in it? I've never read one... maybe that could be considered porn, but only as much as a sleazy romance novel and peopl read those in the waiting room at the doctor's office Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bentonbourbon Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 I can't really put my finger on it ... I tried typing it out but there is no way it can come across the way I'm actually thinking it ...I think I'm just better off listening to the music ..when I listen to the music, I feel positive.. read interviews, feel negative.
