afterthefact Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hey, I'm new to the board, and just thought I'd say... hey. I'm a huge Wilco fan, along with many other bands of course; I'm not obsessive or anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for the opportunity to use it! ) I've spent a long time on the Sonic Youth board and still survived, so I should be fine here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

afterthefact Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 Sonic Youth are overrated. I completely agree. They are very creative, but then again, it's easy to write good songs when you use so many alternate tunings that you could throw your guitar on the ground and write a song with the sound (which they do, a lot). But the people there have some cool tastes in music and art, so I hang there for the new findings... Unlike SY, I really do love Wilco. I finally got my wife to love them too. She was resistant, not because of their music, but because I am so obsessed with music in general that she feels she needs to fight it for my attention (which is not true, of course). But she watched the DVD the other day and is now head over heals for them. Plus, I think she's got a crush on John Stirratt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doug C Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Plus, I think she's got a crush on John Stirratt My wife HAS a crush on John Stirrat, less so when he has a beard. I may be wrong but I think that the Sonic Youth comment was testing if you 'may be too sensitive for the internet'! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doug C Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Dude, forgive me. I seriously assumed that you were riffing on what I said since you immediately said that SY were overrated when he mentioned them. An easy mistake. Whatever your personal reasons were for your post are obviously unknown to me. Forgive me for trying to be funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
