Beltmann Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 My wife read a book called Blue Like Jazz, and reported to me that the author makes many Wilco references, and even included the band in the opening letter of thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smokestack Joe Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 the Showtime show Shameless referenced Wilco a lot in their latest episode. It was funny, they kinda ripped the band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moxiebean Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 They played "I Got You (At the End of the Century)" during the outro of MSNBC's Morning Joe on Monday, leading up to inauguration coverage. I have to admit it brought a tear to my eye. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
worldrecordplayer Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 the Showtime show Shameless referenced Wilco a lot in their latest episode. It was funny, they kinda ripped the band. "Wilco, isn't that a band with a bunch of followers with receding hairlines." Then Lipp runs a scam where he gets the word out to all the "northsiders" that Wilco is doing a secret club gig and he runs a valet parking scam. It was a riot.

TCP Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I recently heard "Hate It Here" in a super market. I didn't know whether to be stoked or a little concerned.(Hey this is my first post in two years!!!). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plumplechook Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 'Country Disappeared' at the end of recent episode of the weekly US public radio show 'This American Life'. Sounded beautiful and poignant - at the end of a story about Dakota Indians being driven out of Minnesota in the 1860s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Queen Amaranthine Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Not fully on this thread topic, and arguably a bit of a stretch, but isn't that Jeff Tweedy on the cover of Indie Fuzz that Wendy is reading in a recent episode of Gravity Falls? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 'Country Disappeared' at the end of recent episode of the weekly US public radio show 'This American Life'. Sounded beautiful and poignant - at the end of a story about Dakota Indians being driven out of Minnesota in the 1860s.I started looking for this and discovered it's an episode from 11/25/2012. Looks like you're as far behind on listening to your podcasts as I am, Plumplechook! Thanks for the notification, though--this was an episode I had inadvertently skipped over.

Scott Gyrrr Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Heard I might in the Dixo - Mexico City time out guide. I love hearing all the places the band gets played and always find it weird when I hear them and I´m not the one who has pressed the play button. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smells like flowers Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I fell asleep while watching a movie last night and woke up to "Mountain Bed." Not sure if it was just a coincidence, or if hearing the song woke me up. The film was 180 South, a documentary about some high adventure-types rock-climbing and surfing in Patagonia. The moment was sweetly serendipitous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pennyghael Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Way back in 2005/6, Someone Else's Song played during the early hours in the Inverness (Scottish Highlands) branch of Tesco. Must have been from a compilation as no other Wilco followed. The person who played the track was no doubt sacked the following day following complaints from the other insomniac shopper who was in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cold as Gasoline Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 This morning went to my local coffee shop for a cup of joe and the cute guy who works the counter was whistling along to "Forget the Flowers"...and all was right with the world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cold as Gasoline Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Watched the documentary about the formation of the Punch Brothers called "How to Grow a Band" and the former bassist was wearing a Wilco t-shirt in his interview segments, to my delight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heart full of holes Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Someone's in the kitchen with Wilco.... The frying process has to occur in a few batches, since the biggest mistake you can make while frying is to overcrowd your ingredients in the oil. This means caponata demands a leisurely attitude, more “I Am Trying to Break Your Heart” than “Kamera.” It’s a weekend-afternoon project, not a weeknight one—and, appropriately, it’s the perfect thing to serve atop bruschetta at your next weekend cocktail party. http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2013/06/06/eggplant_caponata_recipe_why_the_sicilian_spread_is_the_best_use_for_eggplant.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Firecracker Kid Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 The Whole Love is playing in its entirety as pre-show tunes for The Staves concert at The Parish in Austin. The crowd full of 17-year old girls don't seem to appreciate it. Ah, the ignorance of youth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
