Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Heard "Hate it Here" blasting from a radio as I walked past a crew working on a house. Took that as a sign that I should buy my plane ticket to Solid Sound and did just that! Heh...you're more likely to hear Lo Muncho Que Te Quero passing by a construction site.

The Inside of Outside Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 "One Wing" at a Hannaford grocery store in Yarmouth, Maine, yesterday afternoon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
suites Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Maybe on this already but too lazy to look back: On How I Met Your Mother, Ted said he had the new Wilco CD to lure girls up to his apartment. When he got there Barney broke the CD. At the very end they played Passenger Side for like 30 seconds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Amaranthine Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I've heard Wilco at Starbucks and Barnes & Noble. Wilco is often played at Being There, a lovely little coffee house owned by a friend of mine! The most surprising place I've heard Wilco is at Hy-Vee grocery store (any other rural Midwesterners here?!). For a long time Hy-Vee used to play alt music, you know, how grocery stores play background music. Wilco, Josh Rouse, the Shins, etc. Then one day Hy-Vee switched to bad 70s radio tunes (BTO--WTF?). Then it went to 80s pop and now some more recent stuff is mixed in, including Coldplay. (Sorry for the digression there). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JethroNC Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 "One Wing" at a Hannaford grocery store in Yarmouth, Maine, yesterday afternoon. I heard "One Wing" at my local grocery store Friday night (Food Lion in Hillsborough, NC). I heard it a year ago at the local Home Depot, too. Slightly off-topic: Sunday afternoon I heard Son Volt "Medicine Hat" at a Lowes Foods in Raleigh, NC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I heard some Wilco the last time my wife and I were in Nordstrom. I think it was One Wing or maybe Impossible Germany. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doug Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Heard "Pot Kettle Black" in a Which Wich sandwich shop in Columbia, SC today. Never was a big fan of that song, but boy did it sound good! I think it's time to revisit YHF, which I haven't listened to in probably 5 years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ben Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I was just reading the book Compass of Pleasure by David Linden which is about the pleasure centers of the brain and addiction. I was hardly expecting a brief discussion of tweedy. It was about how after he quit drugs he became addicted to running and ended up with two fractured legs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JethroNC Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I heard it in my local Food Lion as well. (Columbia, SC) They must have a standard mix. I mean, Wilco in Columbia? Really? I heard "Forget the Flowers" last night in Raleigh at a Lowes Foods...the same one where I heard "Medicine Hat" a few weeks ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also heard "Either Way" in my local indy theater.P.S. Have you ever been to Columbia, SC, and not just for a brief moment? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well the music scene has really picked up in the past 6 years. We just had the new artist "Washed Out" have his Album release party here, he's either somewhere else on the tour as of now or he's back in NYC. Also look up Tori Y Moi and a lesser known band named The Restoration.p.s. None of these bands sound like Wilco.p.s.s. God Damn Those Trains!!! I going to be an insomniac before I move out this town.

sonicshoulder Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I Might-89.7 WNKU Northern Kentucky. I had it about as loud as my truck can handle. Brings up a discussion(not that this song is one of them but) songs you might skip over if they come up on random on the Ipod but when they come across the radio dial it makes your day.

Sparky speaks Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 "We've Been Had" Uncle Tupelo at the Silver Dollar Bar and Grill in Jackson, Wyoming, Wednesday afternoon, while eating lunch on a side trip from Yellowstone while on a family vacation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smells like flowers Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 "One Wing" in Publix today. Don't particularly care for the song, but it's still a thrill to hear Wilco in the grocery store. I had a Wilco t-shirt on, too, so it felt even more serendipitous. Can't WAIT for next month's shows and The Whole Love...it's like Christmas is coming, only better - I know I'm going to like my presents! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
