bobbob1313 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 The performance of "Was I In Your Dreams" on Tuesday night is one of my favorite things ever. So fucking soulful. That was an incredible arrangement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigshoulders Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Max, Thanks for adding an element that we no doubt would be missing had Jeff not made the 11th hour decision to add a horn section. To hear that you arranged the parts in such a short span of time is absolutely remarkable. It was good meeting you at the Fat Cat and I hope you were able to get the grenadine stain off your tuxedo shirt from Tuesday night. Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Max is probably being a bit modest by not sharing the fact that he had about 36 hours ( maybe less) to organize, compile, arrange, write, copy and rehearse prior to the opener on Friday night. ...and max is as nice as he is amazing It was nice to meet you man!Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Even if you folks had only appeared for "Pieholden Suite," you'd have been the unsung heroes of the residency ... but every song you played on was greatly enhanced by your presence. I wasn't able to attend any of the shows but have been listening to recordings non-stop. And I'm excited that my brother will see you guys in DC at his first Wilco show!

LouisvilleGreg Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 At several points during the week, there were 11 members of Wilco on stage. The Band, 4 Total Pros + A. Bird. That's more than the E Street Band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

barnyard pimp Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I echo the sentiments of all preceding statements! The third night, "Hate it Here" finally found its horn groove and it blew my mind right out. That's just one example, but pretty much any song y'all touched was enhanced for the better. Fantastic work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
